One final K-Rocks trip

[TMatheaus]

Just throwing around the idea of who wants to make a run out to k-rocks before they shut down for good.

What weekend would work best for everyone?

[breckboarder55]

I would really like to make it out there. I just need a couple off weeks heads up first.

[stx4wheeler]

i would like to really do this as well. I vote the second to last or last event out there. the last event will probably have tons of people with it being the last time to ever wheel at k-rocks. My vote more toward memorial day but either i could prolly make happen.

[tigweld]

[Reckless]

[davido]

May be interested in May also. I think Andy is doing Memorial Day there. We had talked about Clayton for Memorial Day. We'll see I guess.

[FJAggie07]

Just got back from K-Rocks this weekend. Damn good time, everyone should make at least one more trip out if they can. They cut down the flopping tree, after one last contest this past weekend...

[J Cooper]

i want to go... summer there is HOT!!!

all rock + no tress = suck

[bcolman]

anyone still interested in a trip out there before it closes? memorial day?

[rockfrawg]

i'm still up in the air whether or not i'll be wheeling memorial day, but the plan in building the Taco was to have it done by then so I could go to Katemcy that weekend. If it does happen, Nix will also be heading to Katemcy with me...

...but like I said, its all still up in the air whether i'll be able to go anywhere at this point.

[Eckert]

depends if i can recoup funds to finish the runna.

[8Runner]

I'd like to go...

[JB]

Memo Day is my goal to have the Bronco ready. If its done, I will go that weekend.

[CheapJeep]

My dad and I are planning on making a run to either Katemcy or the Texas Twister at Trees Ranch on Memorial Weekend.

[bcolman]

if i can find a tow i will be going to katemcy

[Shupe01]

Gonna make this or the last one. Just found out I don't have to work memorial day so its looking good for Memorial day weekend.

[rockfrawg]

Nix and I are gonna try to make it...still trying to figure out towing situation...anyone got a trailer I can borrow...or a spot on the trailer for a Tacoma?

[cj nut]

Im pulling bryan to k-rock, i got the 32ft again. When is everyone heading out?

[bcolman]

i saw a post on pirate about memorial day weekend, entry fee is 100 bones for 3 days of wheeling, camping, one dinner, and a concert one night, also the gates will open friday at 2

cory how about leaving around noon, or maybe a little earlier

[bcolman]

fyi, The Band will be Aron Navaro & Brester Mckracken band for saturday night

[JB]

I'll commit....Jeep or Bronco, I'llbe there. Leaving Friday late afternoon.

[JB]

Any open trailer spots? I fear the Bronco will crap out, need to get Jeep there too.

[JB]

Roll call?

Do we need to sign up or register somewhere? I will be leaving CS 7pm at the latest Friday.

[bcolman]

cory and i are going, not sure when leaving but it will be some time friday after noon, not sure about pre registering, i havent seen anything about it yet

[JB]

Shupe? Austin? DavidO?

Pirate thread says no pre registration. $100 for 3 days, band, BBQ and raffle.

You guys will get there before me, so save some camping spots.

[JB]

crickets?

[bcolman]

ill make sure to save you some room to park and camp

[JB]

So you me and Cory?

[bcolman]

as of now, i know one or two people coming from houston

[JB]

Still leaving CS 2ish?

[bcolman]

i think cory want to get on the road a little bit earlier, but ill let you know when i talk to him later today

[JB]

We're here. I rolled in about 11 last night and the lady told me that there were 187 rigs. The place is packed. Some very badass rigs. Colman cooking eggs. WIll post back up after first breakage.

[Sharpe]

Yall getting rained on? The bottom just fell out in CS.

[colman]

cory called me earlear. he rolled, went over twice, he has a cage but it barely got tweeked, noone hurt. thats the only news that i know

[JB]

Cory did roll it 1.5 times. He is also having issues with getting it in gear, ut the carb seems to be working fine. I broke a front driveshaft, but got the spare on. Brian stripped the steering wheel adapter, broke a front d-shaft and a rear u-joint and had cooling fan issues. Everyone is back together now and ready for tomorrow.

Over 250 rigs so far, the final count will prob be around 300.

THe band is on now. WIll post back up tomorrow.

[JB]

315 rigs, 751 people here.

[DRAGOONRANCH]

[DRAGOONRANCH]

[JB]

Just got back...

[JB]

I broke a front driveshaft, but had a spare. I also lost a bead on Looney Tunes. The PVC insert is MIA. I thought I might have left it in the gashed tire from two year ago, but just checked the backyard and it is not in there. It has to be broken up inside the tire somwhere. Cory lit it up and reseated the bead. The motor ran fine all weekend. The GLO diff covers took a huge beating, as did my tie rod. I am in need of much bigger tires and much stronger shackles. I bent 2 F450 shackles. The front bumper/mini stinger helped alot. Winch got its first real workout too.

Brian broke the front driveshaft twice, the second time for good. He got all kinds of ****ed up on the v notch on waterfall. The tranny lost alot of fluid. The tensioner or idler is making alot of noise and the wiring for the fans is sketchy.

Cory had alot of issues. Carb, trans, driveshaft etc.

We wheeled today with the SchrockWorks guy in his nicely built JK as well as a K5 on Boggers. Faggie you need his bumpers for yours. Very slick looking.

A ton of people out there. Saw Busa for a little bit. It is crazy to see all the money in some of these rigs. This sport has changed so much in 10 years.

[JB]

Get some more pics up

Funny you should mention that, I am picking up a Shrockworks front bumper this weekend for the jeep. They look real nice. I am actually getting a different rear bumper but the deals were too good to pass up. I think they will look nice.

[bcolman]
