Southeast VX'rs!

[RamAirZ]

Anyone in the florida/alabama/georgia area that would like to get together this coming saturday for an offroad trip? Mobile Swamp here in Panama City is open and has some fun trails and pits to play in. I will be going as well as a few local friends, would love to get some more Zu's out there

Aw man that'd be cool! I'm in Miami but unfortunately will be goin on a cruise next weekend. But my VX is still stock...not familiar with the swamp there but how are the trails?

[RamAirZ]

The trails there are really fun and aren't too bad. If your ever up this way give me a shout!

It was a great time out there!

Took the Passport out to Mobile Swamp this weekend to play around. My buddy Dustin (he used to have the Ebony Vehicross on 34" Swampers) brought his '93 vw-diesel powered Toyota Tacoma out to break it in!

The main bog area where you can just mess around and get stuck. This pic was taken around 11:30, by 2 there wasn't room to park and trucks and spectators surrouned the bog area plus there were spots along the trail to park and they were filled too.

There are a few spots out there that would have swallowed the Passport, this truck had it's tires completely submerged and water was at his doors:

The vid doesn't show how "rough" the terrain is here but I'm sure you can kinda tell lol. Brandon rode through here with me before so he knows, I ended up riding on my side at the top, crushed my passenger rocker panel in the process, but made it out. My friend Jesse was recording with his phone and ran out of space before I finished:
