We had a great time this past weekend. Lots of new trails at Willow Hill Farm, just down the road at T&T motorsports and a short jaunt further at Esmont. Trails have more than double. The common complaint last year was the lack of trails and, certainly, challenging trails. That can be put to rest. We have some serious off camber and steep runs for those inclined. These will require modified trucks with winches. I suspect we'll see a couple of rollovers if someone gets reckless. There will be a 'Tough Truck Challenge" worthy of the name.

No pics of the "challenging" trails?

They're coming. Another thread was started for that purpose. I know you wouldn't want to miss a chance at taking a dig a everyone else's hard work. Thank you for continuing support, Dan. It's always good for a laugh.

I know. It's always fun to laugh at you people. It's like watching the monkeys at the zoo.

Gang,
I am available to be on site Thursday morning and assist with event set up and/or final trail work, RTV, etc. Please let me know if there is a formal plan in place, or if there is anything I may do to help.
Forge On,
Bob

Bob, I think RoversNorth is running the RTV, but not sure when they are coming to set up. They will appreciate the help, and I will be there Thursday AM at some point doing more trail signage stuff.

Thank you Chuck - I shall plan to join you early on Thursday and help in whatever way is most useful. I have helped RN with the RTV many times in the past - I am glad the event will be held. For whatever it's worth - the 10 day weather forecast calls for blue skies on Thursday with a high of 78 and low of 56. Too good to be true?
Forge On,
Bob

Cool! I am working toward getting there Thursday afternoon and like Bob ready to help wherever. Glad to see the RTV and RN will be there. It is a great competition.
