Hey how is everyone? I've been so busy with work and my little one I haven't had time to get on. So what day are you guys leaving for Moab? I'm going to try and at least get out there.

Honest question, did you get the overheating under control and get some more aggressive tires on your rig? A moab run is a lot more serious than the run we did up to Forest lake. Your rig needs to be in great mechanical condition with decent tires (at the least) to run the trails in Moab.

Well I got the overheating taken care of but I wasn't able to get bigger tires christmas tapped me out. All in all I wasn't expecting too much out of my rig I've just never been to Moab even though I have lived here for 26 years.

The tires that I have have a fair amount of grip. They are not super aggressive but they have plenty of life on them.

First this is a open wheeling trip everyone is welcome to come
Second, Get on the trail's with us and we can see about getting you in club/group. We work by voting New Member's in as a group that's why it is important to get to know everyone on a personal freindship level first and foremost!, Desert Rat, Orvis Krawler,Built not Bought, Mike 20 and Zach Pullman(dont remeber his screen name) are the guy's who help me with this club we call A.T.R.Offroad SO, for the most part when we do trail run's come along that is the most important part I think.
Third... Moab trail run's include and are not limimted to
Hell's Revenge
Poison Spyder
Fins and Thing's (hopefully at night)
Cliff hanger
Moab Rim( depending on who want's to run it)
And I am open to suggestion's this is my wife and I's BDAY trip we would like to do it every year we just wan't freinds and family to be apart of it.
