End-O-Year Clayton Trip Dec 16~19

[TxCruzr]

I couldn't wheel that and dent it up but I'm more than willing to watch

[redcagepatrol]

that truck would be COMPLETLY demolished if he took it up there. Clayton is NOT full-size friendly. He WILL get dents is he actually takes it on a trail - I have yet to see a full-size go on a trail out there without getting dents.

COST is free if we stay on the old property or $10?? a day at Frelands (you drop money in a box) - the other new land is probably also $10/day/truck

[Violentv8toy]

well hes not afraid of dents....but he certainly doesn't wanna roll it right out of the box.

[Matt Conlee]

The old property is probably the best place for a truck that size. the old trails seem to be wider than some of the newer ones on Frelands but I bet that rig would be fun to see run 3 stage.

...can't wait to see it work.

I can't wait to see it break either..... er, work either.


[evil]ha ha ha ha[/evil]

Cool truck, but I would recommend he buy a Sami also. He could just leave it in Clayton when he's done. It'll be less than his body shop bill.

[agjohn02]

so, uh, im thinking about going if im done by then. how common is body damage at clayton for oh lets say a mid-sized rig about the size of a scout? and yes, i saw jimmy's door.

[TxCruzr]

How I see it is if you don't want dents and scratches then ride along. People have made it through without any damage but them some have also made it rolling a few times.
Don't worry though, after the first nice dent they start becoming fun

His door was by far the worst body damage of the day. I screwed up my quarter and rear bumper because I inverted a shackle and couldn't turn, then I did the left front fender in when I inverted the same shackle later that day. Then after that, I ripped a front left brake line off, sheared a centerpin on the passenger side, and ripped the exhaust pipe clean off the motor on the driver's side. Needless to say Lurch and I had a slow drive back to camp that night. Would I do it all again? Hell yes! A scout isn't too terribly large for Clayton, it just requires a little more refinement in your driving than what a jeep would.

WHat if you dont have body panels to start with?

i was on a s10 site and saw pics of disney and the pics that were taken were pretty open rock step ups and a lot of like tight deep crevaces and those rocks look way jagged, it was a s10 with fullwidths and 38's with less lift than mine and he seemed to have little body damage other than on the rockers...i dont know

Clayton not= disney. Check Scott's website for photos. Clayton = trees.

Hensel went there a few years ago, and his ranger still probably doesn't drive.

[Mud King]

well damn i was all confoosed, thanks for clarification

[sasquatch]

Maybe I should ride rather than wheel...

[stinger7401]

dont forget about brandons massive rear end, i think that was due to a severe brake falure going up a 50* incline and an incident with a 100' tall pine, from what i remember....hahaha
