night run
#1
Lets go on a night run on a saturday night, plan on leaving around 7ish, be home around 2am? I was thinking it would be nice to go someplace near water so hopefully we can see some more wildlife. What about near saghuaro lake area? Most of bartlett is closed and Ive been out to pleasant alot, would like to try someplace new

Im anxious to go back out and try out the new gears. Im ordering tires today and hopefully I can get them put in next Thursday

Out... I will be at flogging molly.

I did a night run a Saguaro a couple years ago. It was decent. We got in past the third cove and drove around in the water and what not. Disturbed some campers as well :| .
I would be interested with the help of alot of coffee to stay awake.

Are you getting tires first?

You know I'm always down for whatever. I'll put Dana's spots on. We gotta find some critters!
#5
yeah tires first then go, mine are so bald i might as well run racing slicks
#6
I wana go too. I'm jones-n to go out on another run.
Not a big deal Chris I worked nights for over 3 years (9pm-7am) and I still dont know what day and time it is.

:roll:

Dont worry Chris, my tires are so bald I spin out trying to go over a curb. I need to get some real soon or I am going to have a tough time this summer on some of our trips.

cant make it this saturday, still need the tires and I have another 350 miles to put on the jeep before the gears finally set

Im open on a friday too, Ill let you know as soon as I have the tires and am good to go

anyone want to go out on friday the 18th for a quick night run? I want to test out how much room I have with the fenders being moved

havent decided where yet
#11
Yes?
#12
I dont see why I wouldnt be able to go. If you wanted to do a day trip we could always go out to the white tanks, its close and a good spot just to play around.
#13
yah suppose to be in the 100+ this weekend some Im guessing the same next, thought it would be good weather for a night trip. Plus Im hoping we can see some more animals
#14
We can still do the night run in the white tanks or did you want to out by bartlett or somewhere else with more wildlife? Did you want to stay close or were you looking to go in the sticks?
#15
dunno, was thinking a lake somewhere, maybe do squeeze rock to bartlett?
#16
You mean FR98 not Squeeze right?
#17
I am sure that is what he ment. You have to give him a brake, it has been so long since he has wheeled all the trips run together. :lol:
#18
hah yah whatever that one is

all the trips seem like one long trail run to me with just gas stops stuck in between
#19
Well, find out where you want to go and lets see if we can put something together.
#20
Its been 3 years since Ive ran FR98.

From waht I remember it should have some good flexy spots to test the suspension along with a few wide open dirt washes that you can play in

I think the whole trail might be kinda long? Didnt we see some easy out spots since one guy got his truck and trailer back in there?

If we want to stay on the west side I was thinking maybe table mesa to pleasant?
