I'm not saying that to dissuade people from coming, but more to let everyone know that it will be VERY important to maintain general good trail protocol.

I'm sure that people will be breaking up into groups, but there's a LOT of crossover space out at Reiter. The area will be BUSY.


BE SAFE! PAY ATTENTION!
(and yeah... "Let's be careful out there!")


This thing is hovering right around 8.5 on the Madhouse Scale. It's going to be tre important that everyone wait their turn, watch out for others and keep a sense of general good humor about them.

Come on out! The majority of folks that are coming won't be in FJ's, a couple will even be in buggies!

So how many rigs do you expect on the traill? I would like to see the FJs wheel but it might be hard if I'm in the back of a line of 15 rigs.

So far it seems like there are 10 or so that have posted that they are going.

WATTRD? Any ideas? Thanks.

Plus 20 or so from another message board, not to mention the random public that will no doubt turnout.

We have 32 WATTORA members saying they are going, and many many more from other forums. There is the potential for there to be A LOT of rigs/people.

However, our plan is to not send the FJ's off on one run with a hundred rigs, instead we will be sending them off on 10 shorter runs with 10 rigs. You get the idea. If everyone is patient and helps out, we are hopeful we can get everyone some time with the FJ's.

Sounds like a good plan.

I hope you don't mind an XJ tagging along - one of the passengers is an FJ owner.

Thanks for the info.

I just got off the phone with Gustaf, the lead driver. They are here

They have one rig with an electrical gremlin that is going to keep it in the parking lot. Then they have what is usually the "pretty" rig and it will be doing loops around the power lines and on the easier stuff. Finally, they have the built out rig and he said he would take that on any trail we wanted to run...
