It was fun and VERY soupy.
Yeah, he got bogged out several times all though the final time was the clutches demise.
There were a couple of videos from the last outing of him getting stuck. Mine turn out horrible on my phone but I'm working on getting an el-cheapo video dash cam in the near future.

The only thing that sucks about that place is the clean up afterwords. I play in a lot of mud up here in Michigan but there is something in that Cliffs mud that stains your clothes, and then everything you touch. I usually just stick a hose inside my jeep to clean it all out, but I'm still scraping mud off the inside of my Jeep from the opener run. I would hate to have to clean that XJ. Did look like a fun time though.

XJ had to get pulled back to the trailer. Believe he smoked the clutch. =/
That thing is a BEAST though and he will try just about anything with it.
Good group of guys to wheel with!

Sounds like fun to watch, I really don't like to go out and purposefully damage my TJ, but to each his own.

I have no idea wut is goin on with this forum but It isn't postin my stuff….last post I was replyin to Dan's quote and thats all it did is repost his quote….Anyway, Dan makes it sound like these guys ar just rammin their rigs into tree's uncaringly….That's not the case, they (like myself) push their rigs, pretty hard sometimes. They take as much pride in their stuff as the next guy, I just don't want anyone to think they are a reckless bunch of guys…

I love my purple homo xj. Aussie locker in the front and a welded rear. That screwer will go through just about anything I put it through!
I take pride in my jeep, it gets hosed off and hand washed every time we get home! I even wax that damn thing!.
We dont purpously go out to screw our poop up, but poop does happen. What do you expect when you are pushing to the limits! And trust me WE do! EVERY one of us! I got a new rim already to. 35 bucks!
I my not be my daily but I drive it the 80 miles there and the 80 home every time. She see's about 300 miles a month!
You guy are alot of fun also. We always have a blast when Don shows us around!
Thanks alot Don for the support! If I cant make it I'll shovel it out with my front bumper!

I wasn't passing judgement on the Rkfd guys. I work and live in the Rkfd area so I thought I may know of, or seen them. Glad you guys had a good time! Grimace is a better name than Barney.

Lol, I don't wax my rig or clean her. I let the rain do it, lol. Even after the mud bogs (Look at my pic), I drive that thing always slopped in mud, even to my aunt's wedding. HAHAHA.
Got myself a 1991 Amigo 5-speed 4x4 lifted with 31 A/T's for 500, though she's STRICTLY a DD. The S10, I've done so much work to her, I don't drive it around unless the Isuzu is down. So I'm keeping the truck street legal for a while, lol.
She is an AWESOME runner at the mud bogs though! I'll be out at Genoa City Days Mud Bog event, hope you guys in the area could make it out! My truck is DEFINITELY unique, if ya saw the recent pics on my Facebook.
I go out to Rockford Every weekend, I should meet up with them sometime. Anyone know how to reach any of the guys?
