Badlands Offroad Park Run - Attica IN! Sat Oct 19, '13

[farmerjon]

Several of us 3rd gens joined an FJ Summit at the Badlands Offroad Park located in Attica, IN.

Rained all morning while we convoyed in, was a muddy yet awesome day for most, if not all!

That was an awesome day to get such a variety of trucks out and have a good time. And no damage to boot, really enjoyed meeting everybody and appreciate those who took pictures!

Looks like a great time! I'd love to make it over there sometime.

 

[IndyMK3]

I wish I could have made it out... =(

 

[ReconCmdr]

Looks like everyone had a ball! Woulda been a great trip to join!! I went to Badlands this last weekend...had a great time with my cousin and some others I just met through him. Dudes that wheel are usually some great people! Unfortunately last obstacle of the day I blew something up....4 wheel drive is now shot!! . Luckily was able to make it home in 2wheel drive.

Are you up here? I saw a truck just like yours a few weeks ago on the west side, just south of the track on 10th st. It was turning out of a powder coating and garage area...


[MENTION=92786]IndyMK3[/MENTION] We put up a meet up notice, but it got moved to the off-roading section, and since a lot of people don't venture to that section, a few didn't see it. I'll try to put it a few more places next time.

Yep that was me! I picked up the side rails to my factory roof rack that I had powder coated at same time as my new Whitson Metal Works full length rack...I am heading back this afternoon to pick up the rack and put it on! I saw you and wondered if you were on the forum!

Yeah I sure wished I woulda saw that you all were coming out....all I did was homework that weekend. Would have been nice to link up with you guys and head out!

 

[Millerad1651]

Ha, thats funny...I wondered the same about you. You living around there? I'm guessing you're up here for school...where?

Ya like I said, there was a thread in the 3rd gen section about the trip, but it got moved to the off-road section for some reason. Not many people saw it because of that. All of us 3rd gen guys have each others numbers so it was easier to get ahold of everyone. PM yours and I'll let you know next time we go out. I'd like to do one more trip this fall before it gets too damn cold.

I am PM'ng you my contact info.

 

[IndyMK3]

I would have went with you guys but it was my anniversary weekend and I was in Cincinnati. If we plan another one for a Sunday here soon I can make it out.

 

[jmildoc]
