Congratulations Chris. Let the fun begin and the bank account go south!!

This year we had a friggin' awesome turnout, I would have liked to put some faces to some names on here. For anyone that might wonder who I am, I was the Old Guy wearing the Safety Green "Staff" shirt Saturday. We will post money numbers up very soon after Jamie "Son of s Jeep" and I finish totaling things up. It's going to be good though.

Attendance Numbers were as Follows:
Friday Sign Ins:
Spectator/Passenger - 42
Driver - 91

Saturday:
Spectator/Passenger - 60
Driver - 101

Total: - 294

Thanks to everyone in attendance and for your continued support, this was the 10th anniversary and probably the biggest. Looking forward to next year already. :woot: :woot: :woot:

Great job guys! :dblthumb: :dblthumb: :dblthumb:

Re:

I took pictures of the campsite, smoker, and then of my transmission out of the buggy when I got home yesterday. So I tool crappy pictures is what I'm saying.

Did anyone make the left side of Copperhead? I was denied but saw a couple of epic beat downs on it but didn't personally see anyone make it. Also saw several flops on the right side of Copperhead and a couple of great reverse saves there. Had a great time, drove back on the trailer Sunday morning. Thanks to all that have served and are serving. RTR

Thanks to all that came out and supported the ride this year.
Congrats to Chris on winning the wife lottery and the chassis from JDuck.
I would like to thank Ting' for all the help and for sticking it out for 10 YEARS helping keep this event going. And of course for the Mohawk tradition year after year.
We are still waiting on a few donations that are coming in and for the credit card money to drop in. Afterwards, we will post up a total. I will tell you this...it's the largest amount
raised yet. Thank you to MGO Steve, Robo, Jesse, Tripp, Rob, Logan, and others who came up without a rig just to help work and take some of the stress from Mark and his family and the rest of us.
Jamie

Re:

I would assume pulling it on three tires is easier than on 2. But it is Julio, so.....2 might be the easier way.

Dam...we missed that. Must have happened late saturday? It was still rolling on 4 wheels when I stopped near the top of rbd to say hey.

44BRAND · Jun 1, 2017

We were almost back to camp when that happened. The housing starting burying itself in the mud, Julio is hollering at me to hit the gas, and hes gonna "help" with the back tires. Well, he still had the left front hub locked and no steering. So when he "helped", there she went onto its side. 2 :drinkers: and 3 tires equals a long recovery. The best part was when we had 5 winches hooked to him trying to get it onto his trailer :****:. By then his "helping" had it down to one tire drive. broke the rest. The green and purple car looked like a Verizon tower with all them cables and ropes hooked to it. molaugh molaugh

Seems like it is almost time for a strap. Pretty sure that would ride all the way to GA with a little luck and some bacardi
