This should be in the regional forums IMO... I don't see any tech, or trail reports coming from this thread, but anyway... I'm bored.

NVTTORA is all mildly built DD type rigs... Good group of guys, but they stick to the easy stuff. Totalkarnage is probably more what you're looking for. They have a couple of really well built Toyota rigs in their group. From what I've seen there's a very small amount of "hardcore" Toyota guys around here, and most of them are'nt the internet type. Then again I rarely 'wheel "localy" (I travel to 'wheel) so there may be more of them around and I just don't know it...

Depending on what you're looking to do feel free to check my rig out. It's pretty simple and nothing fancy but gets the job done. What part of vegas are you living in? I know a few members of karnage, jeepgal, and they're fun.

PM me your number and I'll give you a call next time we go wheeling. I live on the northwest side of town so it's a bit of a drive just to look at it.

Just found you. I also live up in the NW area and rock a Toyota. PM me whenever and we'll take you out or let you check out the rigs for ideas. I have a truggy 82', my buddy Bill has a Cruiser and we wheel with Sami's, Jeeps, Dodge's and buggies. Plus with no clubs dues or BS, you can wheel/hang out anytime.

All over the West. Hammers, Farmington, Area BFE, Table Mesa, Florence Junction, 'Con, Owahees, bla bla bla...
My rig is nothing special, but feel free to PM me if you want to check it out.

I'll be looking to run some trails this summer close to Vegas (night runs most likely) Let me know if you guys want to run some trail. I too am not into the club deal... I'll 'wheel with whoever, with whatever they bring... Within reason...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This is Jack's Trail, it's in Vegas and has alot of options for just about every truck/skill level. Awesome trail that's only 20 minutes from town. My bro and I broke it like 5 years ago and have been adding options to it ever since. Pic was taken when it snowed last January, my left foot was broke when we ran it, you can see the end of my crutches poking out the pass. side. And yes, it's a 5 speed.

Just found this thread again... I'm about to pick up a built '86 Runner and I'm pretty new to wheeling, so I'm looking for some people to roll with who won't totally flame a newb who wants to learn. Any thoughts?
