JULY 24, 25, 26 2009

CAMPING
$7/night reduced form last years $10
At the cliffs up in the park on one of the bluffs over looking the river.
Port-o-pots will be provided.
PRIMITIVE

WHEELING
$30 for the first day. (includes one raffle ticket and all you can eat BBQ on Saturday night.
$10 for any additional days, so will be a cheaper weekend than normal Cliffs rates.
$5 for additional passenger
Friday: Free roam of the park.
Saturday: Drivers meeting at 9am SHARP! Guided trail runs: easy, moderate, and extreme. Free roam.
EASY = stockers welcome.
Moderate = 31” tires. Scratches are a possibility.
Extreme = expect anything! Rolls and massive body damage are possible.
**There will likely be a moderate/extreme group**

NIGHT WHEELING
The truly awesome part of this event is the night runs. The park is completely different at night. The Cliffs is nice enough to allow us to wheel the park at night. The runs MUST be guided by Cliffs approved guides and no alcohol is permitted on the runs, nor are impaired drivers. We hope to have enough rigs to allow for multiple groups of varying difficulty. So get those rock lights installed!

FOOD
Saturday night will be an all you can eat BBQ. The regular stuff.
Saturday Morning will be breakfast at 8am sharp. Don’t know what’s on the menu, but last year was sausage, bacon, eggs, etc… $5.00/person.

MAGAZINE COVERAGE
We are currently working with a couple magazines. More info later.

RAFFLE
More info coming.

Last year was a huge success especially with the new camping site. If you made it out for 2007 and missed 2008, you missed a lot of changes!

added to the calendar....had a great time in 2007, looking forward to this year!

 

[4rnr]

Great!

The event is WAAAAY better now than 2007.

 

[Gumby]

Since that Gumby mofo quit wheeling I suspect that'll improve things significantly.

 

[Goebeler]

I might join in for this trip, that is if I find or see my 40 before then...

Too close to home not to make it, especially if Woody is coming south to play.

 

[Scott_sFZJ80]

'07 was fun and '08 was even better. I am sure that this years event will be even better still.

Looking forward to this years CTJ!

 

[Bsteele]

im in this yr. I was there last year and met a few of the guys but never sat and talked to anyone.. should be a blast..

is anyone going to head down to do any wheeling within the next month or so ???? Ive got the fever.. any other places to go in northern Ill?

 

[4rnr]

A few of us are going to the badlands this weekend. We go to the cliffs often. Im always up for a run.

Keep an eye on the IN and the IL sections of the TLCA forums.

Little Update

So far things are going well, and turn out looks to be very good! Gas prices hurt turn out last year (35 rigs vs 65 rigs in 2007).

NWITaco is working to get a t-shirt designed and printed (screen print I believe). If you are interested PLEASE post up. I need to see if this will be worth while. Right now im thinking 10-15$/shirt.

 

[woody]

XL for me, M for Heather, and a SM for Lexi (or kids size) - down for 3

 

[Goebeler]

Put me down for a few. xl, two mediums, and one small if you make that size.

 

[Scott_sFZJ80]

I'll take 1-medium, 3-small and 1-toddler size if it's offered.

 

[Gumby]

I'll take a couple if they say "sponsored by GingerFab" on them.

 

[4rnr]

ok, sweet. Ill go ahead and have him do it.

As for the design, Im not sure what he has come up with. I told him I would like some breast text on the front and maybe a graghic on the back. He asked me for a couple perticular pictures of my truck and thats the last I heard. So its possible you may have my junk on your back......wait......that sounds......ah whatever.

And gumby, how many damn times do I have to tell you! Im a Day Walker!!! Not a Ginger. Dont be lumping in with those Fawking Marsians!!!

 

[4rnr]

Little update.

Im not sure but it looks like there wont be much of a raffle. Since there are really no sponsers, there are no really big prizes. If there ends up being a swag type raffle with things like t-shirts, mugs, stickers, etc....from the cliffs or anyone else that comes then Ill throw in a few CTJ shirts (provided I can get some made, the guy that was working on it fell through). But right now I have no idea what to expect.

Other than that. Should be a great weekend!!

 

[alstaz]

I need to get this one on my calendar. I had a blast in 07 but missed last year.

 

[Gumby]

Yeah. You gotta make it this year. I hear some guy wants his carb back.

 

[4rnr]

holy crap Al lives? I remember that guy.

 

[alstaz]

Yeah. You gotta make it this year. I hear some guy wants his carb back.

Hmmm, carb...gee I don't remember anything about that.

I'll definitely throw it in the toolbox. I really want to make this one, it has been toooooo long since I have made it out!

 

[4rnr]

Ok, guys I need a QUICK "go" "no go" on the t-shirt design!

Here is what Ive got. The colors will be charcoal, dusk blue, military green, and black. The front will have centered text in white saying something like "Chicago Toyota Jamboree.....2009.....www.chicagotoyotajambo.com.....(maybe information about the Cliffs) Also there will be a tire tread (either Bogger, TSL, or if I can get it Rocker) starting on the front and rolling over the left shoulder onto the and across the back. On the back I will have "CTJ '09" in large letters up high on the shirt across the shoulders. Based on my quote Im thinking $15/shirt. The sizes will be sm, med, L, XL, XXL. Sorry Vicky no go on the jersey/longsleeve, these will all be t-shirts. And the fabric is "heavy" (It feels very high quality!!!)

So lets hear it Yeah or Neah!!! If I dont hear anything I will assume you are fine with it.

Oh and im thinking about a run of 40-50 and if I run out I will take orders and mail them to you.
