Had a great time, ya'll. I buffed the tree scrapes out of my Jeep this morning- it looks just fine. 2 weekends of off roading in a row were a bit much for it, I think.

Anywya, here are the pics:

Can't wait till the next run! Hopefully by the next time we go I'll be running 245s (either the MT/Rs from the Rubicon or some Dueler A/T Revos) and a 2" Budget Boost (BB))

Yo, mike had some balls, he got stuck in the same pit that JP got stuck in .... and then after he gets stuck, and pulled out .... he jumps right back in there again there was a chick watching ... he had no other choice ... but he got a lot further then I thought he would.

The T100, and the jeeps did a great job ( I still don't get the jeep thing) ... I wish I could have seen what mine could do with the new tires. next time.

Guys I had a great time, hopefully we can do it again soon when rob gets back, and mike gets his lift.

Hopefully no snakes this time

Their coming...
I gotta go through all my pics and take the res down a bit on them before I can post them. The 4 megapixels are a bit much for internet posting. All are available at high-res by e-mail. I'll have them up by Friday.

Hey Andrew, do you have Brian's contact info? I'd like to e-mail him if you do. Thanks!

Heck, my composite skid plate held up just fine, just a little dented! What I want to know is where to find a new rocker panel.

Yeah, Shavad had a great encounter with a snake. 'Bout bit him until he jumped into the creek to get away.

hey guys is there another place to go wheeling .. someone mentioned something in southern indiana? or maybe a camping trip to kentuky?

lets try to get something together for the end of next month.

Mike- get your lift in
Joel- forget the rocker panel, and get sliders
Andrew- try to figure out that jeep thing =) j/k
Jp- you have to make it out this time, wasn't the same without ya
Rob- rip off those running boards, get some tires and get up here

I just wanna go soon, b/c I didn't get to drive my rig this time

Yea I tried to take them off today actually, the freakin bolts are on wayyy too tight, wouldn't freakin move. I plan on taking them off and leaving them off for good once I get up there, kinda looking into sliders

Shazad when do you get ur bumper? and when you gonna install the sways? A run at the end of next month sounds cool.

Mike when you gettin ur lift in? Hopefully I can get one by the end of this year.

Shazad: SNAKE! Right behind you!!

Anyway, that said... let me know when ya'll are up for another run. I've got really full weekends for the next month, but I can probably pencil something in. I'm going to Texas for about a month starting in late June. But I'll be back. I'll look into the place in southern IN. It would be closer to me.

hey-
the coil overs are coming on thursday, hopefully. But I'm going out of town on friday and when I get back I'm flooded at work for the next two weeks ... but I'll get them in some time, along with the bumper.
lets try to do something for the 21sy of june. B/c the following weekend I'm going on vacation and I won't be back till mid july. That gives everyone like 4 weeks to get there stuff put in, and give the rigs a little rest.
hey Andrew let Brian know also, and see if he wants to come again.

I won't be able to make any runs in June... however, I should be able to make one in July. Any takers on late July? The weather will suck then though...

Hey Andrew... Brians's contact info?
