june 16th TN gtg,4 cube build off ,racing ,general cookie cutting ,food and fun

[morewood]

some of you that dont think the 562xp is up to its reputation must not have ran one yet. no it wont replace my falling saws but it has worked it way into my line up of saws. it resides on the skidder making its self indespensable at work. the ported 562xp with the same 20'' bar and chain is faster than a 372xp,372xpw,ms440,7900. these are the only saws ive ran it against side by side same wood same bar and chain. there will always be exceptions to the rule with any stock saw. some just run like a ported saw right out of the box but for the average run of the mill 70cc saw this saws going to be smoother ,lighter,faster and more fuel efficient. i dont claim the 562 to be the cure for cancer but dont knock it until youve ran it. as far as i know theres only a handful of ported 562's out there so i dont see how so many of you can have an opinion of them yet. i also cant figure out how my gtg thread got off on a this saws better than that saw tangent. i told morewood that my 562 would spank his 440 and it did,no more no less. theres no lines to read between here its plain out in the open fact of the matter. saw was run by morewood in the same red oak . i got my donut and he got to run a great saw.

Guys, the above comment has been verified....and yes, he got the donut. I have run a variety of saws, and the power to weight ratio was unbelievable for Terry's 562. I ran both 562XPs yesterday (stock and modified), and there was a VERY noticeable difference. My dad, who wasn't there, seemed concerned that a smaller saw ran soooooo much stronger than the 440. It might have to go under the tool before long On a completely different note, I know a few of you were taking pics yesterday and am looking for one of me and my son doing some cutting. I had him over near the shed cutting some softwood with the small Husky. If you guys find any I would love to have some, to me that was a great Father's Day gift, time with my son......and some of you If you find any pics let me know and I will get you my email. Terry, thanks again for such a great time.

Stumpy,


1.) What are your thoughts of winning the Landrum's 4 cube build off?

2.) What was your strategy going into this?

3.)What made you choose a husqvarna saw to participate?:msp_biggrin:

4.) Would you change anything now, since you own the winning saw? :msp_wink:

5.) Give us your thoughts..................

My stock 044 ran a 3.06 in the build off cant with an off the roll RSC chain. What did that 562 run again?

You have a stock saw?

Why yes, yes I did. Guido should be posting the proof soon.

So what are we going to do if you guys shave? :msp_sad:

Good question, guess we need to keep the ladies more involved in these GTG's.

Things I learned this weekend.

1. "Just off the Interstate" has a very different meaning in Kentucky.
2. There doesn't appear to be a bordello in Pleasureville.
3. Guido isn't a guido. :msp_sneaky:
4. Durand needs to make an appointment with ___________. oke:
5. The price of diesel that Indiana gas stations post on their big signs have no relation to what you actually pay.
6. Jeremy links to fiddle with his saw. A lot.

 

[little possum]

If things align, maybe next time a small group of gypsies will travel from the flatland of NC up to the hills of TN.
Hate to miss out on a GTG that is so close. But then again, most of our saws are antique junk

I added some names for some of these pictures. We should have had a group picture made so it would have been easier to identify us.

One of the diesel prices listed is for "off road" or tax exempt.

I thought the same thing driving through there a few months ago and paying 30 cents or more than what was listed.

1. 20 miles isn't far at all down here where you can't see your destination.
2. You just haven't looked in the right place.
3. Guido isn't a short stocky Italian guy with a sharp tongue. He is a tall thin southern gentleman and a great guy to hang out with at GTGs.
4. Yes he does! TOMORROW
5. That is called "Bait & Switch"
6. Jeremy is a tech geek and learned volumes at this GTG! You will see the results at future GTGs.

Thanks again for helping me get to and from the GTG!
You are truly a great friend.

Yeah but seems a little ridiculous to be posting your off road price on the interstate. I've never seen another state do that.

I learned what a Wendell is. Tried to repeat the story to Jer and couldn't remember. Blame the blackberries.

I learned bar oil is VERY important!!

I learned that no matter what, Jer will never quit talking about saws

I learned most of the wives of these crazy men are actually normal and nice

I learned not to listen to Hedgerow about the crown. It WILL burn!!

I learned the Virginia people are very cool!!

It was my pleasure, my friend. I enjoyed getting to spend more time with you.
