Post Who's bringing a long tail ?
Who else is bringing their long tail rigs to the mud run? Last year only saw myself and two other rigs . Yes I know slower rides on the runs between ponds but I had a blast playing in all that mud last year.

I'll be there bringing up the rear lol...

I'm pretty much done hunting this season after this weekend, trying to get the boat back in shape for this ride and to do some fishing this spring in general...

Y'all jokers better have a tow rope for me haha.... My trash barge doesn't like the mud...

I'm on the fence right now, I'd like to go eat some SD's but it would cost me a few hundred that I don't wanna spend right now.

Post Re: Who's bringing a long tail ?
I suggest all the longtails plan on launching together and go from there. Either that or we can all group up across the river and ride in together.

There's a good place to run up past the mud flat everyone else will be at we could hit up before going where they are. Hopefully the weather isn't too terrible tomorrow like they say it is and I can go run my turd and see if I fixed anything.

Bring it anyway. , plenty of knowledgeable hands will be on deck Friday evening and sat morning. , could maybe troubleshoot your problem or know exactly what to adjust or re rig. . At the worst you bum a ride and have a blast anyway .

Post Re: Who's bringing a long tail ?
yeah, you gotta point. Friday evening depends on work and how quick I can get done but Sat has already been planned. Hopefully I can avoid all that and its fixed, just waiting on me to run it. I sure hope so. I'm pretty tired of jacking with it lol.

Ran it... Gained about 100-200rpm with the throttle adjustment. Ran like a SOB. Buddy showed up and met me at the boat ramp and all hell broke loose... Same thing. Maybe even worse than before.

For sale sign on it as of right now... Fuck this thing.

Post Re: Who's bringing a long tail ?
I really don't know what I'm gonna do with it. The sign is on it and it's sitting in front of the house by the highway. All I know is I'm tired of beating my head on it. It's been acting up for almost 3 months. You name it, I've tried it. Short of just saying screw it and putting an electric pump on it or replacing the carb all together. Fedthefugup....

All I know is if someone were to offer me even close to what I have in it it'll be a gone POS.

I brought a. 16gdlt last year. That's plenty enough to have fun in the ponds. , a little longer ride between ponds but no big deal. .

Kirk, I'm bringing a 16 gdlt on a 1436 that's built like a tank and can't seem to break out of he 15mph bracket so from I'm seeing is so far im bring up the rear. but I look at it as screw it I'm on the water enjoying myself for a lot less that those guys trying to break the 30+ club. No harm intended fast guys.LOL. it is what it is. I could have a hand crank egg beater sticking out of the back of my boat so it could be worse.

I messed up royally...I sold my airboat this past Friday, and ordered my MB SLT today. They said it would be 3 weeks before they would have it ready to ship.

I've never ran a LT in that soup before, and would like to give it a try. Y'all have fun, be safe, post videos, and hopefully there'll be one more LT there in 2015!
