Roy Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I may have missed it some place. Is there any word on the trails being run this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autumnwalker Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 I may have missed it some place. Is there any word on the trails being run this year? Buggies are running stuff from Valley Crawl. The other rigs will be running Half Moon (correct way vs. backwards like last year), down International, some new trail over to Clearcut and then out... and maybe running it all back again (skipping International going up).

oniondip Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 What 'difficulty' would these trails be? Are we going to have any stock rigs following us through? Or is this just for modified rigs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomWood Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 We are running stock doable trails and the buggy's have their own trails. The ones we pre-ran Sunday your Ford will get some pin stripping but is more than capable of making it through, and there are go-arounds for some of the more difficult sections as well.

autumnwalker Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 I drove my stock HUMMER H2 with the original, showroom BFG A/T tires on it (nearing 85,000 km on them) with little issue. Came out with pin striping (obviously) and a dented skid plate / rock rail which I attribute to the size (width) and weight of the truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cherokee96 Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 Yeah, my gas tank holds 10 liters less now thanks to the dents resulting from the extra weight my jeep has acquired recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autumnwalker Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 Moral of the story - come prepared with skid plates under your rig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomWood Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 That is a very wise statement Scott :) I am sure there will be one on his gas tank by Friday lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorunner Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 hahahaha a lesson i learned the hard way as well im curntly building a skid for my tank ... got most of the dents out of my tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cherokee96 Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 I can't skid the tank without removing the hitch and I don't think I will be able to get the hitch back on if I remove it so I might just be super cautious about it so I don't remove my rear tow point.. Or I could take it off and just use winch to get out if trouble.. Be nice to keep the rear tow point just incase though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
