confirmed for me... and I'm bringing at least my dad and maybe my brother...
Trying to make them catch the bug! (Then maybe I won't have to take so much flak for my mods!!!)
Slim, you got new tube doors yet??
Isn't this just the spring fling? same cost and whatnot?
GSE is being held in conjunction with Spring Fling at bigdogs like it is every year. So no it's not just spring fling. But yes, the cost to wheel and camp are the same. Anyone looking to pre-register can just sign up on bigdogsoffroad.com for the spring fling event. We will line up seperately from the rest of the rigs in attendance. We're trying to get all the grands to camp together as well. Not 100% sure on that as of now.
Bigdogs only runs 4 times a year. GSE can piggy back on any of the events we choose. We've always chosen to have GSE in June, except for one year which was in Sept.
I'm coming!
what trails? pennsyltucky,bunny,corum,insanity?
I want to test the legs of the zj if I go. not end up doing what we did on that last group of grands, preppie, and run those trails where zjs on 31s were following us on 35's.
Don't know exactly what we're going to run yet. All depends on who is what group and who shows up. Depending on how the rigs are built and the drivers abilities in that group, then we'll make a final decision.
But if you line up with guys w/ 31's, and you're on 40's, than that's your choice and you'll have to run what they do. But again that's your choice. Just b/c you have a grand doesn't mean you have to run with the grands at GSE. You're more than welcome to line up with other groups at spring fling. And we've never had a grand run through insanity, the bottom hole of bunny, or p-tucky. I think we'll get there if grands keep getting built the way they are now and we can get a good enough group together. But corum, v-trail and ET are for sure on the list of trails I'd like to run.
The group you're talking about a couple years was about the worst run I've been on up there. We encountered about every possible problem we could have. And most of them we just stupid problems like burped tires, popped beads, broken drum spring (still can't get passed that one), shafts etc. We hardly got any trail time but had tons of problems. I hope we never have a run like that again. So that's not the norm.
I would make decisions based on when I get there for sure. But I plan on hitting that same bottom hole as what pat did at bunny. Looks fun
Yep, I'll be there.
...and my brother is coming with me. Fist time, he's been to GSE since 2000 I think. Unfortunately though, I think his ZJ is still not running but maybe this will put a fire under him.
Ring & pinion and hopefully beefier shafts should be going in this week. So I'm a yes right now.
don't worry max i'll line up with you on my 36's and play a little follow the leader. usally i run one day with the grands and the next with my club that runs all the harder stuff.
updates?
I am about 99% sure I am coming.
I would love to camp with all the MC crew. I don't know If I will wheel the entire time with the grands though, we shall see.
i'll be at camp 6
I'm waiting to hear back from John Hunt now. I sent in the pre-orders for shirts this morning. I'll be on the horn with him tomorrow and will be discussing not only shirts but camping area as well. GSE used to camp together but its been years so I'm attempting to get it all together again. We'll see.
Well, like always. Relying on other people doesn't work. This is just one more time I have to back out. Pat's girlfriend's graduation is that saturday, so he can't go. So I am truckless to tow with.
I guess I will hit up crozet that sunday or something... sorry guys. I wish I could be there

I'll be there, but I don't have a Grand. Maybe I'll stop by the MC camp at some point. I'll be in the PBR buggy riding with thw WNYO crew.
Jared, fair warning- Things escalate quickly on Saturday and Sunday so bring tools if you end up in our group. You bringing a spotter or riding solo?
Yeah I planned on bringing tools and whatever spare parts I have. I'm still undecided what trails I'm going to run. I think a lot will hinge on how Friday turns out. I won't have a spotter
Your spotter will be who ever is in front/behind you!
I popped a radiator last trip about 10 mins after it came off the trailer. Rad wasn't that old so I have no clue as to why it blew. But it opened up from top to bottom, 1.5" wide! Bitch exploded. I've got a new rad in, new rad cap, new thermostat and now a new sending unit. Doesn't seem to be running right and I can't any engine temp in the cab either. I grounded out the sending unit so I know the wiring/guage is good and the sending unit is new (today) so I can't figure it out. I'll get there!
Seeing that this will be a shake down run for the rig i'm going to take it easy on it fri and run with the grands then if its still in one piece run the harder stuff sat and sat night with my club. Still have a bunch stuff that I need to get finished on the thing. I'm hoping this weekend that ill be able to finish up a good portion of the list.
