This is it, the official thread for the Tall Corn Cruiser Classic 2008.

D'Animal · 02-14-08, 09:41 PM

Is there a sign up sheet or information roster?

packman73 · 02-14-08, 09:49 PM

Not yet...we are in the beginning stages of the planning for this years event. Stay tuned to this thread in the coming months!

Blue 60 · 02-15-08, 07:28 AM

Can't wait, I'm itch'in to wheel.

jester_motorsports · 02-15-08, 06:37 PM

Just curious but....why so early this year? The 2nd weekend in September was always nice due to the weather being a bit milder than August weather usually is.

packman73 · 02-16-08, 07:59 AM

We are trying to spread the midwest TLCA events out to get better participation. Now there is a month between the Tall Corn Cruiser Classic and TAC Flat Nasty.

D'Animal · 02-16-08, 08:05 AM

Do you have a location yet? I will be visiting my family and friends around Lee county.

My goal is to drive the FJ45 Extended cab all the way.

packman73 · 02-16-08, 09:00 AM

It's going to be at the same location as last year's event, about 14 miles south of Knoxville, IA on Highway 5.

Google Maps

myyoda · 02-16-08, 12:28 PM

That was our first event last year and we will be back again in '08. Only this time we will stay for both days instead of just the 1.

wadentrisha · 02-20-08, 05:57 AM

August 22nd

I guess I'll have to miss out this year.

CRAW · 02-22-08, 08:26 AM

I'll more than likely make it down there for this. I know it's several months away, but you all camp there, right?

packman73 · 02-22-08, 08:30 AM

Yep, we camp! Tent's and campers....

CRAW · 02-22-08, 12:37 PM

jester_motorsports · 02-23-08, 09:36 AM

If you're talking about conflicts and drawing people away from other events, I guess I should point out that TTORA's Takeover event this year is being held in Harlan, KY on August 8th-10th. Not that it matters since it isn't a TLCA event but it's still a VERY large gathering of Toyotas at an event that happens to be in the midwest. Just thought I'd mention it.

Blue 60 · 02-23-08, 06:25 PM

I think that we all realize that every weekend from april to october has at least one event going on, official or not. There was a thread last year that listed all the events for the year and by the end of the summer every weekend had at least one event. The land cruiser nation is growing.

Dingman · 02-24-08, 06:46 AM

For strictly personal reason's (lack of trailer and I don't like to drive my rig too terribly far), I'm glad to see the event is still at Dan's place.

Craw, sounds like you're not familiar with "MIOBI land" (being a noob and all), you can check out the details, view pics and vids and basically get any info you need about the place here at MIOBI.org - The Make It Or Break It 4-Wheelers

wadentrisha · 02-25-08, 06:07 AM

I'm still trying to pull this one off. My b-day is 2 weeks before that and my wife wants to come back to Iowa. She has something planned that she's excited about but I would rather come to Tall Corn. Still a ways away. I'd really hate to miss my favorite event.

To quote a reply from Waterboy, "You can do it!"

Dingman · 03-05-08, 05:03 AM

I got my front driveshaft lengthed so that I should be able to get up "Oh Shit Hill".

is that down by the creek? I think I walked up that with my 85...maybe not.

this is by knoxville right? I remember seeing your runner there that weekend I had the white and blue 85 pickup.

SAR_Squid79 · 03-06-08, 10:53 PM

I'm going to try to make it for the LAST TIME

...My time in Great Lakes is over, and we're moving back to San Diego September 1st.

I'm going to plan on and really try to make it to Tall Corn, but I am 90% certain that I'm going to TTORA TakeOver in Kentucky, so we'll have to see how it looks as it gets closer with regards to budgeting. I doubt fuel is going to get any cheaper as we get further into the Summer.

How is the weather going to be this year?

You'll be missed Jamie. It has been a pleasure knowing you. Take care and have fun in Cali.

You know Wade - Moab is only like 9 hours from San Diego (as opposed to 26 hours from Chicago), so when ever you Iowa boys get a hair across your butt to go to Moab, I'll see you THERE!

I'm just moving - I ain't dying!
