Head count & vehicle count

[rpraterxj]

Please post how many folks in your party and list your rig.

Like this:

2 adults, 3 kids

1 XJ

Something like that.

Just trying to get an idea of people and rigs.

[Porch Puppy]

See if I can get this right:

2 adults

1 knife

[Carol.92124]

1 Adult (and vague chance of 1-2 teen daughters--Down, boys!!)

Eddie (my Rott/Shepherd mix)

1 XJ

Maybe the Egg, if I can borrow it. Egg=increased chance daughter/s will go with. They're anti-tent camping.

[skull_black]

3-4 adults

1 XJ

[Jes]

1 adult.

2 knives.

[GSequoia]

You have plenty of time to finish it.

[Goatman]

1 adult.

1 XJ (sort of)

[Bryan C.]

1 adult, maybe. Just depends how far onto the lake bed my Honda Accord can make it. :(

I lost my knife. :(

[karstic]

2 heads

1 adult

1 XJ

Do steak knives count?

How 'bout sporks?

[karstic]

Its the money part that might slow it down a bit....

Oh, and I'll bring my pocket knife with its dangerous 1-1/4" blade that needs to be sharpened, and my foldout Jeep knife. We'll have ourselves a wicked good time!!

[hollywood32]

2 xj's

1 Truck & Trailer

8 Knifes, 3 Numb Chucks, 2 Ninja Swords, and 1.5 Sporks!

[Carol.92124]

2 person

1 Grape

Are any friends with stock non-xj vehicles allowed? (Nissan Xterra)

I'd say all are welcome. As to whether there's something they'll want to run in their rig--have they wheeled before? Do they have street tires or AT/MTs? Any rock rails or any armor? Do they care about damage? What are they looking for out of the weekend? Will they be butt-hurt if someone says "sure they're welcome; we can always use winching practice!"? :laugh3:

There should be a "Bunny trail" run that I did in a stock XJ with 4 teens and a 75lb dog in it a few years ago; I only had to empty the other beings out of my rig once (and have 2 guys stand on my drivers side rock rails to get me to clear one rock I was stuck on). Even then, I think there was a bypass I chose not to take.

That being said, there's a lakebed full of bomb craters to nosedive into at high speed & destroy your front suspension & air bags while tossing your rack & spare off your roof (right, Kyung?); there's a huge sand dune; there's flat desert with a dirt-road full of whoops; there are areas all over to explore, and to hike around on. And lots of shenanigans to hang out and laugh at or be amazed at. I have been to JV 4 or 5 times, and always enjoy it, and have not driven a lifted vehicle on a trail there yet, except for bits of Bullfrog last Spring.

Come one, come all!

[HeepSpeed]

Great! I'll update my post accordingly.

[Zebaru]

1 person

1 buggy

i have no idea what this is, but i have an XJ, live in SoCal, and want to smash my rig on rocks...as long as i can drive home because its my DD http://forums.offtopic.com/images/smilies/ohnoes.gif

[XJ4Christ]

LOL I am a day late and a dollar short :P... I just started to read about this tonight :P.

I will talk this over with my wife. My rig is in pain atm, not sure if I can get it ready in time or not. I would like to check this out and meet some more NAXJA people :).

I will post again after I talk this out with the wife in morning before church heh.

As it stands though it would be:

2 adults
2 boys
1 teen (better make him two adult spots just kidding lol)

My 1990 XJ and or wife's YJ and or my truck with camper not sure yet :).

If I am able to make it out would be happy to help however needed.

Johnson Valley is a very large OHV area in the middle of the desert. No facilities of any kind but plenty of opportunity for wheeling and exploring. There will be a bunch of people in XJ's and other rigs wheeling and enjoying themselves. It's a great place to meet people if you're new.

Bringing them is one thing, but firing them off is another!

I hope you are 5+ miles away from camp if choose to shoot them.

[scottmcneal]

This was for mike, i was just F888ing with him..Sorry it didn't come over right..This was a wrong time to joke around..
Again i am sorry..

I WILL not shoot my GUNS in camp..

[GSequoia]

Bringing them is one thing, but firing them off is another!

Exactly.

I don't care if you have a GE minigun in camp but if you take out so much as a .22 and start popping rounds off in camp I'm going to start getting annoyed.

[Carol.92124]

I'll come visit your loud zone too, Grimm--maybe I should be the "old people ambassador" to your zone--I turn 44 on the 7th. It's sooooo cool of NAXJA folk to have a Jambo for my birthday!! :clap: Makes for a perfect b'day present!:party: :loveu: :cheers::cheers::cheers:

Belated bday wishes, then, Brendan!! And other than the creaky knees (which have been an issue since I was a teenager, being a genetic problem), I kinda like being in my 40's. There are some advantages =P.

So far I count 35 rigs and 58 people. Who else hasnt posted up that is coming?

[johnnyc]

I might, just might, come out in the morning. I have to be at work Saturday at 7 pm. So I'd have to leave JV around 4:30. That would give me time to do some good wheeling.

I'm just a "maybe". I have to think about it.

Jonny you better come we havnt wheeled since big bear!

[djblade311]

Im hoping we can get an accurate head count for dinner preparations...post up if you haven't already.

Thx!

[johnnyc]

If I do come out, I'd be leaving before dinner. So don't count me.

[Carol.92124]

I'm definite; looks like my daughters will NOT be going. I'm checking with a couple friends that have expressed interest in going, and will post up if they decide to come.

[GSequoia]

my daughters will NOT be going.

Probably a good choice.



:scottm:

[Carol.92124]

Hey, my daughters are great! And they'd kick the sh!t out of anyone that bothered them, and I'd stomp on the remains =). But yeah, at 17 & 15 they're getting pretty close to being considered fair game. And I'd hate to have to get blood & guts on my shoes.

Oh, and if Tom West shows up, he'll pay for dinner there; he's subject to the whims of another friend, I think. And I'm still working on getting Susan & Terry to show up. Sigh.

[boostamante]

Yo Boost, let's caravan?

IM game! gimme a call or send me a PM. we can work out the details.

::update::
1 XJ 2 adults

Also my buddy and hi fiance are coming along but he is riding in a chevy 1500.

[HeepSpeed]

cool beans. I'm bringing Sam and my buddy Eric. I couldn't source a gas tank skid and now there's not enough time left to get one to custom fit it over the welded on hitch so it looks like I'll be relegated to easier trails where I don't risk busting my tank open :(

[Goatman]

7-10 adults are coming from Bakersfield, not counting me.

My Dad is also coming, so one more.

[Jes]

Jes,
I hope your knives are sharp -- mine will be...

Way sharp.
You'll probably enjoy where I stick it.

[djblade311]

So far its looking like 75 people or so. This is the number we'll be shooting to feed. So if you havent posted up or prepaid your dinner, better post up before tomorrow at 5PM if you want to eat.

Yeah, this is the epic GoatFest--Goatman isn't running it, and Mikedashg, Kevin3151, and Markw are not going. But we're going to be there, and it will be awesome! party1:

I'll be there...and open to custom body damage. I'm sure it'll draw a crowd ;)

I'll miss those guys. Of course when Kevin doesnt, neither does his little brother Mark :D

[Carol.92124]

You forgot the rest of Mark's nickname... :D. But yeah, at the SCXJ M&G on Tuesday, Mark actually admitted that "Kevin's not going" was his main reason for not going...

[boostamante]

Illt ry and get drunk and show you guys my boobs... cant wait.

Update:

Bringing myself 3 other Adults and possibly a guy with a built sammy on 33's.

[Carol.92124]

TEEN COUNT????

My 15yo daughter just said she's up for going with me, if there will be other people close to her age... any 14-18yr old kids going? (no, you 21yo guys need not apply!!) I'd love to have her along, but not if she's booooorrrrrred =)

[cal]

gah why can't you bring the amatuer bartender daughter. and a bar.

;)

[Carol.92124]

Nice... Alden hasn't agreed to go yet... Both girls have so much homework it's pathetic. But I'll work on it. Can't bring a bar though.

[GSequoia]

Can't bring a bar though.

The Egg would be a perfect lakebed bar!

[Carol.92124]

The Egg would be a perfect lakebed bar!
I agree in theory but don't have enough time to set it up :confused1. No 12v blender, no inverter, no battery power anyway, no generator, not enough ice, and no running water are a few key starting points. We'll do it in Big Bear or somewhere sometime, where I can park it next to 110v power :).

[JESSE A]

Alright guys ill see you out there about to take off in a hour or so, !

[mikedashg]

funny! so i take it your not going?

Yes, how'd u guess? You're a fart smeller, errr smart fellar!

Yeah, this is the epic GoatFest--Goatman isn't running it, and Mikedashg, Kevin3151, and Markw are not going. But we're going to be there, and it will be awesome! party1:

I'm blaming it on the date change. It's been the same weekend for years (what? 5 or 6?) and I've never missed a one since the 1st annual. I know the reason, but that still doesn't change the fact that I could have gone. Maybe next year!

TEEN COUNT????

I'd say something, but 15 is a little young for me to say what I was thinking of saying (Maybe in 3 years I'll say something. Haha). Especially for such nice and well behaved kids. You'll have to learn me some that parenting crap when Vanessa and I decide to have one. I'm sure you'll have something to say about the topic.

Thank you (I think?). I think you & Vanessa will raise wonderful kids. And no, mine are not too young for just about anything you'd say to them. They're my kids, remember??? Looks like neither one's going though, so the rest of you will have to meet them another time...

Somehow I thought you weren't going out till tomorrow. I didnt roll out tonight cuz I didnt want to be there alone. ;)

I'll be there for sure.
