Ok, who's going to Customer appreciation day?

When: Aug 8th
Where: Badlands offroad park (Attica, IN)
What: Customer appreciation day
Why: free stuff watching TREC 2.0 and Fireworks
Who: Me and all the buddies and you!

make your reservations early, it is going to be a big-ass day

there is normal badlands shenanigans during the day, the trec race after close, as well as Great Lakes Jeep Thing doing their Summerbash... (have no idea, someone mentioned it on the BL forum and it is listed on their website so...)

here is the flier:


it says: "Ride during the day and watch the race for free."
I think it means pay for the day and get in after hours for the race free...
my cousin seems to think it means park admission is free... i have been to lazy/busy to call and make sure...

like i said if you will be camping, do not wait... get your reservation!!!

hope to see fellow pirates there!!!

well i have some bad news, my uncle (the one with the bronco and all the stuff) his mom is having some pretty serious health issues at the moment, and his attendence is in question...
i still really really want to go and ive tried to invite a lot of local guys... i really want to stay for the race this time... but of my uncle doesnt show it may be a 1 day thing

plus the farther i get into my front axle, the more that needs to be done, wish me luck!

had a great weekend!
shoutout to NT2HLBLY for bringing me an oil pan at 2 this morning, got it throwed on and was baack on the trails today...

that was all we broke, the xj bent his 3rd tie rod today i think it may be time for more beef, he has 1 more free one then thats it lol

we actually broke more on the way home, the motor home blew the pass inside dual after hitting a shredded tire in the middle of the road, got it of and put the spare on with no trouble...

we had a blast, i hope everyone else did too!

im kinda pissed i didnt get to see that 5 ton ford do anything, would have beed cool to see him go through that mud bog...




sorry i didnt catch your name at all nt2hlbly but thanks again! sorry you are unhappy with that tj... hope you trade it for something cool! keep me posted!


i am uploading some raw footage to youtube now and will post in a few mins
