    After an off road accident I will no longer be able to make it to GSW. I am now in rehab in vallejo CA. I was up on a trail that was too small for the rig I was driving and things got hairry and had to turn around. The snow was melting and turning to ice under the trees and one thing let to another and I woke up in the ICU. Truck went end over end down a 500 ft cliff and I was out cold in the snow for 2 and a half hours till another off roader saw my truck from another trail. I shaddered my T13-14 and can no longer use anything from my waist down. So for now I guess GSW has gotta wait. Guys have fun and be safe!!

    crap man, sorry to hear about your accident!!I really need to look into getting a cage soon, these unitbodys are not the best in a roll over

    hopefully you will eventually be able to get in a rig with a hand throttle/controls or something.

    Are you Mark, Morgans brother? I know Brendan and he was telling me about an accident just like this one.

    Hope you get better, just take it easy I know it will take time.

    Thanks guys, its tuff but I know I gotta keep going. I was checking into hand controls today, even tho I'm still in rehab I still gotta think about things to do when I get out. Im not going to let this stop me from going off road I love it and would not let a little screw up stop me from doing somthing I love. Thanks for all the support guys! Ill post up some pics of the rig when I get a chance.

    Cue-Ball, yea thats me!!!!

    There is a guy here in SLC named Clay Egan who drives in the UROC pro series and is paralyzed from the waist down. He uses a specialized hand throttle/brake setup to drive. I can get you his contact information if you like.
