Are we going to end up on the black diamond trails again?! :hiding:

 

[Kraze]

Are we going to end up on the black diamond trails again?! :hiding:

I sure hope so!

I should be able to make this. [MENTION=82691]Broker[/MENTION], do you want me to open this up to the FJ group again, or do you want to keep it on T4R only?

 

[Broker]

do you want me to open this up to the FJ group again, or do you want to keep it on T4R only?

Lets see how many people we get first.

I don't see why we can't do the black diamonds. I don't think anything there is that extreme. I'm pretty sure even the stock vehicles handled everything fine. But if we have enought 2wd show up we can break into two groups, if not we will keep it moderate on the trails.

 

[pimpsta]

I vote for October, just because it'll be a little cooler. But count me in for sho!

 

[4Running Daily]

I'm in for whenever! This is going to be good.

 

[04desertrunner]

put me as a maybe, going to see gabriel (fluffy) iglesias that night.

 

[4x4runner2002]

I'm in for the 22nd.

 

[BrianSD_42]

Ahhhhh on September 22nd I will be in Vegas for a wedding.

However looking at a map this place is very far from SD. Probably 450 miles round trip. I would be a maybe.

 

[4Running Daily]

I'm thinking about heading up there Saturday the 23rd and screw around for half a day, then camp, and meet up with you guys Sunday and drive home Sunday night.

hey you mean sat the 21st?
i get off work at 10pm on saturdays, but i would be down to come camp with you and i might have two more vehicles coming too a 4runner and a tacoma.

 

[cacarbuff]

I'm gonna be in Pismo!

 

[Keemonrunnin]

Ahhh man the 22nd! There's a pismo beach jamboree and a mojave run going on this same weekend. I was trying to decide on one of those and now I have to decide on this one as well. Pismo is about 4hr drive,mojave is about 4hr drive, then the adventure starts into the desert for the weekend. Then there is Gorman about 1hr drive, and there for the day. Hhhhhmmmmmm. I'll let you know as the date gets closer.

 

[Quatre Coureur]

I vote for October, just because it'll be a little cooler. But count me in for sho!

^X2 . C'mon Keemo Mojave will be too freakin hot and who wants to look at a bunch of bikinis at Pismo! Uh, never mind that last comment. Mojave will be too freakin HOT!

 

[pimpsta]

Just found out I'm going to be busy for all the weekends for the rest of the month. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE move this to October!

 

[Broker]

I wouldn't mind moving it October, but I have no free weekends the entire month of October.

 

[TheTuckerTaxi]

New to SoCal and looking forward to wheeling! I'm 50/50 for going to San Diego that weekend, put me down for a maybe. I would be down for camping Saturday night.

 

[HotRodKing]

I was thinking of heading down to socal that monday from the bay area. School is starting that week so it will be time for me to go back. If this is really happening, I'll come down early. I've always wanted to make it out to Gorman anyway.

Planning on keeping your shocks in this time? :thumb3:

 

[Broker]

Shocks didn't fall out last time. Just lost a spring, and I got that all dialed in now.

I'm even hoping to my bumpstops installed along with the new fenders as well for this
