    I'm just confused as to why cops are worried about an off road group... unless he is talking about the morons that were tearing up 4 mile creek area inside the city limits... Those idiots were ratard.

    MIOBI has the most members and has access to the largest(to my knowledge) private offroad place in the state. JOCCI has permission to use private land near Oskaloosa with terrain similar to "MIOBI grounds". There is also a new club, Midwest Adventure 4x4, that is based in the metro and now has permission to use that same private land near Oskaloosa. 4x4 Syndicate has access to private land in the NE part of the state and they have members in the Des Moines metro. They used to have access to an old rock quarry in the SE part of the state that was privately owned.

    You can find more club info here....

    Good cheap cars go fast around here! Within hours they are sold on Craigslist. I can't get a deal to save my life!

    You blew one already? You have to send those to Walker Evans to get rebuilt. I just had them done 2 years ago.

    They are 2.0 but they are about 6 generations old, I bought them from a guy who used them on his FJ and had Walker Evans rebuild them for me.
