Sweet with od i can hit 60 in low range! Jk hope to have the jeep back on the trail by then. Either way i will be there
 
I downloaded the application, but would like a little description of the games. I may have missed it. I'm sure it will be a good time, no matter what.
 
roll to line...you take off in low range..aprox. 30 feet of take off space..then you shift to neutral and coast..no feet on gas or brakes. You'll have to scrub speed or what ever it takes to get your passengers side hub closest to a line..usually a tow strap.

ball and post...
you take off and pull up to a post and snatch a ball of the top..pass it to passenger and procede to next post..passenger places ball on that post..then into a turn around area..then back to the post where passenger snatches ball off post and hands it to driver then go to next post where driver places it back then take off to finish area.

nudge jug
tennis ball sittin on a milk jug of water
driver takes off and must nudge the jug with passenger tire enough to make the ball fall off the jug. Passenger and driver need to communicate since the driver cant see whats happening with passenger front tire.. Then turn around and nudge ball off jug with driver side
tire then take off to finish area.

balance beam..fastest to balance rig wins.

blind man...
driver is blindfolded. Passenger must ''talk'' the driver through the tight ,crooked course with out hitting tape or post. Not a fast game at all, but very fun indeed.



hope this helps some!

Okay, All are timed except 'Roll to the Line'.

Balance Beam: Drive up to balance in the fastest time!

Roll to the line: You have a starting line, cut off line and a finish line. Start and once you reach the 'cut off line' one must put the vehicle in neutral, no brakes and no throttle- only steering. A Judge will be navigating (passenger seat) to verify. One will try and come to a stop, using steering to scrub off speed, as close to the finish line as possible with the front right (passenger) hub. A measurement is taken. Closest to the finish line wins!

Ball and Post: You have a start and finish line (same line) and one ball and two posts (75 feet apart) and a turn around area or box. One starts and drives to the first post to take the ball off the top off the post from the drivers side. The driver then hands the ball to the passenger who puts the ball on the next post (passenger side obviously). Driver then drives to end (box), does a 'J' turn, drives back to post and passenger gets ball off of post (passenger side obviously) hands the ball to the driver who then puts the ball on the last post (driver side obviously) and then drives to finish line (box) where the the time is stopped. The ball needs to remain balanced for at least 2 seconds on top of the post (If it is windy). Confused -? I hope not - That game is fast paced and fun!! Fastest time wins!

Blind Dog Run: I think the most fun of all the games! A course is setup using posts and tape, flagging or pennant flags on a string. The driver is blind folded, the navigator tells the driver what to do! This will take place over obstacles and sharp turns! Time is added to the clock if your vehicle touches the tape and even more time if posts are hit or knocked down. Fastest time wins!

Nudge the Jug: Serious driver and navigator skill is needed for this one! The object is to knock the ball off the jug without spilling any water! Similar or same- start/finish line and 'J' turn as in the 'Ball and Post' game. This game uses plastic gallon milk jugs, water and a tennis ball. You better have some extra of these items! From the starting line one drives to a jug filled with water, on the ground, with a tennis ball on top of the jug (cap removed). Driver first stops at the jug, on the passenger side, with the jug at the front right (passenger) tire. The driver attempts to knock the ball off. The navigator needs to help the driver approach the jug! Then the driver goes to the end/box, does a 'J' turn and returns to the jug on the drivers front tire and attempts to knock the ball off. Then drives to finish line/ box. Time is added if water is spilled and even more time added if the jug is crushed or damaged. !! Fastest time wins!

Slalom Run: Timed event! This game has a separate starting line and finish line. One will start and weave between the traffic cones spaced evenly (maybe) on semi-rough terrain, to a finish line at the end. Fastest time wins!

---------------
Slalom Run, Nudge the Jug and Ball and Post games will have end 'boxes' that you will have to stop in. If one goes too fast and is not able to stop in the box(breaking the tape or flagging) additional time will be added.
 
Sounds like this will be a blast. I'm hoping I can make this. I'll sign up as soon as soon as I know if we can come play.
 
Our club is planning on coming this weekend, we did not know about the Jeep Jamboree so that should make it a little more exciting! We usually have 8-10 jeeps/yotas. Planning on camping on the trails somewhere, think this will be a problem from those who have gone the last years?
