Well I came home a lil earlier than I planned still had a blast met some new friends and had one hell of a saturday night lol. I spent most of the time wheelin, wrenchin, and drinkin(in that order lol). Not many action pics but I got pics of a few of the trucks/buggys there was 130+ rigs that showed up and a few more showed up as I was pulling out.


At camp my truck parked by the "mud duck" damn thing was HUGE 50" tractor tires.


Well the guys I was runnin with all had big trucks to pull me out so I gave it a shot.

Johns truck on 42"s that tried to pull me out.... It couldnt budge it we had to bust out the mud duck and use his 10 ton pto winch to drag me out lol.

Chads Suzuki he rolled it a few times but he doesnt much care lol.

This is Ron's buggy they call Big O its a former TTC contender 2007 damn thing is a beast.

Rons other buggy he built for his dad.

K5 on 44"s

Chevy 350 powered Jeep.

Another pic of Johns big ford

Hippy Dans Landcruiser 350 chevy powered with 60/14 bolt he sunk it at the end of saturday had to rebuild the carb at camp to get him rolling again.

A buggy that parked by us for awhile looked cool but didnt see him run it.

A pic of the campground on Saturday.

Andys tubed out jeep I want to do this with an X lol

A pic out my rear window while I was waiting on John to catch up long trucks dont work so hot in the woods.

A buggy that passed me while I was waiting


They call this area the Playground.



Close up of the Duck

The Duck pullin John out one of the smaller holes at the playground.


A couple descent looking set of FJ's

A cool shot of the campground Saturday night b4 the band and the drinking lol.

The Duck was stuck so John had to snatch him turns out when you sink a truck that big to the front bumper shit breaks tryin to get him out tore the rear frame broke the u joint and Yokes on his doubler and the impact cracked the bellhousing by the starter.

I gotta kick outta this lol.

Rockhounds Comanche

Pyros buggy that tried to pull me out of a hole and broke my strap I hate straps they suck..


A big diesel that showed up as I was leaving so didnt get to see if it worked good or not.

trail rash on my truck lol.

My tires were rubbing when stuffed and turned so Dustin busted out his Sawzall an fixed my problem lol.

I was in between a rock and a hard place.... literally my toolbox needs replaced now buzzkill

We had to loop the strap when John tried to pull me out b/c it was to long and he couldnt get me unstuck but did manage to bend the tubes on the roll bar.

My exhaust broke here first.

Then here lol.


All in all I only broke one U joint on the front driveshaft which was a quick fix but I had t rig up a chain to limit my front travel I kept poppin the driveshaft out the slipyoke b/c of to much flex and my rollover switch kept getting tripped so we just bypassed it. Cant wait for the Labor day event.

Did you notice the club name? Its a blast out there I highly recommend anyone remotely close to Knoxville IA make it out once to try your luck at the 800 acres of old Quarry. I didnt take alot of action shots b/c I was playin around and didnt feel like stopping. A few people got video of Me and Brian(mud ducks owner) gettin stuck and if they show up on youtube or the MIOBI site Ill post them.

Im just gonna ditch my front fenders I dont need them anyway. Ill prolly replace the headlight though and my toolbox is where my battery is so Ill have to do something about that. We had the fenders off when I first got there as we were going to see if I could fit the ducks spare 44" boggers but they wouldnt clear my toolbox or front doors so no go on that I need to try and find a set of like 38" tall boggers or tractor tires and I definitely have to do something about that damn slip yoke front drive shaft either a doubler or something.
