I am thinking of going to attica on the last weekend of july to try it out for the first time but I wanted to get some good feedback on the park itself good bad and types of wheeling to do. Give me a rating from 1-10 and let me know what you thought from personal experiance.

It's a good park, plenty of hard stuff, plenty of trails, plenty of places to play, definitely worth the trip.
The last weekend in July is also an ERoCC competiton in N. Tennessee, why not save Attica and try a competition out. There's plenty of hard wheeling and it looks like your rig is competition ready from your sig:beer:

Attica is lots of fun. the quarry has just about every level of challenge you could want and the same goes for the trails. pink is suppose to be difficult (haven't done that yet), but there are a few others that will be very difficult. plus, you have huge mud pits everywhere to play in (most are on trails).
Mission Impossible is suppose to be a tough trail as well as Purgatory (haven't run either one of those). Troys Trail (not sure if it's MI or goes by another name) from what I hear is :rasta:
judging from your sig, you'll have lots if fun on the good stuff :cool: :D
Just Go ...................It's worth the trip.:D

Mission Impossible/Troy's Trail (one and the same) has never been open to the public, only by invitation. I've done it twice, and was even allowed to lead the group the 2nd time. And now, the property is no longer Badlands owned, so access went from limited to non-existant. Tuesday June 25th, Troy is personally leading a group from the PBB thru there, with the new owners permission. This may very well be the LAST EVER ride thru that area. It should be considered closed otherwise.
I've wheeled pretty much everything at Attica and I guarantee you will find challenge like nowhere else in the MidWest. I also ran Paragon over Memorial weekend, and consider them equally challenging, but different. My wife is going to do the Orange trail on Saturday and then we intend to do the Pink on Sunday. Purgatory either Sunday or Monday, depending on motivation.
I avoid the mud, so no rating from me there. Hills - excellent and rocks - excellent. Lots of off-camber spots, lots of areas where you use your roll cage as a slide-point. You can run a windshield, but I prefer it down so I don't have to worry about it.
See the PBB Tour - Attica Leg post for more info.

I probly won't go to the EEroc comp just because I am still getting used to my rig with all the new mods I am confident about going on some good stuff but not for comp. yet maybe next season I need to get some drive time in first but Attica seams to be a good place for some better testing of my skill and the rigs, and I need to see where my major week spots are. keep on with the feed back though.
