Anyone planning on going?

I have not heard much from anyone lately about it. I typically always go for the whole weekend, but with hopefully closing on my house this week and doing a hefty remodel plus having 2 weddings that weekend, I am not sure it is fully doable. But I am not so hard to sway towards a good time, so....

I've been wanting to make it over for that. Was hoping for this year but wife just lost her job. I'd have to probably park somewhere else since I'm a flat lander /"Mall Crawler".

The problem is it's my dd and I'm still paying on it. I've been off road quite a bit. Not as hard as you guys go and haven't posted about it. All that may change soon. Someone else may get the chance to beat it.

She'd love it! She drives it a lot when we're on the logging roads. She grew up mudding too. I'm starting to dislike mud the older I get!

The guys I go with around here call my rock sliders stump grabbers! I try to always carry a chainsaw when I go. I need to fill in the gaps with some plate steel.

OK folks, one week away. It sounds like there will be five of use there.

1. Regulator (Matt)
2. Hardtrailz (Kyle)
3. Hatchet (Joe)
4. Hotness (AJ)
5. Razorback

There is also a maybe still out there.

I will be at the gate at noon on thursday when they open up the fairgrounds. I will be roping off a spot for our group in our normal area. Hopefully I will be there early enough to get on the corner where the parade route turns into the vendors row. It is a high traffic spot and will get a lot of attention.

I have a couple of camp grills and tables. Anyone able to bring a pop up tent? If not we can stretch a tarp between two trucks roof racks. I will have a tarp and bungees if this is the route we have to go. Otherwise, bring your chairs, coolers (alcohol friendly despite what the signs say, just don't be stupid), and food. If anyone has parking lot games (ladder ball, corn hole, washers, ect) bring those as well.

See you all next week!

I have washers, but my pop-up tent was slightly destroyed by the wind. I got a really cheap replacement that may or may not last an hour, but will bring it.

Is there a need for jack or jackstands? Is there anything else we might possibly need? I do not have a pop up tent unfortunately.

I may be able to piece enough bolts together but I don't think I have the time or energy to mount that bigass TC skid

TC skid? When did you get that?

Razorback said:
The reason I didn't register, mine don't look like all of yours, its just lifted and has bigger tires
That's what mine looks like. I don't have anything to fancy. Mainly its just a spot for me to sit and store stuff lol.

ETA: I agree wtih Kyle. Show them what it could look like with a few hundred bucks into the ride instead of the blood sweat and tears that are in ours.
