Oregon and Washington BS thread

The isuzu was beast!

 

Blurry but that was a pucker moment

 

It was tough keeping him off tree stumps without sliderS

 

There were 4 of us today. Me, Jason(KalamaKid), Gary(Gdry06) and Danny (Jason's Buddy)

Here we are heading out there. 3 Tacoma's and an isuzu.



First trail was #20 Hoodraiser.









Then we drove till we found #10 University Firepower and #4b Powerline. Holy shit, Powerline can be tough in some spots.








Ill get the vidoes up as soon as I can


I had fun. And was very surprised how well the truck did. Sliders would have helped though just for peace of mind

 

Pucker effect, ETA 5seconds

 

Here is Jason running Hoodraiser infront of me. This is only part of the trail.

I was very surprised how well my truck held up.

 

Ha I thought that was the area you were talking about. We went the other way back on the 8th. Trying to get up that root is interesting, you want to turn away from the tree but you have to actually turn sorta towards it.

I know I'm always tossing out too much advice, but please bear with me since this one is a safety issue -

1. In the video, you guys had a natural tendency to reach for the tree and push it. Unless you can bench 4500 lbs., you aren't going to do much better than getting in the habit of busting an arm.
2. In that first video where you said, "Listen to him", that was awesome. One driver, one spotter. You get too many spotters and you confuse the driver on what to do. If the spotter can't see everything, the spotter needs to call for a stop and re-assess. i bring this up because I was on a trip where there were 3 yelling spotters and one driver who ended up on his side.


By the way, Jason sounded like he did a great job of play-by-play, especially with "you are going to drop here", "you are going to hear mudflap". Nice.


Nice job fellas. Keep us hungry for the 29th

 

It was fun!

 

Is there any video of Danny is his Isuzu?

 

Nice guys. I look forward to next weekend. Mitch, wish you can join us but have fun with your lady

EDIT Yeah where is this Isuzu you guys speak of

 

I thought I had video of him, but I guess I didn't catch any of him. He was too quick.

 

Is this up at Tahuya? I've been wanting to go up there since I got my truck, it's looks fun as hell. I want to go up with ya'll sometime, as long as you don't mind a no-name noob trying to keep up in a pretty much stock DC/LB with no A-TRAC I think she can easily make it through most of the runs, it's still a Tacoma w/ 4wd

 

Nope, browns camp area in tillamook state forest.

 

Jist quoted again for entertainment.

 

Aaah, I see. The TSF threw me off, I thought it was Tahuya State Forest. Well if you Oregonians ever wanna trek up north, we should get a group meet together for Tahuya. I really wanna check it out sometime.

 

Where's Tahuya?

 

It's right outside Belfair, WA. I've seen some nice off-roading pics/vids from up there.

 

Ill have to look it up.
In the mean time you should come to this: http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/no...-state-forrest-browns-camp-oct-29th-meet.html
