The Frankenstein Build! LT/Expo/Trail rig..and BS

Hai guyz, I went on the rubicon!!


Only got about 1/6 of a mile before turning around, but I was on it!

Just the trails that split off of the tahoe entrance are really pretty to explore around on, too, though.

 

I think it is kind of a difference between Rock Crawl and Expo. Expo is about getting out and seeing places. Rock Crawling is about doing obstacles. So from the Expo standpoint you got out there and saw the trail. From the rock crawling stand point, you missed good obstacles.

 

I think of it like a videogame. Say Skyrim, lots of people have played and beat the main story. That's plenty for them and they feel they have done enough. Then there are those weirdos that live for the game and completed all the side quests as well. That's beating the game.

Did you drive the trail? Sure. Did you experience and complete everything it had to offer? No.

 

Dem side quests doe!

 

I agree with this, if you make it from point A to B then you completed it, it's not like the bypasses are paved by the way.

 

Complete and just running the trail are two different things. Nope, I didn't complete Goose but it wasn't any less fun for me to just be there and run it... Agreed it is a dumb argument since all that matters is your own damn happiness with what you do haha.

 

haha, doesn't bother me, I had a fucking blast!

 

Lmk if you go. I know Ferny was talking about it awhile back too...

 

Oh, we will go alright. It is inevitable.

 

This may be old news but... Did youy see the IDBDR route?

Some of it we've already done.

I would like start at Glenn Ferry and go all the way to Porthill. Without doing the Magruder/Lolo section, it seems like it could be done in 3, maybe 4 days, otherwise it's double that.

But then I couldn't claim I completed it.

 

Damn that's a rip off I got two for 60 bucks from the junk yard..lol

I hope to be on 37s when I hit rubi. But I'd be happy with 35s too.

Oh I'll go! Could be 2016..not sure yet..

Of course you would say this..cause when we go you'll be doing every bypass..gotta justify yourself I see...

 

Ooo nice. I wonder what the wy one will be like.

 

Lets make the WY one!

also Monte, check it out! http://www.yorracing.com/high-dessert-100/

snoop around the yellowstone off road racing site too.

 

No kidding! Actually wouldn't mind trying..should be easy

And yea I know about that! The baja 100 is held in powell twice a year. Or something like that. Frank will have to enter after a lot more work

 

yea was looking at the class rules... need cage.

Still think i need a reg cab ripper 1st gen! Then take it racing!!!!

 

Yea buddy!

Or a pre taco..haha

But yea. I need a cage. And rear setup.

Think it would be fun to enter though.

 

No doubt be fun! Might be a few years but would be a damn good time!

 

Yea gotta 4 link the rear and full cage and 2jz it. Then it'll be awesome.

Maybe Jon will be back in wy with his beast too to enter haha!

 

Damn 60 is awesome. Oh well. Already bought em. At least I'm all set on the cv front.

And 37s huh. Probably still open diffs

 

Haha open diffs for life

Nah I'll lock it before 37s. Plus. Might not do 37s. See how 35s play with the lt.
