| got my DIG unit installed ..... DIG mounted on tranny   DIG installed in the R1 ... a peek from the rear  moved all my electronics to the front so i can have my battery pack in-board ..... one problem was that the ESC needed some vent .... i added some spacers to the hood panels to give the GOAT some space to breathe  updated pics   |

| Got some Rock Crawling time in Ras Al Khaimah ...... The crawl spot looked good ..... beach side ..... its just so relaxing to crawl at the same time here the waves coming in the shore ...... the rocks were a bit slippery compared to my crawl spot in Al Ain but ...... crawl time is always fun time ..... the crawl spot just parallel the main road after entering RAK ...     as to compared to my regular spot here in al ain .... i still enjoy the lines that the rock mountains of Al Ain has to offer ..... and its 5 mins away from where i stay ....  some DUNE shots   |
