RicardoJM · 07-28-09, 02:45 PM

On behalf or Rising Sun, I'd like to invite our friends from the south to join us at the Rising Sun Rally on August 8. We've enjoyed your participation over the last few years and are looking forward to seeing you again this year.

For those that can work it into the schedule, we have a couple of runs scheduled for the day after the Rally. Jeff Zepp will be leading a run up Bill Moore and Dan Reinmuth is leading a run on Chinamans Gulch. Just click on the links for more details.

It's just a couple of weeks out, hope to see you all there!!!

I have the table, the shade tent and the banner. I was planning on setting up next to the Rising Sun booth.
For anyone not familiar with the Rally here is a link.
Rising Sun Toyota 4x4 Club

There is a swap meet and some manufacturers present.
THis year it looks as if there will be some demos to watch.

We need volunteers to man the CLC booth. It soesn't mean that you are stuck there all day.

Thanks

What bonehead planned the Blanca trip on the same weekend as the Rising sun rally??????

Oh yeah-- that was me............Do we need to re-schedule the Blanca trip to the weekend after? I personally will not make the Rising sun rally, but maybe some would like to go to both? Something to think about.

Info for the event is here Rising Sun Rally - August 8 - Rising Sun Member Forums

Hi guys My name is Carlos and I'm new in this forum

i have a 95 2.5 lit kit 33 mud tires and lockers, you guys think i can make it at this trail thanks.

PPFJ60 · 08-03-09, 07:38 AM

Carlos,

Welcome! Do you have some sliders?

Tell us what other trails you have ran in Colorado and we can help you compare them to Blanca.

We took a Jeep Rubicon with 31's last year but he did get a little body damage on the rocker panel.

myfirstlx470 · 08-03-09, 09:11 PM

no i dont have sliders :(

myfirstlx470 · 08-03-09, 09:19 PM

well with the lx470 i went to
Zombie fest,Middle St. Vrain & Coney Flat,Sand Dunes near Walden Colorado ,Rollins Pass, Apex & Yankee Hill Road,Bald Mountain = Larimer County,Saxon Road & Cascade Creek, but i sold it and i just got my 95 and im very happy

PPFJ60 · 08-04-09, 09:07 AM

Middle St. Vrain 3-5 rating with a rock crawling rating of 2.
Coney Flats 5-6 rating with a rock crawling rating of 3.
Rollins Pass 1-2 rating with a rock crawling rating of 1.
Yankee Hill rating of 2-3 with a rock crawling rating of 2.
Bald Mountian rating of 4-5 with a rock crawling rating 3.
Cascade Creek rating of 4-5 with a rock crawling rating of 3.

Blanca Peak rating of 7-8 with a rock crawling rating of 5.

I am not one to discourage anyone for running any tail they want to but I would say running Blanca from the trails you listed is skipping a couple of steps in trail ratings.

Someone feel free to add commets but I would say running Blanca with a rig with less than 35's, 33's for shorter wheel based rigs such as FJ40's, and body armor will likely come back with some body damage. Rock sliders and skid plates are highly recommended body armor items.

Isotel · 08-05-09, 03:54 PM

ive never done Blanca, but Sliders are one of the most important things you can get for your LX,

Check out Redline Motorsports - Toyota Land Cruiser & Race Products we have some FJ80 slider Prototypes, let me know if your interested in a set! 331-7516

Isotel · 08-05-09, 04:30 PM

Sliders are Very important mod on the 80, unless you dont care how the body looks like Rey,

Check out Redline Motorsports - Toyota Land Cruiser & Race Products, we have some FZJ80 slider prototypes if your intrested, Give me a call 331-7516

Isotel · 08-07-09, 02:01 AM

alteredvision · 08-07-09, 06:49 AM

I am planning on coming up. I do not know enough about your club and have not joined it but I will do whatever I can to help.

nanuk · 08-07-09, 07:10 AM

We were going to take several Cruisers up to try to sell, but will just make flyers for them probably.
Gonna take an H55F and H151 tranny up.

I will be able to man the booth for a while.

Are we caravaning up or no?

Man Jerk · 08-07-09, 08:31 AM

I'll be there for a while. I'll have my daughter with me so I don't know how long I will stay.

I'd be interested in caravaning.

LCPilot · 08-07-09, 09:27 AM

I was planning on putting up the booth and being the CLC presence to let people know where we were.

I need to bow out to do a Cub Scout camping trip. I didn't think that the camping trip was going to happen.

I have the club banner that I will get to Trevor. Andy has the cards to pass out to interested parties.

Good luck on the Rally.

RLMS · 08-07-09, 09:54 AM

We should just put all the booths together, right next to each other so we can all make sure no future customer is left out!

Justin

alteredvision · 08-07-09, 04:40 PM

Man Jerk and whoever else is gong from the Springs, if you guys want to meet up tomorrow morning I will join in the "Slow Boat to Lakewood", let me know when and where.

Man Jerk · 08-07-09, 10:03 PM

If anyone wants to meet and caravan, lets meet at Mcdonanlds parking lot on North Academy (right by chappel hills mall) leaving by 9am. That should put us right around 10m to the stadium.

My cell is 719-433-4658

Isotel · 08-08-09, 12:51 AM

Justin and i are meeting and heading out at about 7:30 from McDonalds on N Academy
