Schweet! Just got confirmation from Tim @ CRAWL that they will be returning this year too. Maybe you can get in a magazine...mmm...again.

Planning is going well too! Lookin' like going to be one of best Rocktoberfest yet!

95steel · 08-09-2007, 09:45 AM

You know my dumb ass will be there

I am looking forward to actually driving my heep around for once!
The last four years I have worked every minute of the event. I plan on helping, but I am looking forward to getting out of the campground for more than five minutes!

Sandspyder44 · 09-17-2007, 08:10 PM

Ha ha ha ha!

95steel · 09-20-2007, 07:49 AM

So there is a buggy frame, shit load of tires, and a shit load of winches in the raffle...... I think they are going to need a bigger truck to haul all of that shit and fireworks down!

custom01 · 09-20-2007, 11:50 AM

Coming from Knoxville, TN how far of a pull is it.

95steel · 09-20-2007, 12:36 PM

Speedcravin (Josh) just pulled through that area back to here. I honestly can't remember. It is over 10 hours if I remember correctly.... just not sure.

custom01 · 09-20-2007, 03:46 PM

Thanks. Will try to find directions and see if I can get a group that way

Sandspyder44 · 10-03-2007, 09:06 AM

I'm running the miles right now on Rand Mcnally here at work and from Knoxville, TN proper to Ozark, AR Proper it's 627 miles. All I-40 also (fyi).

Ozark is right on I-40 and then Cass is about 17 miles down the "Pig Trail Senic by-way" from Ozark, AR (AR 23). From there you will drive about 7 miles on AR 215 to Byrd's Adventure Center.

tortis · 10-10-2007, 05:20 PM

this will be my first rock crawl. can't wait to see it up close.

tortis · 10-11-2007, 04:29 PM

is it worth attending this event if you don't have a rig? i want to bring my wife and let her have a first hand look at rock crawling and off-roading in general, but what can we see from the campgrounds? i drive a civic, so off roading with it is out of the question. how far are the trails from the campground? thanks for any insight. robert

Sandspyder44 · 10-11-2007, 07:44 PM

Come on down or up in your case!

There will be competition that will be held Friday am/afternoon and Saturday am/afternoon. I will have a schedule of the competition events soon. Most of it will be held in the campground or near by. Trail rides will be going out all times on Friday when groups get together and Saturday AM. I'm sure we will be able to find you a seat some where. This years' raffle is going to be outstanding, about 5 sets of tires, 5 winches, a buggy chassis and everything in between. If you guys make it up look me up. Ask around you'll be able to find me.
