2007 Lone Star Toyota Jamboree

[79coyotefrg]

from the Texas  website

Here's the itinerary:

Thursday, January 11th: The Park will open at 6:00 PM Thursday for early arrivals only if they have pre-registered.

Those pre-registered early arrivals may only set up camp, there is absolutely no wheeling permitted Thursday.

Friday, January 12th: Free Range, meaning the park is yours to explore. There will be experienced Trail Guides available to show you around at a level and pace you are comfortable with. Friday night there will be night runs ranging from easy scenic rides to extreme madness in the moonlight!

Saturday, January 13th:

8:30 AM: Mandatory driver's meeting at the Pavilion. The organized, 'guided' runs will begin no later than 9:00AM.

12:00 PM: Meet back up at the Pavilion (south of the rock garden) for a group picture and to meet our sponsors and visitors from Toyota.

1:00PM: The events begin- these will be fun events with something for everyone:

A "Time Trial" trail run utilizing staggered starts, winner has best time through the end of Spider's Ravine!

A "Trust Your Spotter" blind folded run: Another timed event, this will to be a moderate to difficult run through the Rock Garden!

A "Powder Puff" run (for those who have signed up), so the wives/GF's who don't ever get to wheel have the opportunity to compete on a light trail with an experienced Trail Guide leading the group.

At 4:00PM, the "Texas Twister Challenge" will start as the highlight of the competition. A timed event as well, IFS and a single rear locker won this event in October!

Around 6:00PM, we'll meet at the Pavilion for Texas style BBQ, some awards & honorable mentions and of course, the raffle!

Then we all can rest, repair & prepare for the night run!

Sunday, January 14th: Free Range to continue exploring the park. BMRA closes at 7:00PM.

Bring plenty of film (and parts), this promises to be a blast for vehicles and drivers of every level!

ok,  friday we wheeled  all over the the  far end of the park,  i tried to  wheel with them  but  my truck  is just not  enough truck to wheel with those  guys,  they have 37" tires,  on bead locks  and locked front and rear,  im just locked out back  and  on 32's 

well if i get dressed  i can go get the camera  and start posting pics

i didnt manage  to get up there in time to get picks  when Marlin went thru,  but of course  he walked right thru it 

[79coyotefrg]

and his rear diff at this point started  popping  and  jumping,    when the  pathetic welds from the previous owner  broke ,
  Marlin and I  fixed  what we could  saturday

[79coyotefrg]

[79coyotefrg]

 

just after this pic  he slid into the crack  but  with a little  help  from  my expert spotter skills  he was  thru  and  at the top

[79coyotefrg]

and here is Dennis Fant,  sitting on 36 iroks

he doesnt compute,  but lives about 40 minutes  from me and Brendan

[79coyotefrg]

i didnt get a pic  of Dennis's  passenger door  but  he's in the  market  for a new one

[Lady Di]

[DTB]

  COOL!

[79coyotefrg]

Marlin working on  Jeff's aka captain J 's  4runner  rear 3rd,   MAN that 3rd  was junk,  after  we had pulled it apart  and cleaned it up,  Marlin was busy welding it up RIGHT, and i was cleaning the bearings  when i noticed cracks in the pinion teeth

[79coyotefrg]

the person that "tried"  to  weld it up the first time  tack welded  the side gears to the carrier 

[79coyotefrg]

our  work  facilities

it was my idea  to put the truck on the trailer,   had we not,  he would have been covered in mud, since  after the rain started it washed a couple inches of red mud under the canopy
