Well that's a bugger. Don't go trying to sue McDonalds because the coffee was too hot.

How did this happen? From the picture, there is a dirt pile a little ways away, but it mostly looks like your rig just fell over.

Am I correct in assuming no harm done, provided you got the motor shut down very quickly?

Based on the equipment - I assume you were NOT traveling so fast you tipped over in a curve.. Care to enlight us what happened?

Looks like you may have got some more of that experience you mentioned in you sig. ;)
I hope everyone and everything is ok.

Hope everything and everyone came out OK on that one. Looks like a rough way to start a day.

WOW, I would have thought that a company as big as Cat would have a coffee cup holder on their machines. :D

Not only a cup holder, but an articulated swivel cup holder so that you still would not spill your drink when something like this happens.:eek: Hopefully all is well and no serious damage occurred to anybody or anything.

Probably just trying to see if it was a boy or a girl. :)

Well see, now that you've found the degree in which it tips (you did jot that # down while you were going over, didn't you ?), just back off one notch and you'll be good to go.

Trying to get at those nasty zerks on the underside?

Rice krispies and beer,snap, crackle, and burp. Not just for breakfast any more!

If would have kept going 1/2 length of track further would have landed on its feet!
