We are running a Jeep Cherokee in the TREC race (if it's done by then) We will be there the 9th as well.

I'll be there all day sat. Planning on watching the races too. Is there an additional cost for that? If so how much. Looks like 2 with a possibility of a 3rd in my group. If you see us hit us up and maybe we'll hit some trails together. Look for the Indy ORV sticker on the back. We'll be running on ch. 4

According to http://www.badlandsoffroad.com, it's $10/person to spectate.

I don't know how that's going to work if you've already paid to wheel that day. Maybe it's free to watch the race after you've already paid a daily admission for the park?

The TREC Race was awsome. We placed 1st in B class and 3rd overall we even cam in ahead of a few A class trucks, Kyle had a greeat course layed out. Guys you can build a B class truck on a tight budget. Who ever reads this should look into building one. Rules for classes and more info can be found at http://trecwithus.com Check it out it, it was a blast

I was in the tan Cherokee with the 2 lights on top. Did you enjoy watching the race? You should race the next race, it's Aug 8th or 9th I can't remember.

Hey Stumpdaddy - How was the ride home? I see since you are posting you guys made it with your brake problem! You guys did awesome in the race - nice job. I was the guy over talking to you guys when you finished. Did you guys trailer that thing or have to drive it home?

I am definately going to race in the next one - I wish I would have run this one. I don't know if I am going to enter the full size catagory or the SXS cat.

Anyone have any idea if they are going to keep the SXS class?

We need to get some flyers made and help Kyle and Stephanie promote the series. Take some to our local hang outs and put them on the tack board, leave a stack at auto parts stores, make sure we all have TREC stickes on our vehicles....
