Here are a couple teaser shots from Yesterday at Moonlight Racing in Sullivan, MO:



















This place has some serious obstacles. Video coming up in a day or two.

That's a whole different kind of "slick rock" right there. Tough wheelin' in the mud. Can't wait for videos.

Looking forward to seeing the video. Looks like some nasty obstacles. I'm sure the video won't disappoint.

When’s Terry getting a flatly? Hasn’t he caught the bug yet?

Anxiously awaiting the video.

I did not. I had the same problem you did where the Jeep kept sliding left. I tried to compensate by coming at it at an angle and you will see how that turned out in the video. I still think it might be possible on a good day but hard. IDK. This park is tricky. There are lots of v notches on an upward climb. They kinda bait you because they look innocent at first but you can’t see around the corner. Then you get around the corner and the top of the notch is exactly as wide as your Jeep, deeper, uneven, and trees right on the edge that keep you from staying centered . Some of the obstacles here are cone dodger stuff and obviously impossible but lots of it is stuff that is right at the edge of your capability. Typical midwest where it’s easier in the afternoon when things are dryer. One hill called “Tow Strap” is very steep and looks doable but there is a slight rock ledge half way up it. ... can you do it? .... maybe .... you have to commit and failure is unforgiving. Lots of stuff like that both hard and moderate. I think the place is perfect for challenging an open differential vehicle. Lots of stuff that can be done if you are willing to earn it, but doesn’t beat your Jeep to death like the Rubicon.

The video is finished. I’ll upload it this morning. Looks like I’m going to have to go to iPhone 10 if I’m going to keep airdropping with others. The 4K conversion is getting complicated.
