Their gallery page only has photos of a street rod and some kid in a lifted SuperDuty doing donughts in a cornfield. I'm sure he doesn't have permission to be in that field that he is tearing through = trespassing.

I do not condone illegal wheeling. Nor does TRS, and I don't really think that's the type of publicity that the mudfest "organizers" should be promoting.

Besides, I'd hardly consider that to be "Mid- Illinois".....

i would like to see more pictures of the event. didn't see much on the website? and the video of the lifted ford in the field wasn't dosn't really do much for me.

a number of years ago i went to a mudfest type thing in alledo IL. sounds like just about the same thing. it was a good time, any connection? they called it the brickyard? seemed to me it was ran by a big guy(and i mean large dude), named dan, and he had what at the time was the largest truck i had ever seen. any bigger and i would have thought it was a monster truck.

no not any connection there are a lot of independent mudfests out there but they are pretty cool and fun a lot of people show up there

that was the rumor at what happend with the brickyard, the guy that put on the mud fest had permission to do it, but the farmer really didn't know what a "mud fest" was, and when he found out it was a bad deal. i believe the land owner ended up in jail for trying to kill the guy that put on the event, or something like that.
