TSF Noobfest: 5/8

[FiveNdime]

You should be fine. This is a Noob run, to show you the ropes and have fun. There should be 0 oppertunity for enough abuse to break anything. Just make sure your good on your preventitive maintenance!

X2, this run should be just a getting to know your rig, and a feel for the trail. Not much chance for a breakage, even in a stock rig.

 

[Icemans]

Well I offered my seat up but know it's taken. My cousin has a cherokee and want's to come. He cant bring the old XJ but he's going to ride with me. If he's lucky I might even let him drive a little bit.

Well....

I am looking for a few people to give the harder obstacles a shot (Mini Rubi, Canopener, Waterfall). Either they make it and provide a good demo on picking lines and spotting, or they don't and we can do a recovery/vehicle extraction demo.

Seriously though, the route I have planned has virtually zero risk for breakage or body damage. Also, with the turnout we're expecting I guarantee you we could get you home one way or another. I think it was mopar440 who said, "we wheelers are an innovative bunch."

:wave::clap: I need to introduce my sliders to some rocks.

I would definately be a "recovery lesson" if I tried one of those. I cant wait till I get my lockers in.

P.S. I got another XJ to come, you know him Dustin...my brother in his silver XJ.

 

[Icemans]

I would also be a Recovery Lesson if I tried one, but if you can't find someone to do it I will give it a try. You know I’m open open but I'm not afraid of a challenge. So I can be a last ditch effort if need be.

Glad to hear you'll be making it out.

As for lunch, I say lets stick to the K.I.S.S. principle of, "Keep it simple, stupid." Take a look at the lunch list, and see if we're missing anything. Whatever your up for bringing would be appreciated.

 

[EvanRigged]

I'm in! i"m new to the site, not so new to the jeep thing but really excited to come play with you guys and see what its all about.

I am officially bowing out of this run guys. I really hate to... especially with sooooo many new folks coming out. I was really looking forward to meeting you all. It looks like we will be finishing up my cage this weekend though. :guitar:

If someone close by wants to stop by thursday or friday afternoon, i'd like to still donate some tater salad to the event. Oh... and i gots some swag for Dustin to give away too :shhh:

I am going to be meeting you WA dudes at PIR. I forgot its Mothersday weekend. So my normal pitcrew will be with their Mother. But I Found some stand-ins.

I am also going to forgo the chili.. and the kitchen sink. I do need to leave some room for parts and tools.

I am excited. atriot:


We should have an All, "Under the Hood" lunch sometime. Have a buffet style lunch, with everyone preparing one dish.. under their hood. It would be fun.

Just know you'll be missing out on a historic run of epic size.

Added you to the list. Isn't that a little out of your way though?

Either way, we're expecting 10 rigs to meet up with us in the morning. I'd say that qualifies as a convoy.

Trust me, i would not be missing this if it wasnt for this one reason. I am sure ryan wants it out of his shop as bad as i do, and with the progress he's made so far, i am expecting i will be back bumping stumps with ya'll very soon :greensmok (just need some tires now)

Totally, But I will be coming down from Vantucky that morning.


10-4 rubber ducky.. we got ourselves a convoy. Should be a good sight.. 10 rigs rollin down the 26.

 

[nrpalmer32]

If you see an O.D. green XJ with TJ flares, honk and I'll join ur convoy. What CB station will most be running?

Also I'd love to get stuck/extracted.:viking: I'm taking my buddy that has never been wheeling. I installed a Rubi Express 3.5 SF about 10 months ago and haven't got to play with it that much. I'd love to see what I can do with it. So far my limiting factor has been my 30" tires
