JD how was it? big rocks little rocks?
We ran into a former EDSB guy at red creek...guy seemed like an arse and was bad mouthing DSEB Club, didnt pay much attention to him, especially after we found him on his side in a deep pit.... looked like he was sporting about 9" of lift and 36's...a brown ragged out Early Bronco, looked trailered only...
Yeah the trails were nice, our adventure home was interesting, and we had a great time.
I'd like to go back and play when the blazer is finished and hope the carnage is a little less...its ALOT of mud....

ahh bad mouthing...can't please'em all. the trails were 80% dirt/20% rocks, some very twisty sections, steep hill climbs, varying from easy to WTF glad I had the SX's to ride with this trip. they have a mud pit, a tire challenge, timed hill climb, rock garden and a mud track with some jumps too...they are definitley set up!
I have a few pics I need to upload, here's one of my carnage, but there was a LOT worse than me! on the way up, I had a trailer tire that wanted to go back to the house, hehe...had to do a recovery mission, all is well again.

Sounds good, I was a bit disappointed with redcreek's varaying terrain, there wasn't a whole lot...still more stuff that can get technical...
The bad mouthing was mostly about the club being all show no go....shiney pristine trucks that they wouldnt wheel...i watched the guy walk across his hood and dent it, he told us when winching if it fell on its side to keep dragging etc etc...he had little respect for his rig's sheetmetal....personally with classic sheetmetal I like to see them wheeled but i also expect some of these 30 yr old suckers to look sharp as well
To each his own...

thanks again for the help with the pic, I'll figure it out one day, lol..
well, he used to be right about the DSEB rigs. but, I doubt I'll ever walk across my hood maybe he had too much liquid courage
sorry to hear about Patricks luck, we definitely have to get together (clubs) Dave sets up gears and I do cages/bumpers and fab stuff. needless to say I'll be fabbing up some exo-skel bars to keep me off those banks! looked and sounded baaaad, but not as bad as I thought. |

that is a nice little scuff
GEARS:
Thats a strong word to mention in this area right now, i think we figured we have about 6 sets that need to be set up and were hoping to let one gear man do it and just work out some kind of group deal. Here is what we need.
carl -- frt r&P setup 93? Jeep Grand
jeff -- frt & rear r&p D60 ff rear and d44 front
kris -- frt & rear r&p installs both GM 10 bolts
Me(Josh) -- frt r&p on a d44
Edit:
Oh yeah 7 now
Patrick -- frt r&p on HPd30
