[momo.75]

Yep, Walmart in Sylacauga right on 280 around noon. I might be a few minutes late A_Hul and Gaterose are coming from Tuscaloosa and will be running a little behind because of some previous commitments.

I will bring the decals with me

I've got some pictures that I'm sifting through. We didn't really stop on the difficult areas so everything is just kinda dirt road shots.

 

[Dpassmore]

How many were there?

 

[gaterose]

How many were there?

Four 4th gen 4Rs, one 3rd gen, two 1st gen Tacos and one 2nd gen

The trail consisted of a few miles of very rough terrain, obviously we had three 2wds with us so it wasn't hardcore, but it was rougher than I expected. There were several water/mud holes but they all seemed to have a solid bottom. I can't speak for others but I definitely fully stretched my suspension (and discovered new scrubbing) and lifted a tire slightly a few times. The trail could be pretty tough if you don't know how to drive but anyone with good instincts or basic off road skills should be able to handle it (at least when dry as when we went).

There weren't a lot of stops during the obstacles for pictures so these are pretty much all stagnant except for a couple shots of A-Aron hitting one of the two actual 'difficult' obstacles and (can't remember his name) hitting the other.

Group shot in downtown Sylacauga(?)

Stop at the first overlook, the 4ths lined up

The other direction

Pretty gnarly powerline hill climb, required some heavy throttle

And descent

Me

The second real obstacle that A-Aron climbed

Took some doing and skinny pedal but he got up it the second time

To the victor goes the poser shot at the top

This led to the second overlook

Third overlook

Morris, Adam, and me at the 3rd overlook 'parking area'

More shots at the 'parking area'

Thanks for posting the pics. I spent about 4 hours pressure washing and hand washing today. Looks like I will have to break out the polisher tomorrow to take care of the new pinstripes.....lol. Also need to fix the broken sway bar end

Can't wait to go back this fall

 

[Greydog]

Wow, that looks awesome, great fun and great pics.

 

[jab08]

Awesome pics!! Hopefully we can get another ride going this fall. Gaterose do you mind if I save a few of your pictures? Id like to post some on my IG if you don't mind. Btw my IG account is jabstr08 that's where I post all of my build pics.

Sure thing, I meant to watermark them so it wouldn't matter but I forgot. You can still use em though I'd appreciate credit.
