Oh yes there are more trails than pits. But yes the big attraction is the big trucks goin thru the ponds. But theres over a million acres of trails, if you arent sattisfied with the weeling at powerline you wont be sattisfied period. And yes it is one big party lol but plenty of wheeling

Yep I stay away from those places on memorial day or labor day. Another weekend would be cool sometime.

Wellsville has that crap also. I say crap because thats what I think of it.

Don't get me wrong. I used to be knee deep in that crap(party atomosphere) Just not any more. Been there done that, got the t-shirt and the scars.

Sorry guys but I have to brag these tires up. I have had tsl, mtz, federal's, bfgoodrich, firestone mt, dick cepek, truxus, just off the top of my head. These Techno remolds are the best off road tire I have ever owned bar NONE!! Its like haveing tractor tires that actually do good everywhere else. Whats awesome is I can go through areas and never spin a tire. much easier to pull lines. Have just over a thousand miles on them and I have no wear. I do have some pealing on the back two tires for some reason? Does not seem to effect anything. Right by the bead. I tried to peal it further but its impossible, it seems to be just a 1mm thin layer that came off by the bead. Front two tires are perfect.

The pictures were from today. I had 8lbs in the rear tires, and 10lbs in the front tires in every picture.

Pulled this little line up a creek bank and never spun a tire even though it had rained a bunch. They just clean out great. Must be the angled lugs?

Still have the longevity to report on later. Anyways some pix from today.

Simex are the originals. Number one competition tire almost anywhere else in the world for serious off road/mud, etc....

The copies I have are Techno xcavators. They use an old tire and re coat it.

Its an awesome compound they use. I just hope they keep wearing like they currently are. And don't fall apart on me! LOL

They make car tires to for sport cars and such.

Also this mud terrain.
