TEC || Ardbeg Summer Trail Cleanup June 25 - 27, 2021

Looks like I missed a great time, and, and you guys must have slept like babies with all that rain, I know I would have.

 

Yep, definitely missed out. VERY in for the October one!

 

What? I won the first one

 

Haley has it. Will post

 

No video - no proof, 3rd gen best gen.

 

Three third Gen in one shot


None are fast lol

 

I agree

 

Sorry for the tardy post!! I still have a few dash cam vids I'm going through too. Wasnt too much of a shudder bug this weekend.
Also @Shveet those pics of me in the water, looks like I'm not even stuck! Those rocks must have been tall.
So far, wet carpets, fuel tank skid plate that's bent to hell, a head light, back bumper chrome (ruined), along with a few other things. Will post a pic of the skid plate..... its proper f#cked

Also @Shveet amazing shots man!! Cant thank you enough for properly documenting the trip!
@Tridet167 I'm gonna have to invest in a gopro7

Ok, VIDEO PROOF THAT I WON ROUND ONE

Also, mentioned that Eugene had an extra 200lbs in the back but I'm curious what the weight difference between our two vehicles would be. I also had an extra 200lbs between what was on my roof and in my trunk. I basically pack all the tools I need to take apart the Runner if need be. Plus the 3rd gen Taco has 100hp over the 3rd gen T4R. ANYWAYS! 3rd gens win!

Also ya terrible quality, will upload in better quality later.

This was the first off-shoot on the way up to North Trail. You can see in the one spot where the tires just spun on the rock face and the truck slid to the right a bit

 

That Flex though

 

Looking forward to the skid plate pics

also thank you for the recognition - it's a thankless job but that's the first time i had someone thank me for doing amateur photography for the group
but agreed, 100% going to look into the new GoPros but that video was smoooooth as frick with us bombing through south as fast as we did. maybe a 360 cam.

 

Your could probably get a good deal now since they are at 9 I think. Good pics and video for sure.

 

The carnage to the fuel tank skid plate. Hit the cross member pretty hard too. Seems to have done its job though.

 

Hey, you going to the Milton meet?

 

Looks like a "need" to upgrade? https://www.coastaloffroad.com/product-page/3rd-gen-4runner-gas-tank-skid-set/

 

Did it pretty damned good on that one...
agreed with @3JOH22A, definitely NEED a new gas tank skid plate...

 

Is that this weekend? I need to look at the calendar again.

 

July 24 which is a Saturday
