I will be there :rock:

 

its a long ways off but were gonna try and make it this year.

 

My b day weekend, might have to go.........

 

Ron's a great guy. Glad he found somebody to team up with to continue putting on the show. This has been a great event and has gotten better every year. Missed the first one but made the last 3 and planning on making this one.

 

Sounds like a great 1st comp for the newly remodeled ZJ!!!!

 

I'm in to show my support for Dave & Wildtime fabrication, great guy to deal with and his parts are great quality to boot.

 

This will be a great time for everybody, SO, with plenty of time to make plans DON'T MISS IT. Get your trucks ready, and make sure you have Aug.19, 20, &21st off work. Lets make this years BAD AZZ TRUCK EXPOthe biggest, baddest, BEST yet!!!!

 

It has been decided the ground in the mud bog area just will not support a hill & hole bog Sorry!!!! BUT !!!! Good News!! Play Bog WILL happen.
The web site has not been updated yet but we are working on that, amoung other things. We are looking for vendors and sponsors so if you know of a Bussiness that would like to get involved please P.M. WILDTIME the info.
:rock: going to be a play bog also!!!

 

So there !! Have Jim send me booth reg form .

 

I don't think Jim is doing it this year. I think it is Dave (WILDTIME) who is putting it all together.That should make for a great show. :woot: I bet it will be the Biggest one yet to come.

 

bump:woot: for a good weekend

 

We have been working hard to get everything in order for the Expo!!!!! It's coming along fine, and with evryones help will be an awesome Expo. We need you all to spread the word. This is a Friday & Saturday show lets make sure we are all planning on that!!!
Thanks "WildTime" Dave

 

I am undecided how many Rock Crawl participants to plan for !!!! Anyone care to help me out with a guess !!!! Anyone know of any (Rock) groups/clubs that are planning to attend??

 

I think in the past there have been about 25 vehicles participating. About 10 in the under 40" class and 15 in the 40" and over class.

BUT, I certainly hope that you are planning on making some improvements to the course or there may be less. The way the course is now, it has been losing interest. Right now it it pretty much all concrete and there have been problems with rebar sticking out and ripping tires. Plus, since it's a timed event, I believe you should try to make it a little bit easier so that people can actually finish the course under the 10 minute time limit. The last couple of years I have yet to see anybody finish the course within the time limit, and that includes a couple of dedicated rock buggys.
It ends up being quite boring watching everybody make it to the same spot on the course and time out. I would like to see most everybody finish the course within the time limit and actually have competition to see who finishes in the fastest time:thumb: My .02

This has been a great event and I believe you could have a great turnout if you improve the course. There are a lot of people on this site and others that have very capable rigs.

 

the changes you said are already being talked about Yes no rebar for sure this time

 

Great to hear:woot: This whole weekend is a great time for spectators and participants. I'm hoping for a great turnout.

 

How are the dirt drags going to be this year? Last year we were uncertain about running paddle tires, but from the pictures I saw, it looked like it was soft sand/dirt and paddles would have been fine. What day are the drags?

 

the drags are going to be Friday haven't heard about dot approved tires or not yet. Mud bog (comp and play bog) and rock crawl Saturday

 

thanks for the in put thats exactly what I'm looking for. We were just talking about the course needing to be something that MOST could complete. As for rebar, I didn't know that, but now that I do it will be taken care of. I'd love to see a great turn out for ALL of the events. As for the dirt drags sand or no sand DOT Tires this year Same with the Back to Back Truck pull (tug a war) DOT Tires
Keep The Coments Comin Guys Thanks Dave

 

Crap. That counts me out. No way I'm launching at 5K off the brake with Boggers and a D30 in the front ;-)

 

i'm going

 

i went 2 years ago and i loved it i live on the kent and ionia county border and as for input idk about how it is now but 2 years ago there was alot of jackasses doing dumb things and almost hit me and my dad if that can be cracked down on like leave the burn out in the competitions and all the other things so it's safe for people and kids like have afew staff watch for these immature people and if nessesary kick them out and how does one help out with this event

 

period

 

Oh yah we want this show to get bigger and bigger there is already some of us going to be on the look out for dangerous and stupid situations we want a safe and fun show :woot:
