The people I met though NAC / Naxja

[Hammered]

I felt it was worth posting.

In my younger years I was always the kinda the knucklehead, hung out with knuckleheads... did dumb stuff... Point being most of my circle of buddies were hooligans.

But, I can say most if not all the friends I met through NAC are some of the best / reliable / dedicated folks I know. Maybe that doesnt mean sh!t to some people. But there is something to be said for that I think.
Theres some good dudes in NAC.

Hell yeah. :us:

[billyjp2]

i've met alot of good people from up north, hopefully many more down in PA at nacfest

[OverlandXJ]

Nope, were a buncha hooligans further south... ;)


I'm looking fwd to finally meeting a few of you Yanks at Nac-Fest as well.

[js_customs]

I've met some real weirdos...like that hammered guy ;) Nah just kidding...Everyone I've met so far has been super cool, even though i havent met too many people from here. Met a good friend through here too after buying a skid plate off of him. :kissyou: Might be the same guy that posted this thread.

[Glenn B]

I have met many great people through NAXJA in my 10 years here. From the NAC, I have yet to only meet Rich P.

Are you sure you have to right group, we're all knuckleheads or maybe just me or maybe just me around Andy"hey Ben lets try this..." ok......

But I must agree with you here, the NAC/NAXJA people are the best, they'll help you with out even knowing you, found that out way back when I was at XJ-Fest@Tellico and was broke when I got down there...long story...

[Hammered]

Youre a good Knucklehead. See you at NAC fest succa.

[Joev]

I agree. Everyone I have met through NAC and at the NACFEST events have been great. Everyone is always willing to help out, give tech advice.... And wheeling with a bunch of Jeepheads is the best. Everyone wants everyone to have a good time..Life is tough and a pain in the rear most of the time. Nice to go somewhere where it's all about fun and good spirits..

Ok..must have watched tooo much lifetime tv. Or maybe it's that I'm the only dude in the house and being surrounded by my wife and daughters all the time..>Dam..they made me sensitive..

[5spd_xj]

I agree with everyone. NAXJA and the NAC are an awesome, awesome group of people who I'm proud to be a part of.

LOL Joey, just step away from the estrogen, go out to the garage RIGHT NOW!!!:D:D

Yep, there is lots of good folks in this crew.... always willing to lend a hand, help spot, stack a rock, help fix and do whatever is needed for other folks on the trail, whether they are in our group or not. We have had some serious breakages and challenges in some knarly spots, and always manage to get it fixed (or at least "move-able to get it out of the woods) and then laugh about it later around the campfire.

[vetteboy]

Hmm...lemme list...Goatman, Jump This, Farmer Matt, Jes, Cal, Mattyj, 4xSanta, Dumptruck, Dave Taylor, Paul S, the list goes on...

Oh wait. Wrong chapter. :D

Those guys all showed great hospitality when I was out visiting/wheeling in Johnson Valley. I've found many of the guys from our own chapter - lobsterDMB, Andy, Stroker, John B, Egon, Rob M, Art, Mitch, DITA (:D), and many other guys I met in passing (and hope to meet again at this year's NACfest) - to absolutely have the same attitude towards fellow wheelers.

x2 + more overlandxj, countryxjer, easyxjer, knucklebuster, victor and everyone the heck else.

I much enjoy being a part of the 4wheeling community as opposed to what I was into before, which was more street trucks etc.
I was sort of floored on some of my first 4x4 trips, the commradery between jeepers, I wasnt used to helping out and being just as concerned about your vehicle as they are their own (sort of), at least if you break it you will get home somehow. Its sort of a no man left behind philosophy, if you dont get off the trail, I dont get off.
I went on a wheeling trip two weeks ago with a group of Fj people (see jeep pic showcase) and it was strangely different, maybe it was the newbie factor, but there were some people I didnt know were on the trail ride, until the end of the day, because no one cared to get out of the vehicle. This is what im used to seeing, everyone out, everone involved, everyone having fun.

Right back atcha homeboy. :guitar:

warmer weather is coming, don't get all caught up in winter sappy feelings for too long.

sunday, you down!?!?!?!?!?!

[Hammered]

For Shad, Lets go.

[knuckle_buster]

Youre a good Knucklehead. See you at NAC fest succa.

OMG! You took this one way too far, Ben's head just got really big. LOL! I think we should just stay with knucklehead :doh: love you too, ben. hardy-har-har!

I have to say that it has been a great experience, wheeling with everybody, even made some freinds along the way. It's great to see people jump out and lend a helping hand, or even bust your stones, which is usually common courtesy in our group.

[js_customs]

For Shad, Lets go.

Come get me on the way? It's not too far out of your way ;)

[MrShaft696]

a Nac member tried to touch me once.

[lobsterdmb]

a Nac member tried to touch me once.

It was probably Stroker... We have tried to stop him from doing that, but it hasn't seemed to work. Where do you think his nickname came from?

OUCH...wrong o' so wrong...:eyes:

actually my nickname came from tellico-fest back in '01 from Four-wheeler. We were sitting aroung the fire and at the time I was using my name and he suggested STROKER because of my motor. Don't need any rumors flyin'.

johnny, 1 question?? creamy or chunky??????????

STROKER

[MrShaft696]

yeah it was ben (Stiffler), I think Ive been in denial, what do I do?

[altierior]

curl up and have a good cry. it'll be cathartic.

either that, or drink yourself into a stupor. then have a good cry.

it's okay to mourn the loss of your innocence.

[OverlandXJ]

Back when we started the Chapter we had to have him stop touching himself... so he is showing improvement.

:laugh:


Hi Ben. :moon:

[Mighty.Mighty_XJ]

Back on topic, I met some members of NAC last summer at NAC Fest. Great bunch o' guys, I had fun, I felt comfortable although it was my first time wheeling with people I didn't know. Being female, alone & so far away from home, it is a good example of the kind of guys you all are since I (almost) fit right in. But I strayed from the foal on Sunday & got stranded in the woods by a different group of strangers. Serves me right, I guess.

Hope to be at NACFest this year too. I'm not hardcore, but seeing all the guys being called by name above, I wonder if anyone remembers my name ... :anon:

On the tip of my tongue but cannot recall it. I want to say Aieshah? sp?

There were a few guys i didnt get the chance to formally meet last year as i was only there for the BBQ and raffle. Didnt get there early enough to run trails saturday. Did get to meet a few who i had been wanting to meet, Vette, Mofo, Lobstah..

I'll be there everyday this year though.

[Mighty.Mighty_XJ]

Aieshah? lol ... not even close, but that's a good laugh. Not an ethnic name at all, lol.

Starts with "L"

[MrShaft696]

[Rob Mayercik]

I remember you too, Laverne (other than MikeInNJ, I don't run across too many '92s on the trail, so it sticks out) - gonna have all the bolts in your skidplate this year? :eyes:

Yep, we're a great group 'round these parts.


From the NAC, I have yet to only meet Rich P.

You know it's funny, I don't remembering being there the day we met... :laugh:

[Mighty.Mighty_XJ]

[MTBracer367]

[OverlandXJ]

haha, guys Im pretty sure her name isn't Laverne, I made that up but it could have been a good guess, maybe she should clarify!

[Mighty.Mighty_XJ]

My name is Lavern ... no "e" on the end. I'm subtracting the points I gave you for a good guess ...

[Hammered]

I met Mighty Lavern briefly at the Jeep show and RCrocs, seemed like a nice respectful person... maybe you fellas could learn a thing or two from her.

[Veeb0rg]

maybe he was implying that we are by-and-large a rude and vulgar group, and someone who is nice and respectful could be a good influence. :eyes:

Haha, sometimes I'm not so nice, lol. But now that the nice man has given me such a great compliment (Thanks Hammered!), I will have to be on my best behavior.

















Bummer ...

[jerseyjeep01]

Hey, I met Mighty Mighty XJ at the quadratec show(the "big" red cherokee with long arms) and at the Wharton clean up. I met Jeeping Coastie on a trail ride awhile back.

[D.I.T.A]

(ps) Ben i hope you still have the air horn because im bringing some competition:firedevil

[Deadman 94 xj]

I've met nobody seeing as I'm pretty new to the forum and the inner workings. I will say that I bought something off of MightyMightyXJ and it was the best online transaction I've had the pleasure of dealing with. She even offered to refund an over payment on the shipping cost.

You Rock!
