It's a 1990 Sub with some lift, oversized tires, and traction control devices. The dealer said it will do well off road.

My buddy (Mikeb74blazer) had a great time with His blazer :eek:
Only 33" locked front and rear on Aftershock. He almost made it, the end turned Him around. Krusty led us back out, fun day :D

GJC-- the real problem he had with the Blazer was the fact that with the 454-- it was TOO FRONT HEAVY with only 33"--- wouldn't climb up steps !!!!
but I admired his trying !!!-- no crying when he tore the rear end off and stuffed the front end several times !!!!!

I went back and read the requirments for all of the trails. I meet the minimum requirments for all of the trails!

I'm waiting to see who else from my club is going and what trails they are going to be on before I register. I'd like to have another fullsize on the trail just incase I need to be recovered.

I tried signing up for Clawhammer Yesterday and today but I can't get into my paypal account. I'm trying to reset my password. If I can't get in, can I pay another way? My name is Richard and my rig is called Cliffurd.

See you out there.
