DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

@Tundra2Play

 

YOHB?

 

I will probably go to this for the raffle and to support this group. Probably wont be doing much wheeling though as i have decided that event weekends = camping trips because there are just too many people on the trails. I will wheel when there are less broken vehicles / opposing direction traffic on the trails.

When is the next meet for DFW4WD?

 

Next TX4WD meeting should be Friday the 8th. No location has been posted yet. I've already signed up for MegaRun, but might be doing more volunteering than wheeling. I'm hoping my raffle luck from last year continues.

 

Yea, but no... I won't drive out there and then have to come back for the 5k that morning, then have to work overnights starting Saturday night, so will need to sleep most of Saturday...

That was Fall Run, I have done nothing for Mega Run.

 

Ahh

 

It's just a 5k, aren't you down to less than 30 minutes now? Lol

 

I am, but it is not just show up, run, and leave in less than 45 minutes for this race. It is Tyler's biggest race as it is also a 1k, 5k, and 15k and draws a shit ton of people, so I am there at like 7:30 or so and don't normally leave until 10am or so as they have a ton of stuff to give away afterwards lol.

 

You don't have to wait around for the banana and chocolate milk, you can grab that when you finish

 

Where's mega run? Do y'all have a thread for it, thanks.

That's tight. When is it? Sorry for newb q's

 

@ChadsPride

 

Thank you! ​

 

I do get it when I finish...

It is all the other free shit that I get after the race.

Barnwell, not thread for it.

Sometime in March.

 

looking to get my wheels installed, does Discount Tire swap tires/wheels? Tire shop i typically go to off 75/Spring Valley is cheap and quick but I dont trust them with the new wheels

 

I think they charge just the installation fee ($16 ea) to swap wheels and tires so $64 total. Be worth a phone call to double check.

 

In my experience, every shop has the equal possibility of damaging wheels. I take mine to the lowest offer at this point, usually some mom n pop shop for 10-15 a wheel. Discount is around 20-25 per wheel last time i checked.

Discount has some no-mar equipment but they also have very strict parameters on how fast they need to get jobs in and out.
