TracTractor Offroad's Huge Bitch Run, Jan 26th!

[binderbound]

I am organizing/leading a snow run Jan 26th. We roll from the Safeway in Molalla at 8am sharp. If you need directions, its the intersection of highway 211 and highway 213.

Rig requirements:
minimum 35" tire
at least 1 locker
CB
food
shovel
appropriate recovery gear
no fear of body damage
be in good enough shape to pull winch cable
not have a shitty attitude

Extra stuff thats nice to have:
Extra clothes
winch
camera
trailer

We will be heading up into the 'Goat Mt' area but going higher than the towers. Last year we got into the 5'-6' foot deep range.

This is for advanced wheelers/rigs only. If its your first time wheeling ever and you just got brand new 35's to fit on your XJ, this might not be your run.

Probably want to leave the kids at home.

I'm bringing some wood to start a fire with when we take a lunch break, you can if you want too.

We probably wont get back till late. 99% of the guys/girls who have already committed to this run are trailering, you should too.

If you show up and dont meet the above requirements, dont expect help when you get buried in the 1st 10 minutes.

Always, pack it in, pack it out.

I'm not kidding about the body damage.

Post up if your interested. Maybe some vehicle specs too.

No, your more than welcome. Make/model doesnt matter. As long as its 4wd. Glad to have you.

Body damage???? I guess I could try... my rig is pretty straight right now...


You available some time next week to p/up some mud flaps?

Mid week. Wednesday or thursday I'll be over in that area. Since your door-less now, can have the window cranks back?

[lewd]

you bet.
you can have the whole damn doors if you want...
maybe I should save the outer skins just in case for the future though.

Great. If we see you, we see you. If not, watch for pics after the run.

I requested the day off work, but haven't heard back yet as the boss hasn't been in with New Year's and all. I really don't know if the Scout will make it up or not, but at the very least I plan on showing up and seeing if I can catch a bitch seat.

Hey Binderbound...

I just went on a fun little snow run yesterday. It was in Cottage Grove. check out this post of mine and the link to my pix & vids. There was a nice BIG green Scout with us.

Unacceptable! Put a good front tire on it and get Phil to tow it for you. I think your scout would do great since its so light and what not. 35's might hold you back a little but I doubt it would be THAT big of a deal.

[uglyscout]

I'm in.

Almost forgot to posty some stats like everyone else seems to be doing -- And to ask if I can come!!!!

IH with all the gearing the factory saw fit to offer...
36" IROK's
Hammered body.

Well Damn, I'll do my best. Talked to the boss today and it looks like a go, but we'll have to wait and see how the schedule shakes out before it's 100%, probably the last Saturday event I'll be attending for a great while.

Liar. I dont think IH offered a 72 scout with a wide ratio T-19/D300 and 4.56'ed 44/14bolt. You can still come though.

Well it only makes sense that your last outing will be the most rightously kick ass one. Dont forget your ski goggles and chap stick if you do bring your rig.

[Binder]

I fear body damage and my attitude sucks........Besides I don't think I could keep up with you guys.

[Major Screwup]

I'd like to go, but I have a shitty attitude....

If your not home by 4pm you turn into a pumpkin. I'm starting to think your afraid of the dark


Binder-that didn't stop you last year. Long ways to go for some snow but you know your always welcome. You might be bored since its not comp practice but who knows, it might get interesting.

Ugly told me today that he's got the friday before the run off, so we can haul the Scout to Phil's house in Colton before the run and then I suppose I can drive it from there. How many miles are we going to be on "legal" roads before we hit not normall patrolled? Also how far are we towing up, are we going to be towing through the snow?

Hopefully there won't be any snow to tow through. Depending on turn out, we might unload at the high school and run the 2 miles of backroad. Otherwise, we unload at the gun club gate. I'm just worried that we all won't fit at the gun club. You can only fit about 12 trucks/trailers. So far the trailer count is 9.

We'll just have to see. . .

[binderbound]

Went up today for a little pre-run. Took the NonPirateScouter's rig up. Every trip up she gets better at wheeling. Snow was deep and there were a lot of people up there. A few pics...



those are 36" iroks on top of about a foot of packed snow.

Gonna be a great run!

I had on long johns, sweat pants, and snow board pants for bottoms. Up top I had T-shirt, long johns, long sleaved shirt, sweat shirt, snowboard jacket. When we had to dig a few times I got HOT but otherwise I was perfect all day. Not too fat, right?


As for buring rock scout, I'm gonna have Hugh and Berne lead with thier 44's/42's then the rest of us. Maybe you should run closer to the back so the snow is easier to clear.

Oh you know you like it. You guys didn't have any problems last year.

You can push if you want. Why do you think I have the stinger back there?
