I'm getting a hotel obviously. Who else is down? For those who haven't been, it's a blast. However, this is gonna be the first time (in recent memory) when it's not being held at the Ocala Speedway. The Ocala Jeep Club knows how to put on a show, and always had awesome courses of different skill levels. I'm sure even though we're going to a new venue, they'll still make a heck of a good time happen! Now, Let there be Cherokees!!!!!

 

Will probably try and make it out.

 

We will see I Couldn't make it last year but I could try this year.

 

hopefully itll be better this year at laest its closer..market of marion is pretty big last time is was ther ,there was a zoo there but that was a while ago.maybe there should be some good obstaclesand like u said let there MORE cherokees!!!

 

ill be there in my xj!!!

 

Quick question, in this event is it off road users only because I've got 20's on my '96 ( I know that it's unfortunate ) but I would really love to try to make it!

 

no any body 18yrs or older can run the corse

 

Im sorry I guess I didn't word that right lol what I meant is I have 20 inch rims on my '96 and I was wondering if I could even make it through any of the stuff that's on the course lol

 

Do you care if you scratch the rims?

 

I suppose not lol my main goal at this point is to try to get a 4" lift on it that way I can find me some 36's to put on it

 

i knew wat you meant i was just sayin that it doesnt matter what you bring as long as you older then 18 lol

 

Bustedknuckle, where did you end up booking to sleep? We wanted to stay in a camper at Southern Oaks but they are booked except for tent area. We might just do that. ..

 

Ill be there!

 

They normally have a mild course that you should be able to do

 

pulled this from another forum:
"For you stockers, the stock course is right at a mile long. There is one good sand hill where you will need 4wd. Of course you will have plenty of opportunities to flex your suspension.

For the moderate crowd, the course is also longer then in the past. You will drop down into the woods and immediately test your flex and ability to navagate the trees. Once you exit the trees you will need to navagate a series of holes and a K rail. After the K rail you will make a sharp turn and drop into a hole (your roof will be even with the top of the hole) which upon climbing out brings you to the rock garden. Next come a series of steps , k rails, etc leading to the exit. If it rains plan on having trouble getting out of the hole. Requirements I believe are 33's and hopefully you might have a traction aid.

For the extreme crowd, you follow the intermediate course through the woods and exit to the extreme course. From there it is amazing what they have done. All I can say is good luck. The rock pile actually goes up a hill."
