Fall 2011 Rausch Creek MV Rally

Wildchild467 · Oct 6, 2011

Powerhouse- The leg is doing great, thanks for asking. It's a lot better than I thought it would be around this time. It's still sore if I step on it wrong on uneven ground, but I just take my time and try not to over do things. I should be fine for the rally.

Does anybody know somebody selling a towbar? I might be in the market for one but not sure who has one for a decent price. I do t NEED one but for the right price I would pick one up. Just posting this incase somebody had one and could bring it to the rally. Throw me a PM or postnit on here... Thanks!

Tom, I don't have a towbar, but I may have some pins, and I know I have feet, but they are 3/4" feet for the CUCV series and the M37. Won't work with the deuce.

Bump... less then 2 weeks!!

Man I wish I could make this outing. I signed up to go with the girlfriend somewhere that weekend. I hope there is a spring run there. I'm only 3 hours drive away!

maddawg308 · Oct 12, 2011

There is another run in early April. Hope to see you then,

As an FYI not an ad, there is a deuce for sale right up the road from Rausch Creek. The property owner is selling an m-35a2 asking $2000. It could use paint. It is at 978 gap street, valley view, pa

another bump! 1 week away... my plan is to get down there thursday night... probably will be a little later, like midnight maybe. think im going to stop on the way down and have dinner with an old friend, but thats still up in the air. who knows, maybe ill be down friday morning :razz:

I really want to make this trip, but I'd prefer to convoy with someone with some experience just in case. Is there anyone coming down from the Binghamton / NEPA area? I'll be leaving from 18439, but I'd be happy to catch up with anyone coming anywhere near that area. If your route takes you down 81 from NY or even around Scranton please PM me. My schedule is very flexible. I'll just feel safer traveling with company.

Thanks

Mikey

My route does take me down 84 and 81 but I won't be heading down till late Friday probably, and I won't be in a vehicle that can tow you. I will be bringing a decent tool collection and know my way around a deuce/5ton decently well at this point though if you end up needing help.

powerhouseduece · Oct 15, 2011

I'm here now, we tore up some trails today. I'm heading back tomorrow but I have some wicked ideas for trails, if your man enough to fallow. I got stuff figured out that would make a grown man cry

kastein · Oct 15, 2011

I will be there in my Comanche, not the 5 ton. I was hoping I'd manage to fix it in time but I simply have too much going on.

Thanks for doing the recon! I'm game for any trails but I don't want to go in any deep mud... My knuckle boots are ripped (cheap zipper boots). I'm really excited about going down there and riding the trails! You going to bring more of those sour gummy worms like last year? Pick up an extra bag if you want and I'll throw ya some money... I ate quite a bit of them last year! Haha!

maddawg308 · Oct 16, 2011

Will be in the civvy truck again, the deuce in currently listed on eBay so the high bidder will be driving it away next week sometime. Anyways, I'll be needing a passenger seat to plop my ass in again.

powerhouseduece · Oct 16, 2011

We are going to need to break off into 2 groups. I have some real sadistic trails piped out that are not for the faint of heart. Or those without power steering

Wildchild467 · Oct 16, 2011

Don't hate the Armstrong steering! I was working some today doing some small things done on my deuce and M105A2 ready for the trip. The list is getting smaller and I'm getting more things ready and my to-do list is getting slim!

maddawg308 · Oct 16, 2011

I'd like to ride with PWD's group - I've been on all the big trails there, love to see what the tighter trails have in store....

powerhouseduece · Oct 16, 2011

If my dad and the old lady don't come, you can ride with me Mike. Just pack extra shorts

Jim (R-Racing) dropped off the LB20 so I can tow my 818 up there. As you know, I will tear stuff up, I'm going all out this time.

mikey · Oct 16, 2011

Unless something urgent comes up, I'm in.

Arriving on 10/21 (tentatively), M35A2 1 person camping.

powerhouseduece · Oct 16, 2011

Good to hear Mikey, how's that tow bar treating you?

Haven't had to use it yet, but you two will be reunited for the weekend! I'll be bringing it with me just in case.

Looking forward to drinking some cold ones with you, but I think I'll take the sissy trails this time.
