I might come say hi ill be out sat for sure.
 
So whats the entry list looking like?
 
Just got back from marking the course, 2500' of caution tape. Course should be fast but tight, several jumps. We need some volunteers for recovery and course marshalls. We really need some walkie talkies if anybody has some. Or maybe 2 rigs with CB's for the course marshalls. Everybody come out for some fun and Snappy's chile
 
Finally got the race jeep ready to go. Catching a nap and I'll see yall in the rear view in a few hours!
 
Congrats to Tony Hirco in the loaner marsfab #713 rig for the win!! Brad carrier one second behind who rolled the Marsfab #713 rig ten mins after getting there! And michael ???? In the red grand cherokee for 3rd.

Had a blast rolling over all 5 of the rigs today, guys where driving hard and having fun. Roger king killed the ironman4x4 race rig today and i hope he feels well in the morning. Thanks again guys.

My Jeep felt good but could not turn sharp enough for the tight course we ran! I felt like i was in grave drigger airing it out but looked more like a kid jumping his tricycle....
 
post some pics or video for us loosers that couldnt make it.

Had a blast today. Showed up and took a test lap. Tight course with a lot of jumps. Looked like fun. Then waiting to get started decided to let brad take the jeep for a test drive. He runs one lap like grandma. Comes back inand Chris told him to go drive it again. So puts the harness on and snugs it up (thank god) and heads back out. Hes moving prettys good. He goes into a right hand 180 turn and the next thing I know im looking at the bottom of my jeep from across the field.

I get it back to the trailer and bead the one tire back up and break the other one down and clean the dirt out of it. Get ready to go and to the starting line. Get up there and tony tells me he broke the tcase in his jeep prerunning. I offered to let him run my jeep. So i started and had the fast lap for a while. Then the $450 zj goes out and beets my time. I was thinking about paying to run again but knew tony was still going to run my jeep so I decided to wait.

Brad takes his first lap and sets a new fast lap. Figured no sense in blowing any more money and decide to just watch. Then tony goes out and runs 2 laps and beet everyone with my rig. Jeep took a beating today but all in all it was a good day. I had a blast. Now time for a beer and sleep.
 
Thats awsome to let Tony race your jeep Mike..even after letting Brad test the cage for ya!I had a ball and beat on my jeep like never before(believe it or not) Thanks for throwing this together Brad.
Thanks for the chili Snappy
Glad Roger and his co-dog are ok..that was hella-scary. His cage did it's job, but now its finished with it's job..used up pretty bad, hit so hard his winch motor come out of it's housing..and thats just the beggining of what all it hurt. even cracked the helmet..

Having a front locker really hurt in the turns today, but may have saved me when i was able to power and drive out of a long bycycle ride on my drivers side 2 wheels..thats was a long ride on 2 wheels..kinda kewl.
Think I busted the front r/p 1/2 way thru my fastest lap..go figure.

Heck yeah Tony thats baddass right there..drive a jeep a total of what..less than 6 minutes? And win it all! Thats good stuff, wheel man!
i Wanna see that vid of me and snappy jumping on the flat track!

Got some pics for your viewing pleasure. I wish I had a better camera. Should have some vids as well, but have to figure out how to upload those from the I-phone.

Great times all. I think we had 5 vehicles flop/roll. Roger's was the worst by far. Thankfully they walked away ok. It looked horrific. I think a few Jeeps went to Jeep heaven today.

man that was awesome. Thanks to everyone who made it possible, Brad did the legwork to get this event going, with Snappy helping and cooking some fabulous chili. Mike was so generous letting me drive the MarsFab 713, that was worlds above the junk I'm used to driving. Wish I could've reached the steering wheel, and I'm not sure I got the pedal all the way to the floor :D , but that thing was a blast to air out. Thanks NC4x4 for the contingency, I'll be sending email shortly!
