Here is the plan... comp will actually start around 3pm and will end when the beer runs out .

We will start with hill climb and time trial then a Singles gated run for the finals course. As long as we are all still having a good time... more events will follow after intermissins (charging sessions). Camping is not required but migth be a good idea. Im unsure if i will be camping or not at this time cause my wife is getting closer to her due date and that is one thing i dont want to miss. I plan on staying till very late with some night running... we may even add another portion of hill climb/time trial/ and gated at night just to make it interesting.

The location:
Daken Road - Located in Western Douglas County just south of Sadalia and West of Castle Rock.. to get there, fastest way... Take I25 to Castle Rock, Exit on the Wolfensberger Exit, Head West till the Road comes to a T (@ 5 miles), Turn South, Travel a couple more miles down, Take a Right on Daken Road. When you get to the top of the dirt hill, hang to the left, then hang to the right (its a 1 way roundabout), this will bring you to the Forest Road entrance of Daken Road. The Comp Spot is about 5-6 miles in and takes about 15-20 min to get to it from this point. Make sure you have at least 1/2 tank just in case. Trucks and 4wheel drive are required! if you are driving a car, post up and we can car pool or meet up with a fellow competitor for a ride.. i have seen cars up at the rock stairs.. and it is not pretty. Now, this is not a "Hardcore" 4x4 trail.. it is a simple dirt road but every year certain spots get dug out and could cause a problem if you were driving a car. Stock trucks will have no problem.. heck, most guys tow trailers up in there all the time. At the rock stairs, ther is allota stuff for rc crawling and even some stuff for 1:1 crawling so bring your jeeps if you like... Cant wait to see everyone there!!!!

for those of you wondering ....

Daken Road =

good thing i posted it early... nothing is set in stone...

if the masses speak, we can move it to another weekend....

I'll be getting stuff built for Montana.

The other issue is Mothers day is on Sunday the 11th! I definately could not camp that night, Momma would be pissed!! We also have Montana the following weekend, Not real sure when would be good? I could be ok for any day except June 14th, my wife is graduating from college that day. I miss that and I will be very lonely and poor, might even have an injury or two!!

I'm not sure what would be best for a date either. I could possibly go, but with Montana the following weekend. Then the weekend after we get back from Montana is the winter series final, with camping involved there. I might not have a wife or a house to come home to if for three weeks in a row I'm not home on the weekend. I should able to make it on the 10th if that is the day everyone wants, but I might not be able to stay over night.

[TwistedXT]

well... how bout we push this back for now, till after montana.. maybe a couple weeks after to alot time to repair breakage and recoop after the trip. this may actually have to be pushed back till.. i hate to say it.. the end of July! end of May and all of June is a no go for me... if i travel more then 2 miles from the house after work hours... she may actually kill me! hang me by my b@!!$ with my winch line from a tall tall tree till im dead, kill me. we could actually make it a weekend event, hold it at the location (forgot the name), just past deckers where the summer series finals were held. make it a scale series / tuff truck challenge. tank trap, towing challenge, tire pit (of sorts) and rig inspect and tech, top speeds, mud pit, Hill climb, time trail, gated event and some trail rides, night events and such.. i bet with some planning, we could make some CRAZY STUFF! Water Proofing may be required! (in a whispering voice - "is there water up there or do we have to bring our own?.. either way.. doable!)

Thoughts - Ideas?

[TwistedXT]

Bueller.. Bueller?.. Fry.... Fry... Fry?

[Rogue]

As much as I would like to do it the 10th, I think pushing it back until after Montana is a better idea. If we have to wait until the little one is born then so be it. I have no problem with having to wait a little bit to finish this series off right!

[Jgoodall]

After Montana would be good. Be nice to do it over a weekend when not as much is going on.

[TwistedXT]
