[draggbody]

he's a nancy... be to afraid to break that pile....

 

[shawns1ton]

don't let Brian fool yea, he is down with the mud as the next Fl boy!! lmao

 

[1TONZR2]

I never said I didnt go into the mud.....but I dont go looking for it!

I asked a couple of questions on our forum....dunno if it will help you make your decision or not....

will the competitors really be pulling a dozer? doubtful that many would be able to...since they are HEAVY
I doubtit will be a dozer, maybe a non hydrostatic drive front end loader or maybe a backhoe.

what if your vehicle currently does not have the safety requirements but are in process of building/installing them?
as long as they are completed by showtime.

registered...

 

[GStone]

huh....My Pops lives in Ponte Vedra at the Saw Grass country club...I'd love to redneck up his neighborhood with my dually and trailer. How far from there is this place? Will a comp style buggy have a chance or am I going to be riding through 22 feet deep water holes?

 

[rock yuppie]

Put a good snokle on those rigs Jimmy and JR. If it's like some of the other FL parks I've seen, they are DEEP.

 

[1TONZR2]

no mud holes at this event, unless it is just a small one on the trail if it rains. this places stays fairly dry, even if it rains. It has motor cross courses on it, thats what it was originally built for, now the owners (for the last year or 2) are getting into our side of it. Its cool to see something like this down here in FL.....has lots of potential.

Ponte Vedra is prolly about 1.5-2 hours from Ocala. damn, Sawgrass??? PLAYA! :afro:

I honestly think the buggies will stomp ass on these courses, I honestly dont know what to expect for the pull part or the "bender" the rest of it will be some pretty steep/tall (for FL) hills that are loose sand/gravel on top of rock.......all you have to do is out drive me! if I get to enter!

the courses arent 100% made yet, they will be starting on them in a couple weeks.
