anyone on this site ever venture over 2 offroadohio.com???????

they have discussion/post tryin to get some hardcore rigs together 2 rent THE ROCK for the day/weekend. i think this would be bad ass, even for 75-100 dollars. we would save double that in gas form a KY. trip and get 2 play on a ex-pro course.

just putin this info out there in case anybody else thinks the same....besides im not sure i'll ever get opportunity 2 flop on a man made spray crete course

Have you ever seen "The Rock" in person? It's only maybe 50' x 150' if my memory serves me correctly.......point being I'm only 45 minutes away and don't know if I would even bother taking my rig there if it were free. In my opinion even with a full tube rock buggy you would get bored after about an hour or two because you would have tried everything at least twice. I wouldn't even think about taking a non-tube buggy over 75% of the course.

But again that is my opinion, and I will say that I'm not big into rock crawl comps, and I don't have a tube buggy by any means.

You must have one hell of a buggy if you can do all of it in an hour. My main question would be. Will there be an all terrain fork lift there to pick the rigs out of the crevices????

Is that what The Rock is ?? Really?

i was there to watch a compitition several years ago and thought it would be a blast to try. randy torbet was very exciting to watch. it was his first outing with his air actuated transfer case. i think i could burn up a day there easy but i didnt know it even still existed. keep us posted i liked to try

thanks scott

I registered on their forum (yes it was one I hadn't been on before) and tossed out that we could probably have a couple people interested.

Count me in for a trip up there. It is small, so you'd have to think of it like a skate park and look for your own lines instead of just following everyone else.
