    Hmmmm....guess I should get to reserving a room.
    ditto here!! Awww nothing like the fam and the stoop and story telling!

    VXjunky, you might need to be a little more specific than that. There's a bunch of videos, of a bunch of trails, with a bunch of Jeeps flipping over.

    I think that may have been the Hell's Gate obstacle on the Hell's Revenge trail. The picture in Billy's (triathlete) signature line is him heading up Hell's Gate.

    yup, the video your referring to is on hells revenge, specifically the hells gate obstacle.

    Hells revenge would be pretty intimidating for any newbies... although ill be happy to lead it any wed-sun for anyone who is interested.

    This is a great little video from ZuZoo...at 2:56 you get a glimpse of me coming up Hells Gate.

    And here is another just to get everyone exited...this one starts with Grandpa Bob coming up it!

    And just in case that wasn't enough here is some more!

    ill join you for that one billy. i did it last year with jo, but skipped a large obsatacle or two because we only had 2 vehicles and limited tools/parts.

    (plus i had to drive home the next day and jo had already snapped his rear shock in 2)

    Billy, Jack, I am so down for Metal Masher since I broke last time I was on it. It was my first time out with my green Jeep and I tried to scale a wall with an undercut. Found out the rear springs are way too stiff and that a 1310 u-joint is way too small for a D60 and 37"s. After a few attempts the last one stretched the rear axle yoke straps out. I fixed it best I could but broke a newly weakened strap trying the next wall so had to turn around. Redemption! Although I probably won't attempt Widowmaker more than once

    ya, jo and i both got a little ways up rock chucker. then Jo tried widowmaker, but we found his broken shock half way up and stopped him.

    i'd like to try both in the runner, i dunno if its possible without getting my rear bumper changed though. (my *** drags on everything)
