Hey, I get to post the first thread in this section!
Comet asked me to post up over here on the new board.
The faithwheelers are hosting our 5th annual Obstacle Course and Mud Bog on June 17th, 2006. Same location at Cranberry Lake, WA, near Eatonville on Hwy 7.
I'll have a flyer up with details on our website shortly, at www.faithwheelers.com. I don't think anyone will like my 12MB word file that I have for printing the flyers....
The event has something for EVERYONE and is a completely family safe event. NO ALCOHOL is allowed on site. We've just about inked a deal for something BRAND NEW this year. In additional to completing the buggy hill we're working a deal with Enumclaw Suzuki to bring out a bunch of demo quads for the little kids, 6 - 16 so that they have something to do as well. As with everything else, it will be FREE for the kids. It's not set in stone yet as we have to iron out insurance details, but the owner of Enumclaw Suzuki, Clem is very keen on the idea.
We have something for EVERY offroad rig. The Obstacle Course is a track designed for the 33" tires and smaller. For the less modified rigs this is a LOT of fun. It's designed to offer challenging lines for those who want to try, as well as bypasses at the tougher spots. We had people run this as many as 9 times last year!
The Tuff Truck Course is designed for the big boys. There are obstacles that require significant articulation, tons of traction, perhaps a little water proofing and a significant amount of driver skill. We've worked on this to try to challenge every vehicle. LWB will do well on some while the SWB will do well on others. We have extraction equipment and recovery vehicles at all the critical points to keep traffic flowing.
Twin mud bogs to those who like to get dirty! We're going to shorten these up a bit from last year. By the end of the event, they'd grown to about 400' long! If you were there last year... we're going to push the starting area about 100' or more into the pit and see if we can dry it out and firm up the ground. The best part of the pit turned out to be the area past the bog by the end of the day. We'll try to take advantage of that this year as part of the bog. Expect these to be VERY tough, hopefully a little drier than last year and as usual they tend to get easier as the day goes on and everything get's slopped up. So if you've got a big bad mud bogger and want to show your stuff and be the first one through, come early!
Just in case no one believes that Robin will play in the mud.
The rock buggy hill will be completed this year. We only had a couple of buggies show up last year. I hope this year a few more come to play on this obstacle. It's open to everyone but if you're not prepared to handle a roll over, you probably won't want to play on this. We always attempt to make everything safe but this is an extreme obstacle and the risk of a rollover on an obstacle like this is always very real.
This is smoke coming off Porter's tires.
