I'm trying to find out if anyone is actually going ot head up there.I've been following the posts about it, but no one seemed to give a straight answer. Myself and emsoffroad(Eric) are gonna be there around 10-11 because I have to work untill 8am.

I might make the trip back out there on sat too, but I'm not sure yet. I live like 45 min away.

If your gonna make it shoot me an email at Jester_YJ@pirate4x4.com.

Thanks

JR Miller

I'm just trying to hook up so that when I get there I'll still be able to hit the trail. I dont want to head up there and I cant go out cause no one else is there.

I get off of work at 8am, and I'm gonna head straight up there.

There will be plenty of people there to wheel with. This weekend is the weekend of the Coal Mine Cruser Classic. If you look on the Paragon web sight @ www.paragonap.com and look under the calender all of the information will be there.

I'm still trying to get the time off work. If I do come I'll stay for the whole weekend seeing that it's an 8 hour drive. My truck is actually ready to go and my tools are packed! I just need the time off work :mad:

Well we had 2 vehicles show up, but we still got it on in true Pirates style! Having only 2 vehicles we had the opportunity to hit several trails.

We started out running moderate level Drumstick, then moved right to the Black trail M Extension. From there we checked out the rest of M and went on to Death Valley to scope it out and ate lunch there.

From Death Valley we went over to a section that my Club (NAXJA-NAC) had built called Sherbert Rocks. There are some difficult short sections along the 150 yards plus that this boulder strewn section has to offer. We took the hardest 2 sections it had to offer and escaped without much damage.

We then ran over to check out Rattler's 1 and 2. We found two groups of Cruisers on Rattler 1 (they are holding the Coal Mine Cruiser Classic this weekend) so we moved on and ran Rattler 2. After we finished it was close to closing time so we headed back out to the staging area to air up and prepare the Jeeps for the run home.

JesterYJ had torn a shock mount off his rear 44 on M extension and i punctured and broke a RS9000 on my rear 44. A few small dents here and there but nothing was broke that stopped us from having an awesome time on Friday.

It was great meeting Jester (JR) Emsoffroad (Eric) and showing them around the park. They were hooked and returned today! I had to go home and work on the "Honey Do List"...aint it a biatch!

Perhaps next year we can get a much larger group and make it a 2 day event.

BTW....not once all day did i hear someone say...Do a search ya fawking Newbie!

Well I'm sure that you remember me saying that I''d take it easy on friday and hit it hard on sat. well I did just that...

we did the undertaker, it is alot of fun, and just my kind of trail.
Then we had to put a cruiser up the v rock, he had a broken pinnion shaft trying getting on it.

then we hit m-extension, I had to winch part yesterday, well today I layed it over on its right side in that big hole on the right.(Pics soon)
Then I got pi$$ed of and did it again without any problems at all, it was great.

By the way, I bashed in my diff too, but its all better, we got a HP 44 cover and welded some 1/8" steel to it, and boy is it beefy!!
