Thank you,
Watching the video and my RR, probably could have used a little more left foot braking to get the VC to lock up, but the nerf bars on the sliders made it easier on the first attempt to pivot the truck for a better line and i could probably have aired down my tires a little more. (i was running about 20 psi, but on this trip without the RTT and camping gear) Its a fine balance, around 17 or 18psi works well, but i do run the risk of having dust in the bead causing my tyres to obviously loose pressure.

I have run John Bull several times and this was definitely the most challenging following the trail maintenance the week before.

Will you be at the NR in Leadville ?
Have you run Mosquito Pass (Red Cone, Radical Hill) ?
I'll be looking to do the mining tour Tin Cup, Cumberland, Alpine Tunnel, Hancock Pass to see the sights but also looking for trail recommendations for the 3rd trail day.

Nicely done! Looks like a fun trip.
I also did a recent trip video.
Not nearly the same caliber, but fun all the same.

Enjoyed the video, not so sure about that trail not being of the same caliber

In response to some of the PM's here is link to some excellent technical info on lifts, coil conversions and suspension mods
