Ope! Oh well, plenty of weekends to come. I've got until about June before deploying so I'd like to maximize my time crawling before I go! Anyone else interested let me know, now or later.

I'm definetly down for some UFC nights!! My TV is only a 50" and i don't have my surround sound hooked up still but i am always down for BWW!!!

Has anyone see the Yellow TJ around town (I think it's a TJ i could be wrong, didn't get a good look at it) with "Tonka" written in black on the sides of the hood? The thing looked bad ass, big wide tires sticking way out on it.

So has anyone thought anymore about the club thing, keep it simple and call it Abilene Jeepers? (I personally would like to keep it open to all Jeeps, not just JK's) Like I've said before, I'll be pretty busy for the next few months, but I should be open every weekend. I know weekends are tough for some of you guys but maybe we can do our first meet at Buffalo Wild Wings for the next UFC fight?? I'm looking forward to seeing Big foot get crushed by Cain!

How'd you like that broken toe, Jones got lucky he ended it in the first round or it would of been all over for him! I don't like that new ref they had out there, some of his calls were real bad!!

San Angelo is promising there are miles of trailers I only scratched the surface. I saw one small water crossing a lot of descents and climbs the area is dry no mud unless there is a recent rain and it only took just a little more than an hour to get there

FYI I called on Katemcy and they are only open on weekends that have events scheduled. There are open events in the next few weeks, however.

I'm scared of that place. If you pull up their website it shows rigs all crashed and on their side.

That's only the level 4 and 5s. Everything else is "safe"!

Wish I could make it but even if I could my rig is no where near ready for that place. Speaking of which any one good with welding I got a welder I just need to build some sliders and possibly a bumper in the most near future
