im thinking of going as well, is anyone thining of entering in this????

 

[Chet]

I am entered and I know of three other IRC members that have entered, Andy James, Luke Dayton, Travis Rankin(hmmm all Toyotas, except andy but he still has a toy front end!)

Head from the ferry just like you would to go to sooke. You will see the signs on the side of sooke road and you can see the fairgrounds. Its in Langford.

Jon, Look for us there and come say HI! 9AM ferry should put you there around 12:00 which should be good to see most of the trucks run.

Who brought the marshmellows? LOL Hope he was able to salvage at least part of the Jeep.

I would have loved to be at the event but it didn't exactly get a lot of advertising out. Hopefully the Island crew got out there to watch.

 

[Chet]

there was around 40 rigs at the event. lots of people as well! The weather helped I guess. I missed the burning jeep as it was near the end of the day on sunday so the rest of the weekend went pretty good from what I heard.

 

[Squamch]

It was an awesome event, great time was had by everyone I was there with. We brought three trucks, broke one frame, two driveshafts, and a ring and pinion.
