Alabama thread!

Can’t make it there in time so we are at academy checking them out real quick.

 

That looks shitty when wet

 

It's always wet hence the name boat ramp......

 

Oooof got me on that one

It looks more shitty after a heavy rain

 

Had fun with my wife’s Kia. Replaced the serp belt, brake fluid etc. Went to change the plugs and low and behold after 270k the valve cover gasket went poo poo. Not just poo, but an hour long careful scraping of dried poo. Luckily the parts store gave me the wrong gasket so the fun will extend into tomorrow.

 

But then some do this. Watch from here one guy straight creepy crawls the thing like it's nothing. The first few are what I mean by you pull up and you gotta hit that bitch.

Yeah that dude was running stickies according to the audio commentation

 

All of them were/are

 

Here's the sami straight crawling boat ramp @JBTacoma

I have tried 3 times never made it

 

Stickies make a world of difference, that is why I want to stretch mine and go 39s or 40s

BFGs not Treps

 

Around here BFG reds, SXs, Sticky Mickies, or those USDs. The first 2 are the better all around stickies IMO

 

Here is one failing lol

From what I have watched I agree

 

Doubt duratracs will do any better. Let's see what happens!

 

To show you what it looks like

 

Hell yeah

 

You got 2 options carry a lot of speed and momentum hitting it or do a very skillful crawl. What's deceiving is the area where the water runs is where the grip is watch closely the guys who crawled it line they went left.

 

It is hard to get over to the left, you drop in a hole that runs all the way across the bottom right as you start up it steep part and it is full of mud and water. If a truck hits it with any speed it will be a big jolt for sure.

Now that the tree is gone it may be easier

 

I've seen quite a lot in person. Last on my list would be the Maxxis they seem to be pretty junkie. The USD and stickie mickies seem to be designed for the rock bouncer crowd but the mickies do pretty well with regular wheeling. The Reds are just the all around stickie. The SXs well they are kinda king leave them like they are and a good all around tire, get crazy and cut them things up some they have a bunch of meat to them to recut the center treads to a different pattern and deepen and lengthen the side lugs.
