Default Sunbright,TN. rock garden

The last couple weekends I've done some additions/changes to the rocks in my back yard. I still have allot more I want to do yet,just need the time. The spots we have been using for comps are starting to get used up IMHO. I've made a few changes and want to make a allot more. Trying to make more options for each obstacle. Guys that have run here will probably see some of the changes. I've also added a little to the spot we haven't run on much.

Being so busy at work and working on Saturdays ain't leaving much time but I'm trying to build us a REALLY cool spot. Anyway,enough chit chat,heres the pics.....

Section 1.....








Section 2....


















Section 3.....

NO WAY! I like it that way

I'll be working on the area as much as I can until the next comp so hopefully we'll have a good deal more to run on. I'm trying to figure ways to add a few jumps to the mix I wanna set up a section geared a little more towards a rock racing style so if we decide to run one,we got a good spot.

We do Usually 2 or 3 times per season. Granted,our group is smaller than some clubs,it would be enough for a bigger group of guys. The bad part is,we're out in the country. There is litterally NO hotels,fast food or anything within 45 minutes.

I can make this area as big as I want. Honestly,I'd like to build it 3 times what you see here now. I've got ALLOT of rock scattered around,it's just a matter of grabbing them up and building obstacles. It just takes allot of time to do and I've got very little of that at the moment.

If guys are willing to drive up here,they are more than welcome to come up and crawl. Just holler at me and we can set up a good time/day.

I'm still talking with Liberty about those parts. I'll be calling you soon

Our next comp is going to be at the Waterfall off of Northshore drive We'll be running here 1 maybe 2 more times this season. We've got dates already,but need to talk more about locations before thats finalized. We don't have to have a comp here in order to run though. If ya'll wanna get together and crawl for fun,thats cool with me.

I do have a good deal of slick'em on my rocks. I NEED wheel speed. I've done a bit more work to my rock garden the last couple weekends,I'll try to add some update pictures soon.

The Yota,thats my 1:1 toy.

87 Extra cab,new motor,rebuilt trans,dual transfer cases,Twin sticks,5" All Pro leafs,14 1/2" of travel at each wheel,OBA,15 gallon cell,37" Boggers and the jungle gym built by me. Oh,theres also a yellow tree air freshener in there to hide the smell of the poop stain in the drivers seat.

Hasn't seen the trail in a while cause I busted the front shortside inner,stub and u-joint last time out.

I see
My money......I'm just a simple carpenter, who hasn't worked in 2 months waiting on permits to go through.....trade ya what I got in the bank right now for what you got in yours, even if you only got $20, I'm still money ahead
Rock pile has lots of potential for cool lines, and you can rearange it easily enough to change it up I'd crawl it if I lived near ya
