this is just too funny. you gotta read this. from bad to worse to critical in a matter of hours.

NSRA forum - Bonneville Salt Flats. Boyd and Crew strikes again

some highlights of the firsthand reports-

jo (mrs) spins out almost hits the timing table at speed
they get the motorhome stuck.
3, yes 3 wreckers get stuck
1000+ feet of cable in tension, some bonehead from coddington's team DRIVES into the cable
wreckers are stuck like 4' into the mud under the salt
wreckers break booms

it's basicaly carnage on a grand scale.

see what happens when you think you're God Incarnate?

I'm with Mike. I think Boyd (the whole crew for that matter) are a bunch of pompus & condescending poop-chutes

I wouldnt buy anything (as if I could even afford it) that they build. Their work does not impress me one bit.

I would be steaming mad if those were wreckers that got stuck trying to pull those bunch of jerks out.

If I could pick one designer/builder to create me a car, it would be Chip Foose.

I'll have to admit I been on the rescuer end for a fellow tow operator that got stuck in the mud with his new '96 F350 wrecker,I pulled him out with a '89 F350 4x4 Diesel I'll have to roust some pics up.

dont like any of 'em...they all think theyre GOD...

I have never gotten that impression from Chip Foose. On the surface, he seems like a very compasionate and caring person.

And he can do some awesome work.

Troy Trepanier (RadRides) is another awesome custom car builder.

Couldn't have happened to a better guy.
I think, if you compare any "car builder" to Boyd, they will come out smelling like roses. He's talented....but, not nearly has good as he thinks he is.:2c
