| Dodd or Jerry might have sac as big as the tires on my truck, and take me up places I might cry...But thats the kind of riding they like....Different strokes for different folks. They might do 20-30 miles in a day on 1-2 trails, but I would rather cover some ground and be at a good pace covering 60-70 miles in a day trip. Funny thing that half of you talk crap about me have never even met me....I've led more rides than I can count, and everyone has always been happy. I am always nice to everyone in person, even if all you do is talk crap about me, my machine, or whatever on the web....I want everyone to have a good time, or I would not be leading the rides. I hope you put the S bumper on my butt and follow me wherever I want to go....Cause I won't leave anyone in the woods, I have even towed 2 SxS's at a time that was broke down. I beat on my machine pretty good, and it never lets me down.....and I love it, I have spent many hours working on it, and I'm happy with it, I built my motor myself, I do all the work on it, maitenance, etc......I love my machine....thats all that matters, and riding. It irritates me when 95% says my buggy won't run 0-whatever speed....when you have not rode in it or been with me. I invite anyone to come ride with me whenever you want....I am always up for a ride.

| See , you are Mad.... you missed the whole point. if you built your own motor at your age i am proud of you. and i mean that... all i am saying is just tone it down a little on these forums. fit in and be one of the guy's , not try to be the leader of the pack. it won't fly here or the other place. you may not mean to. but you got to realize your 15 years old. and you talk with authority to 35 year old guy's how to build motors. and you have built one... and then you say one of the most treacherous hills at Brimstone is no big deal.. and you did it three times.. I done a lot of crazy crap in my day , and i ant in no hurry to run up 75Y and very few people are. But you did it three times and said it was not that bad. Come on... people are finding it hard to take you Serious , and even harder if you say stuff like this. like i said just fit in and grow into it. ever since you been on these boards you been wide open. Chill out and enjoy the ride. and don't be so defensive when someone is just trying to help you out... I have met you , and i think your a good kid , just chill out a little. and stop trying to be so bold all the time... | |

| Heck I enjoyed riding the wimpy farm across the street tonight, after I cleaned the weekend mud off. I let the air of Big R's trailer for the heck of it too, while I was over there. | |

| Everyone,
I have been to Brimstone once but never done trail 75Y. Just how steep is this hill and does anyone know what the grade is approximately? Does anyone have a video? I have done some steep scary hills before, but now Im interested! Perhaps when we go to Brimstone in May, a few of us can go look at it? I have hit some steep hills at Big Rock in Maysville KY and down on the Stanton, KY area and it damn near scared the crap out of me, more adrenaline than Im used to. So please, lets hear all the details of this so-called 75-Y. I want details and experiences, my adrenals and sac-nad juice is flowing! Lets hear it!

| Well 75y is pretty steep, at the top its all you can do to hold onto trees if your walking it, here is a teryx that tried it a few weeks ago. pictures and video never gives you a real since of the steepness of grades <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/W59axX6qQHU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> | |

| The first time I climbed it I had been drinking, on a 4 wheeler, around 1:00am. Not something I am anxious to do again under the same circumstances. There were 4 of us. The guy on the honda had to have help. It has gotten worse since then. | |

| I've climbed it several times before and I realy don't care to do it again. When we went up last year you had to go to the right side because of the ruts and I was packing the front tires at the top. Yes it's steep!! | |

| DoddS,
Is your avatar of Fred Sanford dreaming of being the pimp that he never was. I cant recall of him in all of thos episodes ever having much money. i think he did win a small lottery once, but I think it gave it to the church or something. I love that show. LeMont, you Dummy!

| Assumming the trees are verticle, if you lay the edge of a piece of paper along the ground line and draw a line straight down from one of those trees, the angle of the trees to the groundline, it appears that the slope is about 2.5:1 or about 40% Grade. Thats pretty damn steep! The owners manual only suggests to go up to 15% max! I will see if I can use the same methodolgy on one of the videos from my trip to Big Rock. | |

| I know my analysis is very crude, but from what Im able to gather, 75Y may be about the same or a little steeper than what I rode. I will definetly have to give it a try. It looks like the hardest part will be having to steer left and right and keep the wheels at a constant speed. The hill I went up was pretty straight. | |

| i have climbed many hills steeper than 75Y but they was straight or only had one turn and you can get a run at it. you cannot get a good run at 75Y and there is turns and it is rutted bad. | |
