Hoxviii · 02-09-2009, 01:41 AM

I'm in St. Louis, but I'm out of wheeling until I'm out of school and have enough money to buy a dedicated rig. Learned the lesson with my last truck (the one in my avatar) on having a DD/wheeler- having to fix whatever broke got old.

But I DD an 86 f-150 on 35's that sees an occaisonal trail and mudhole. I typically play recovery vehicle, learned the lesson on body damage with my last truck as well. 12K winch, detroit locker front end, twinstick 205, NP435

Redeye · 02-11-2009, 12:13 PM

I have a 95 YJ Rolling on 39's 3/4 link with 5.3L & air shock. I try to get out as much as I can. I have been to Washita Offroad Park, for which is only 45 min from my house & also go to private land over in S.C. & SMORR.

techteacher · 03-12-2009, 06:17 AM

I am a little north of STL. I live in St. Charles but have property in Troy. I am heading to Disney this weekend. I was wanting another rig to go since I had an empty spot on my trailer. Leaving tomorrow morning around 7 or 8. Best wheeling I have ever done no mud like the other places unless you want that then there is plenty. Mud ruins to much stuff rocks just bend things a big hammer can fix.

crusheda · 03-17-2009, 10:37 AM

I'm close enough to St. Louis, I'm over in Alton, IL. Got a fullsize bronco 1988. I usually just watch at most of the events around here, since my bronco always seems to be broke down.

I have seen both of you two driving around the City. I have a shop over at the corner of Watson & Arsenal, & occasionally keep my Jeep up there.

SCOTTY X · 04-21-2009, 09:04 PM

I live 2 hours east of you in Carbondale, IL. Check out our club website GAORC.COM. We usually wheel at Tellico (not anymore), Flat Nasty, or Harlan. We are going to Flat Nasty over memorial day and will likely go to Harlan, Clayton, and Hannibal at some point this season. Vehicles in our group range from TJ's on 33's to rigs running rockwells and 44" tires. We also attend a few competitions each year as spectators, last year we made it to XRRA Grey Rock, WE Rock finals in Hannibal, and King of the Hammers. Our first event this year will be the Grey Rock XRRA race the first weekend in May. Check out the site (GAORC.COM), we'd love to have some new members!

Bushwhacker · 04-21-2009, 10:52 PM

We are in Godfrey IL, just across the stream from St. Louis. Compete in RROCK at Hannibal Rocks, wheel at Washita, Flat Nasty, and heading to SMORR this weekend for Howiepalooza.
