So the time came to sell the outback

I got a good price for it IMO, and needed more towing capability. So I decided to venture to the tacoma

The outback did everything terrain and capability wise i needed, so the tacoma is more than adequate for my region. But its going to be super awesome to camp on the beach in places that the teardrop wasn't able to due to grey water tank rules. Another reason we wanted a slide in over keeping the teardrop!

Please, tell us about your overland experience since you're apparently the walking, talking definition of an "overlander."

This wheel knockoff argument (not even vtx really) has been happening for decades.
Rota, XXR, and other shit have been doing it forever. It's not new.

You're arguably the biggest douchebag I've seen in 2017.

No.
It's people like you that support a scumbag like @VTXWheels who can't design their own stuff.
It's much easier to just steal someone elses work.
You are the problem.

This is the email I got. Call it what you want, or just don't be confrontational and we can avoid all of this and just get to what the thread was started for.

Hello,

*First and foremost BE SURE all of your teammates are receiving this message as it contains extremely important information. YOU WILL NOT HAVE CELL SERVICE FOR NEARLY THE ENTIRE ROUTE. I still get error messages on a couple emails, stating the email is incorrect. Please get with me asap to fix this if your teammate isn't receiving this update. *

This weekend marked the first time the entire Rally course was completed. Erik (the 1st gen 4runner guy) and I left Saturday morning and headed south. Day 1 is in the heart of the Appalachian mountains and the terrain is navigable but if you are inexperienced, or tend to get excited while on questionable terrain, you should be extremely cautious while navigating the course. There are many opportunities for you to flip, or obtain body damage. This can be avoided by choosing a common sense safe route through the trails. You will get scratches. I know some of you have purchased brand new vehicles and plan on driving them. Please realize that when doing this type of activity pinstripes are inevitable, but a good buff will take most of these out. Throughout the day, a small oil leak in Eriks first gen became bigger and bigger. If you don't count our stops, our tires were moving 9 hours 52 minutes and 39 seconds. We finally made it to our destination late that night, set up camp, and talked about whether or not Erik should continue.

Camping location for night 1: Dark Holler Off Road Park

DHOR has stepped up and offered group camping for the entire group on night 1. This is where we settled down after night 1 of our tracking. The owner and his sons are very stand up people and are very welcoming and excited to host such a large event. DHOR will be the ONLY location during this rally you have the opportunity to remove points... so although you will be tired, I really encourage all of you to hit some trail to remove points. The harder the trail, the more negative points it's worth. Nobody will get a perfect score. The park is only a couple of years old, and has trails from mild to wild. I will be traveling back down there at a later dates to track trails and with the help of DHOR staff, determine how many points each trail will be eligible to remove from your score. Please note that due to us camping where vehicles normally traverse, GLASS BOTTLES ARE NOT ALLOWED. If you are found with a glass bottle you will immediately be disqualified and escorted off of the property. Cans, (and sippy cups for you jeep guys) are permitted.

We woke up on day 2 and Erik and I felt it was best if he turned back. The route only gets more remote on day 2 and we feared that something may go wrong deep into the wilderness. I continued south and again drove from daylight to dark. Day 2 has more high speed dirt and gravel roads, as well as some gritty trail. The average moving speed rose by several mph on day 2 and there are plenty of opportunities to hit higher speeds on forest roads. I travel through a few campgrounds while on these roads so please slow out of courtesy and safety to 15mph when approaching these campgrounds. Children may be present. Some trails are extremely hidden and if your codriver isn't paying attention you WILL pass them up. The codriver is much more important than the driver on day 2. If you're running solo, PAY ATTENTION CAREFULLY. I moved a total of 8 hours 40minutes day 2. Tired and nearly out of fuel, I decided to sleep right beside the road on night to in hopes that if I ran out of fuel, I could flag someone down. Nobody passed by. Camping is still in the works on day 2 and I will update you when I figure something out.

I awoke the next morning to an annoying ass bird chirping a monotonous song that made me want to kick baby seals down a colonial era stairway. Tired and flustered about the fuel situation, I continued south. Running on fumes, I finally found a small town to refuel. After fuel, I continued south and reached the last of 3 states we will see: Georgia. The flora and fauna of this area is completely different from the mountains just north of here. The dirt is sandy and looks less like red clay, it's hot, dry, and prison crews work in in the ditches. I had finally reached the dirty south. I passed through areas where gas station windows are barred, roads are straight and the earth is so flat, if you look far enough you can see the back of your head, you should try it sometime. This is the highest speed sections of the rally, and you will reach 70mph. You will enter Gainesville, GA and the finish line is so close you can taste it:

Left Nut Brewery: The Finish.

This brewery is the epitome of Red Clay Rally grit. The building is an old Johnson & Johnson bandage factory, and the owner and his employees are of an awesome caliber. Between DHOR and LNB, I have never felt so welcomed in my life. I was treated like family. In 1936 Gainesville was hit by a devastating F5 tornado, one of the most destructive in US history, the brewery building even served as a makeshift hospital as the citizens rebuilt their city. The staff went above and beyond providing a tour, taught the history of the area and providing me with a much needed drink to wet my whistle. Georgia law is strange, as you cannot sell beer directly out of a brewery. They simply sell a souvenir glass and tour, then the beer is a complimentary sort of thing. The Brewery has agreed to name a special brew after the Red Clay Rally, and I hope to see all of you enjoying a glass or three.

You will be absolutely drained after this rally. I cannot explain how tired I was while driving this route. It will challenge your machine, but that pales in comparison to the level of fatigue you will experience after this event. Please get good sleep each night and ensure you and your crew are ready for the following day. I enjoyed this more than anything I've ever done, and I think you will too. Prepare your vehicles. I cannot emphasize this enough. If you block the trail due to breakage or getting stuck, remember you will accrue not only your points, but every teams which is blocked also. This will absolutely destroy your chances at winning the rally. This is not a weekend camping trip. This is a 3 day expedition through the oldest mountain range on earth. We passed an old plane crash in the mountains, abandoned vehicles presumably left forever, and drunken armed mountain men in the middle of nowhere. Completing this is quite the feat. Winning it is near impossible. I wish all of you the best of luck, and hope each of you make it through.

42 days left. Forty-two.

I would email Zack and ask for a recommended gear list, as he's organizing the event and should have full knowledge of what the bare essentials need to be - outside of whatever he suggests/requires, that's mainly for your own personal comfort.

I dont support them. I have ultra wheels. I also have had 2 or 3 dozen name brand wheels from the likes of volk, work, weds, leon hardiritt and others.
I was merely stating a fact

i stumbled on to some gold here. People are hating on other people for wanting to get out and use their vehicles and enjoy themselves outdoors. I dont understand it nor will i ever. This site is a wealth of information for many people including myself but sometimes you have to wade through the bs
