Creekside 1-15-11, anyone??

[Firemanray]

There was some talk in thread last week about meeting at Creekside this coming Sat. (15th). Post up on this thread if you can come. With all this rain it should be crazy muddy. (I should have my winch re-cabled by then:D ).

[bigjim350]

[bigjim350]

We usually meet up at 10am at the FlynJ at the corner of Hwy242 and 59. I figure thats what we will do this time, unless somebody else has a better idea.

[OrangeXJ]

Yeah i do, we can all meet up at a steak place and have a good tender ribeye before heading to the trails mmmmmm steak :D If i had the money i'd buy everyone lunch for letting me hang with yall on the trails. Soo do yall pack a lunch? Or go eat lunch then come back? I'm 19 with a huge metabolism so i just wanna make sure i'm prepared. And its $15 a driver and $5 per passenger correct? THANKS!!

I've never brought anything to eat. Never forget my cooler of beer though. You can either bring some food with you, or there is a jack in the box, and sonic pretty close by. As for the price if you cruise up there with us it should only be $15 no matter how many passengers you have.

[default83]

there is a lot of people going up there this weekend that i know, i might have to try out the new mud tires.:thumbsup:

let me see how fast i can get some shims worked up for my rear control arms and i might be out there.

[XJ4IV]

those dang TJ's lol JK hey chris Hope to see you out there!...

Alrighty, i'd bring beer but i'm only 19 sooo......but my girlfriend is almost 21! :rolleyes:

[Firemanray]

Wow, looks like we might have a good turnout! I really didn't expect all of this. Ya'll come on, it'll be fun!!

[bigjim350]

Well since we seem to have a good size crowd going, I have a little idea. Actually its more of a challenge. Now if your going it is NOT mandatory that you accept this challenge. My challenge is who ever gets stuck first has to wear these on your fender for a month. http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/wcsstore/CVWEB/staticproductimage//N3057/full/6190025_pil_cz254_pri_detl.jpg
Now this doesn't count if your the only one that tries the spot, this is for the holes that most make it through. Like I said its just an idea. I have a set of these that I have been saving for just the right crowd.
BTW, yes those are stick on portholes

[Firemanray]

That is what I'm looking for. Matt said they wouldn't be street worthy. I'd be REAL interested though.

i ran them on the street there just noisy but he does have a set of good mud tires but thats between you and him lol

[Firemanray]

[XJ4IV]

Im IN for the lil fender badges LOL BUT I must warn ALL of you ... I dont have my tsl's on anymore! I have maxxis mudders that are about as old as my jeep LOL but still have decent tread left on em considering the DRY ROT CRACKS added more traction LOL

[OrangeXJ]

they probably won't stick to my paint :rotfl2:

[XJ Rat]

This was a popular OEM option in the 1950's. I remember seeing an advertisement for Oldsmobile Rocket 88. It said, " Next year, all cars will have vents in the sides."

Now there are groups of people who like to stick them on :cool:. I agree with Scott, ewwww.

[default83]

they are street worthy, im running them now, they are a little loud but not that bad.

they handle better then my old cheap tires.

did the pic not show up first when I did it? thats the first time I used the pic thing in the toolbar... I used to save pics to my photobucket lol

The site has "no hot-linking" turned on. So you see the picture because it's in your computer's cache when you post it here. But what we see is what ever image that site wants us to see.

Basically you save the picture to your hard drive, then upload it to a hosted site. Then put that link in. When you hot-link an image the picture is downloaded from that site, not this one. Great for xjtalk, bad for them. Basically their picture is being shown using their bandwidth and they don't get to display their content like ads, story etc... They may not want the picture used as per copyright issues, but more than likely they just don't want you stealing their bandwidth.

Personally I say **** um! :smiley-laughing021:

[Firemanray]

Hopefully I won't have to suffer the embarassment. Matt is supposed to be hooking me up with some real mud tires today. Look out Rene here I come!!!

[Metlic53]

These things.
http://www.carid.com/images/port-holes/port-holes-oval-4.jpg


I guess i have seen those maybe once or twice, kinda goofy lookin

[Firemanray]

Kudos to Matt. He hooked me up with some BFG 33's (mud tread). There mounted and ready to dig.

[Metlic53]

10 A.M. FLYnJ correct????

[bigjim350]

Well I guess the challenge is off. I cant find the portholes I had, and can't find anybody that sells them still. Oh well. Course I think Rene stole the ones I had so he could put them on his Jeep

[bigjim350]

10 A.M. FLYnJ correct????

Correct :thumbsup:

[XJ4IV]

PEP BOYS my friend... they are your ghetto parts supplier! furry dice crown air fresheners dice valve stem covers tail pipes that light up a neon lit shifter knob diamond plate sticker for your gas door... the list goes on
