Yes its still standing untouched. I know it has been used several times for practice sessions since WEROCK ran the nationals there a couple years abck but nothing else has touched it to my knowledge.

it will chew on a set of tires
fairly well.

I bet I walked right by you, there were never many people there. I just wonder how the gunite has held up through the winters ????

I think advertising was a HUGE issue with the amount of people that came along with the lack of shade/bleechers. Most of us only knew about it becuase of werock schedule postings on pirate and other websites.

At one time they wanted to put a modbog in, which I dont care for but would have made alot of sense.

The mudbog would draw the crowd becuase everyone in ohio knows what a mudbog is, then the rock crawl area would have caught the attention of many and theyd come back to see things drive over it.

Pirate was where I found some and talked to Big Rich about e mailing me and I would post it on the local forms. I never got any e mails, they thought that handing out fliers at OSU were enough. That didn't work, I was working up that way at the time and saw the buggies heading up there.:confused:

On top of poor advertisments, I hear rumor that the owner nad werock didnt see eye to eye either.

Same experience here. Since our club is based in Columbus I had e-mailed about the possibility of providing some volunteer labor and such but never heard back.
