View Full Version : Things I learned at WF Oh-Ten

People will follow me wherever I go.

ARB lockers does not mean you wont get stuck when your stupid

A Jeep blessing needs to be done next year (sorry guys)

Susie can drive a lifted built XJ....as long as its auto.

My wife getting a lapdance was not as exciting as I thought it would be.

A stray dog will jump into the Ford without any coaxing.

Bob Loose can wheel at Badlands without breaking on Rock Face.

Harry Potter has nothing on LesLimited with sawdust.

6 shots of Jager will make my wife fall over while trying to pee.

Last but not least, it IS the people that make WF what it is. I made allot of new friends, and reconnected with old friends this time. it never ceases to thrill me at how much everyone is dedicated to having fun and showing others a good time.
You are all great.

Things I learned:

Josh is not a good trail leader

Jason is the "thats what she said" Master

Kumho's aren't bad in sand, rock, or mud

My rear shocks were way too long

Bob is not very good at trades

Sawdust and Peanut shells burn HOT

95' heep is DEDICATED to having fun in his Jeep

Brad's ZJ likes to lose coils

Even if you take it easy and don't do crazy obstacles, you might still roll.
Cages are worth there weight in gold!
The motor home will get over 10 MPG if driven below 65 MPH
Mac is a lucky man
Grace is a lucky girl
You guys are the best people!

XJ Stryker
March 7th, 2010, 15:21
Lol

Even a 103 raffle tickets can still get nothing when Kim and Macgyver are there.

Josh was a great tail gunner, just too big of a green group this year. I will prolly volunteer to gun green next year so we can split up more.

SeanR looks just like Chris Farley... and now his roof matches the rest of his rig.

Flex's second rig is sexier than his first.

Never follow a ZJ in badlands.

Buy more hay for the mud.

Figure out away to keep more heat in a tent. ( i left this one open for you I forsee comments on heat generation)

I am sure I will come up with more later.

FlexdXJ
March 7th, 2010, 15:24

Actually my second rig is a POS. That is the 3rd rig! :D

-Rev's mission is to damage as many of your body panels as possible if you follow him on 'Rev's Run', and quite possibly take mirrors when he can.
-Don't follow Rev too closely on his pre-run. When you are backing through 2 trees you just barely made it through, but he has room enough to turn around, he will enjoy laughing at you as he patiently watches.
-My 6.0 Gasser can get over 10mpg too while towing, of course it probably doesn't tow quite as well as Sean's or Rev's
-Hot fuel rails suck... wait, I knew that already, just another reminder this year. That WILL be fixed by next year... I hope.
-The value of SeanR's jeep doubled, because it will now be a "buggy."
-It's a good thing we had the intermission at the raffle, it would have been awkward if the wrong number was called. Again, congrats Mac and Grace.
-Winterfest is one of my favorite times of the year, cant wait until next year

Having a tow rig is awesome.

Not wheeling Friday because you got there late sucks.

We need to secure straw way in advance next year.

Nachos at midnight.

Mac will have shirts and hats to wear for years.

Don't let Sue have Jager.

Rev's SuperDuty makes my truck feel like ancient farm equipment.

bmyohn
March 7th, 2010, 15:55
Get a tow rig for next year.

Dana 30 + Locker + Red Trail + Stroker = bad things

Everyone is fun to be around and very personable.

People are ready to jump in and fix your rig just because they want to help (thanks, Wade, Jake, and Dan an your son as well, oh and Paul, and Josh, and basically the entire MWC lol)

Removing inner-shafts will let you drive home without any issues.

Selling parts for beer is ALWAYS a good idea.

$40 in raffle tickets can win you a long arm upgrade and a badlands shirt:D

The campfire IS what makes winterfest.

Wade needs a TC skid.

I need a space heater.

Winterfest can make you completely change your outlook on vehicles, its time to step up to a diesel tow rig/ DD.

Overall I had a blast and everyone on NAXJA is very fun to be around.

March 7th, 2010, 16:06
It is possible to do a WF trail run, on Orange, where the only problem is someone forgetting to air down.

I can have a blast at an MWC campfire without drinking enough to have a killer hangover.

My garbage collector will no longer be getting any sawdust.

I should not hand pieces of 3/4" plywood to guys that want to break things over their heads.

There are worse things than getting water in my diffs.

And not learned, but merely reaffirmed, the MWC has the best people, and some of my best friends.

:cheers:

Oh and i also learned that the popular tire at WF this year was the KM2!

97XJ2
March 7th, 2010, 16:43
$20 in raffle tix is enough to win a few times.

Going through B.F.I(llinois) may be less stressful than driving through Chicago at rush hour, but takes about as long.

Drink heavy on Saturday, not Friday. And get more than 2hrs sleep before wheeling.

I suffered more carnage on the way down than while on the trails.

Rev leads an awesome run w/o body damage too.

Driving in Full Time just because Stryker says he did on Friday may lead to a hang up or two.

Deep fried turkey at midnight.

People are generous for helping you solve a cooling problem.

For clothes two t-shirts, a change of socks and a toothbrush is all the personal equipment you really need. The three of us brought way too much.

Gas tank skid, or more lift, or both.

My tow strap is big enough that people think I am "compensating".

Pack a lunch, and more water!

Check driveshafts for zipties before leaving.

WF is great, people are good, people with 3/4" plywood are crazy drunk.

More to come...

-one jeep with a bad alternator can drag another jeep with a bad alternator at least 50 miles

-don't follow the white wrangler

-need more skinny pedal when in deep ruts

-30+ rigs on green makes a loooooog line

RedHeep
March 7th, 2010, 16:58
-Never bring a bunch of stuff to trade or sell without a list, photographs of the new owners and phone numbers or you'll keep somebody out way too late with a long drive ahead of him (sorry, Jason)

-The boys at Rough Country will simply not let you pay them for the u-joint you used when you snap one on Rockface (I think I almost got beat up for offering 3 times)

-You can handle having your dad call you Danica for beating up his jeep as long as it's still on your trailer headed home to NC

-Selectable lockers are the poo. Turning and climbing all in one axle

-When you have cigars from southern Miami, Rev will do ANYTHING for you :)

-You can drive 6 hours in Ohio and Indiana with no rear fenders or truck bed and the PoPo doesn't care

-The bugs in your bed at the Hotel is just an "Attica thing" and you're supposed to get used to it.

-If you try and load your jeep on the trailer in the grass behind the hotel, the crazy bitch owner will come out and yell at you and write your license plate number down, then disappear when the pissed off Marine gets out of the Jeep

-The MWC does it best. The people are what make WF a great time. I would drive 18 hours every weekend to hang out with you crazy drunk people :D

Mac- Any girl that grabs the handle in front of her and tells you to put the hammer down with the passenger front wheel 3 feet in the air is a keeper. Congrats buddy :cheers:

*Make sure your better half zips the tent all the way at night or you will wake up in the middle of the night with a stray dog on your bed.

* Always check the roof before leaving anywhere it sucks when your husband finds your gloves on the way back from the trails that have been ran over multiple times.

*I don't think Grimmus will remember anything from Saturday night, and he likes to pull the red tickets :(

* Rev's Run is awesome

That throwing a bag of trash in the camp fire was a bonehead thing to do...but seemed like a good idea at the time :gee: (won't happen again....)

seanR CAN run a vacuum

John can pressure the beer w/ my CO2 anytime, anyplace....

My wifes "comfort zone" has been increased tremendously.....

Mike Hale is not a fan of the Bacon Explosion and complained about his pretty rig award.....he must be a communist :D

After running with seanR for 2 years I still called him by the wrong last name.....

The MWC polished off 5# of Bacon Explosion and there were still people waiting in line for a piece...

The cheese flowed like wine once again...about 20# to be exact.....

That only being President of the Chapter for 3 months really has your eyes opened to what all goes into this event and the people that make it what it is....I hope that credit was given where it was due and I apologize if I overlooked anyone, it was not intentional.

and last but not least...this is the GREATEST group of guys and gals that make this chapter what it is...and I am PROUD TO BE PART OF THIS CHAPTER!!! :thumbup:

- just because there is 30 minutes left till closing time doesnt mean you cant break, bad.
- camping next to bmyohn can be good and bad
- Robies caters kick ass food
- 70+ rigs can and will fit into 1 photo
- watching people wheel is almost as fun as wheeling yourself
- glad i brought JakeWI cause he can take awesome pics
- im ready for WF '11

Sometimes Sean's bumper sticker is right.

Sleeping next to the crapper has it benefits/drawbacks.

Some people have all the luck.

Mac is just a softie.

Don't blow your horn at Kim's sister-in-law.

Skid plates are golden.

Tons more but my head hurts.

Oh, yeah, some people get pissy when you tell them they have a nice rig. :)

A coat hanger will hold a exhaust system on when you have no spare clamp.

The ghost at The Attica Hotel is real.

You can wheel the heck out of a jeep ,at the end of the day drive it home...

My wife had a good time.

I'm getting old,just can't find the energy to party the last night.

Thanks for the air!

Winterfest is fun wheeling, but really great to see all the old and new friends.

Knowing someone has rolled, everyone is ok, but actually "seeing" them walking around afterward is priceless. Thank god for roll cages.

Don't drink Jaeger and then try moonshine. This is a really bad combo and makes me an idiot. This will not be repeated, I promise.

XJosh95
March 8th, 2010, 09:56
My pile isn't as capable as SeanR's winch.A locker will take you a lot further than you should go.Street tires still suck.Bacon Explosion is goooood!Tyler likes petting my hat.Aaron can suck it.Rob can ride in my group anytime.I can wheel the urine out of my rig and make it 140 miles home.I still have a lot to do to it.There is at least one kid who can drink and do jumping jacks.It gets better and better each year.WF Stogies were a big hit.The campfire is the place to be.Reaffirmed: The MWC is the best chapter.Reaffirmed: People will bend over backwards to help you out.I'm sure there is more...Had the best time. Can't wait for next year.

Did those count as Jumping Jacks? Falling Jacks?


1) Sleeping bags are not so warm once the zippers break
2) Midwest chaper has some great people
3) I'm no longer a Winterfest Virgin
4) Contrary to what my neighbors think, I don't have the ugliest Xj in the midwest. Mud is Makup for Jeeps...

March 8th, 2010, 11:17
- An XJ can fit down a ATV trail
- People will drink anything you put in a Mason jar
- If Rev tells you, you won't get stuck that doesn't mean he won't
- This group of guys and gals are the best!

March 8th, 2010, 11:18
Dyno-mite LOVES jager, until the next morning when she falls down in the tent still drunk.

My junk will still do 70 on the highway, but you can't hear the person next to you talking.

Spools make turning in the mud problematic.

The giveaway jeep is awesomely capable, when you can keep fuel going to the motor and the exhaust attached.

the MWC is still the best.

Wow, well i learned a real lot....

First, you guys are one of the best car groups I have ever been in, and im in a few

I learned that a stock jeep really can do a lot, and it wont take much to make it do a lot more.

I learned that drinking around a campfire is way more fun then any bar or club

even though you might have just met some one, they will be right under your rig with you covered in gas trying to fix the leak

i learned that having towing coverage is one of the greatest things ever!!!

March 8th, 2010, 14:41
I learned that winterfest is the best 4 x 4 event i have been to and has the best people in their group.

I really want lockers and more skid plates.
Do not get worried about a simple check engine light after a sputter or two. ( new plug wires and what not coming)

I really miss living in Indiana.

Everyone i met from the NAXJA MWC are the kind of people i like to hang with.

Driving 70 through Chicago with a mud covered xj makes people give you a bit more room.

The people on my street are REALLY clueless about the jeep thing

March 8th, 2010, 15:07
I learned on the trip home that when you have a d-bag driver that's taking 15 miles to pass you in the left lane, all you have to do is wiggle the trailer a little bit and they move right along.:D

I wouldn't wiggle too much with your truck, trailer combo....

Mega-Megz
March 8th, 2010, 18:21
Things I learned...

If Rev remembers your name you are golden

Get more sleep the night before Saturdays Run...it isnt pretty

Dan likes to honk his horn at innocent peoples tents

Two people are not always enough to keep you from freezing at night

Mixing Jameson, Jack, Jager, Dark Tequilla, and Moonshine at the Campfire Saturday night can result in memory loss...

Also matching a guy shot for shot that is twice your size can result in you being carried to a tent by your sister and brother in law.. :( Not my most glorious moment...

If allowed Winterfest 2011 is a must do..

Thanks for the great time everyone...Hopefully next year I will be allowed to show my face at the campfire.. :)

My friend did that on Friday, safe to say that dog got a fair bit of action.

FlexdXJ
March 8th, 2010, 23:00
I can't say what else i learned this weekend.

Other than:

Megan drank a lot and kept up with that Lush named Josh

Tow rigs are the way to go

Sleeping at a hotel, No matter how haunted, is the way to go.

A ghost messing with your friend is priceless

Robie's serves a mean roast!

-MWC are the greatest group of guys/gals to meet and wheel with
-wish i would have joined sooner
-taking a lot of pictures can be fun
-sorting threw all the pictures sucks, especially when you took 582
-don't feed SeanR's dogs. glad he picked up the poo behind the fire.
-Brenden needs to learn how to put up a tent
-wade's red MJ took on a lot of obstacles and still can look good
-wade's camper has heat which beat a tent :) so i didnt have to stand in the bathroom to warm up like others every morning :gee:

cant wait for next year and hopefully with my rig next time.

85xjwoody
March 9th, 2010, 11:10
I learned:

I can still wheel the piss out of a d30 on 36" tires and minimal problems.:D

Food at a Friday pot luck and at a Saturday dinner can go FAST.

A tranfer case skid is worth the effort to put in. After seeing Wade's carnage, I will be putting mine on:D

A campground can be nice in the morning but hell in the afternoon.

I am sure there are more, but can't think of them right now.

One more I just thought of, no matter who I bring to Winterfest for a guest, they are good entertainment.:D

96 XJ Sport
March 9th, 2010, 11:58
1) On Rev's pre-run, when he says be prepared for body damage, be prepared for body damage. Granted, it was minor, but it happened and I am no longer a body damage virgin :D

2) My son enjoys wheeling, but I think he enjoys stomping in mud puddles and collecting rocks even more.

3) Electric blankets, doggone it, electric blankets...why didn't we think of that before WF? :doh:

A Rubicon can keep up with XJs.

Yeah, thanks Aaron. I've got plans for it now too, you'll like it more. :D

Yeah, they'll do that. we are still trying to get Diez(the guy with the turkey fryer) to get rid of that Xterra but it just won't happen! He got a VW instead and now i'm picking up some parts for him! So much for getting him in an XJ!

I learned something else at WF. I've got the wheelin' bug again. It went dormant for the last 6-8 months, and I considered selling the Jeep.

After last weekend I'm trying to scrape together all the odd jobs I can so I can get back out and go wheeling!

I will second this. the Mj sat in my driveway for 18 months because I was disgusted. Now tat it's running and driveable again it's going to get some more love.
I need to go through everything in the garage and have a sale to fund some things.

and I think mine counts as a two door :illegalflipoff:

I just order a Painless 7-circuit remote fuse block to replace my old one.
I plan to dedicate a lot of time to wire my crap correctly.
for some reason, I lost power to my remote fuse block at the beginning of WF and really screwed me up.
next time, I should be properly WIRED!!!!
