Hey man, whats going on? I see theres not a whole lot of traffic running through here. Its a shame, it is a nice website that you set up.
Looking at your big rig pics what the hell were you hauling that you needed that many axles under a trailer? And, what was the weight?
How the hell did you mange to turn that thing, or do those axles pivot? I ran a Tri-axle International for a while and with that lift axle down that sorry POS only wanted to go straight.

We are just off to a slow start. That's partly my fault for not posting more here. I'm not too concerned about that yet. I've seen slow starts before. I've been pretty busy with two weeks of vacation that end at 5AM Sunday morning. I'll be in here more fairly soon.

From 2000 to 2005 I used to run GM engine blocks, heads and cranks out of the GM Defiance, OH foundry to Lansing and Metro Detroit. Also ran brake rotors from the Auburn foundry in Indiana to Saginaw - Delphi. We were running mostly A trains that pivot like what UPS, FedEx, and Roadway. We also had Canadian B trains that didn't pivot and could back up if you knew how.

The Foundry casts the Hummer diesel engines and I would run those in to Michigan for their initial machining. Those things were massive, The cylinder walls had to be an inch thick all the way around.

Oh, the weight on those things was usually a gross of 145,000. But we went as high as 160,000 with a double axle converter or an eight axle 53 foot van. We could put as much as 45,000 net in each pup. It was fun while it lasted.

Damn thats a lot of weight behind you.

Yeah, I understand its off to a slow start, I`m just trying to do my part to pitch in.

Thanks, we'll be doing better soon. I've been seeing a bunch of people stopping in from doing a search off of Google, Yahoo, etc. The traffic should certainly be there in the near future.

I've been wanting to a quick synopsis of each show for what Spike airs on both Saturday and Sunday. I'll try to get in tomorrows Sunday lineup or at least get started with next weekend.

I also have a bunch of pictures to share here too.

Harold if need help here let me know!

Yeah, it is off to a slow start, I havnt been getting on here that much. As we get more members, it could just create a type of chain-reaction thing. The more members we get, the more other people will join

Ugh. I just spent two days offline after my dialup fell apart on me.

Raynutt, If you have the time to post new topics on the upcoming weekend's shows, that would be great. They would have to be in your own words since we don't want to infringe on any copyrighted stuff. Maybe we could split some of them up between us.
