Hey this is Sean, I had a great time with everyone this weekend. It was my trucks maiden voyage. To those who made this happen great work on putting it together. It was great to meet everyone and hope to wheel with everyone pretty soon. To the mammoths very nice of you guys to make the trip and hang out with us. Same to the other out of staters. Oh and on "That Guy" there is always gonna be one just make sure you're not it.

Thanks Arkie! It was great to be there and excellent advice on "That Guy"
It is one thing to be "That Guy" with a few too many under your belt, but when you are still "That Guy" the next morning...

you wont have to worry about "That Guy"  again  he has been from the Park

He is being banned from the park permanantly just as soon as I can track down a phone number. This was his last chance.  He has been nothing but trouble the 3-4 times he has been down.  I'd love to give you credit, but he already crossed the line by even showing up for this event. He had explicit directions on what he needed to do if he ever showed his sorry ass around here again.

hey Jake     BJ  , the park manager won  your prize,  he has a early tacoma,   shortbed,  i was telling him yesterday about your plate bumpers, 

[Oddmar]

Ok, well, i CAN build him a plate bumper, but the raffle was for a tube bumper, tire carrier, or cargo rack. If he wants a big ram bumper i'll have to charge him for it, and just deduct the cost of a tubing bumper from the total...or build him a rear tubing bumper, and charge him for the front plate one, i dunno.

He'll have to contact me and work it out.

So, d'jall have fun?

[Lady Di]

I have both on video. Mark did them both open in 2WD.

[BUBBA]

After seeing how easy it was for mark i didn't even wanna get dirty for it.

[1Armedman]

Hey Amigos,

This is Ed from Dallas.  My g/f and I thoroughly enjoyed the weekend and can't wait to return for next year's event.  Thanks to all involved in setting it up for the rest of us.

[ArkieToy85]

So here are a few pics of the stock vehicles running some 2s.

Taking a break at the waterhole...


After that me, Paul, and Terry wanted to try something a little harder. We talked to BJ and he said to try the Rubicon and Fun Run. Those were some sweet trails.





This is Bailey's Rock. Its rated as a 5. This picture just doesn't seem to do justification for it though. I got up it with a lil more skinny pedal.

[Lady Di]

pictures never do the trails justice. I'm hoping some video will help.

[79coyotefrg]

Me too   Well at least I got it on video.

cause she was   

[Lady Di]

cause she was   

I never said I wasn't. In fact I've been saying for years that I like an excuse to get out and video tape.
you honestly can not get good video from inside the cab, and if I get out and get the good video on the challenging trails because I am a then all the better.

[Lady Di]

ANd I do love the walking and exercise involved in that.

[BUBBA]

so how long we gotta wait for the video

[Lady Di]

  getting a little impatient there, aren't we? I don't get home from work till 6:30, then I have dinner to make and am trying to get the LBC cleaned out a little each night as well.
Then I have at least 3 weeks worth of clothes to wash, not to mention we're starting on the house project again and the lawn needs to be whacked and mowed.
you will have it as soon as I get a chance to breath.
