Well, it was a great run and some serious carnage was sustained by most.
This was a "big meat" run and I had the smallest tires (35"s) in the whole event.
The next smallest tires run were 39"s and 95% had 44"s and larger.
A few guys, maybe 5% were running Dana 44s front and rear, probably 70% had Dana 60s, and the other 35% were on Rockwells.
I'm running a Dana 30 front and 8.25 rear.
You'll all be happy to know, I ran better than most of the big meat rigs and there was little I couldn't do.
I did, however, have to winch in all the spots that everyone else did.
Anyway, on to the pictures.
Here is the portfolio with the rest of the pics.
These were from the parking lot the morning of the first run.
We had about 20 rigs in our group.
Can you guess which one is on 35"s? :laugh3:
The trail for the day was Panel Wagon and the toughest part was an offshoot that I'd have to rate as x-treme.
There were so many break-downs that it took at least 4 hours to run the 100 yard obstacle.
After getting through it, we moved on to an obstacle called Transfer Case, but we couldn't get to it because of more carnage, so we had to turn around , take a shortcut over the mountain and call it a day.
Here is the top
The next day, we set out to run Grassy and Axle Breaker.
Unforutunately, my camera man stunk so the only good pics of the day were taken by me.
Here is Grassy and it was pretty loose and tricky, but the XJ made it up easier than any of the other rigs.
There's a buggy in the top right if you look close enough.
And finally was Axle Breaker.
This one was a ball buster and I had to winch out of it.
Again, no pics of the XJ.
Axle Breaker lived up to it's name.
Find the rear winch cable in this one.
All in all, it was a great event and I will return to piss off the big meat guys for years to come.
