Default Trail Run @ Poinsett State Park

Here's a few pics and vids of a place within 25 mins of Sumter. We're gonna have to set up a date to get a group of us together here. They have primitive camping, hookups for RV's, and cabins. The cabins sleep 6 and have A/C and can be rented for around $65/night!! We could do day and NIGHT runs without a doubt

The trail we walked today was 1.5 miles long and made a loop from the visitors center and back...no back tracking.

These roots made some nice obstacles throughout the trail...

The trail circles a lake/pond and samp type area. This was the crossing at one end...

This hill climb was half way through the trail and was a BLAST sorry it's a little long and doesn't show that much of it...

For sure...just have to convince those upstate boys to come to the low country! Travis said he's down for it!

I really prefer to not have to tear my tires and wheels apart after every trail run to dry/clean them out

Yep...I pulled the star wheels off and put some SLW V1's on it with some blue rings that I had laying here already. You should see my star wheels showing up on another rig soon

That last video made me laugh out loud. I started it up and was thinking "I don't see an RC anywhere" and then woosh, it shoots down the hill in mid roll. That's awesome.

How you going to do this when you won't come to the upstate?

Man I wanted to come to your place this last weekend, but I wasn't able to get away until after 5pm so that just didn't pan out. As far as coming to the upstate...we do that every time we have a comp just about...it's time to bring the SCRCC crew this direction

Cool Vids, but I think your Wraith has more power and wheel speed than your sami

Hill climb looks a lot better in those videos and the wraith is looking killer Ryan. With that massive power plant, I figured you would lay down the skinny pedal and blast up it tho.
