What kind of wheeling we looking at? Blue? Green? Both? I know my guys are going to be on black because they have th rigs to do it. So if we do two days maybe I will do one day with you guys and one day with them.

no, i have to run up 2.5 hours to school to grab video equipment, then 3.5 hours to RC, then back to school and then home. the 6 hour one way drive isnt worth the one day of wheeling i'd be doing since i'm filming the comp saturday.

no it's a 2.2 old lady model, but i swapped in some sick jdm parts and it can keep up with sti's

actually sam, its not though it does have some JDM parts

Ride went well over all....we had fun most of the time until I thought I was on trail 11 and wound up on a trail that was not even a trail. We made it pretty easily down 3/4th's of the trail until the end were there was a huge mud pit, I made it though but ltlgreenxj got caught on a log and bogged down in the pit. Tow straps were pretty useless and we had to call for a winch. Took us about 3 or 4 hrs total to get everyone turned around and back up the trail we came down. Looking back on the experience i learned quite a few things and it was nice to work as a team to figure out how to get someone un stuck. The down side was the bugs, sun, mud, and the bees nest we stirred up and got stung a few times.

I think ltlgreenxj has pics of his stuck they would be interesting to see!

I was there with the NAXJA group, saw ktmracer419's XJ at the Comfort Inn where I stayed. Pretty fearsome Jeep, ktm. I spoke to your friend for a few minutes. Guys looked at me all weekend like I had 2 heads or something ...
Here we are ... 1 head, lotsa armor. I didn't get too many pics because my passenger didn't make the trip & I was busy driving.
