I also dislike the indigual times. The idea behind this event was a "team/club" challenge......get 5 rig through a course, as a team, as fast as possible. I lked the event, and don't want to add anymore rules, except for maybe some safety stuff, and crowd control. I would like every rig to have a passenger, and carry a full size cooler... I think that would be fun :thumbsup:

It is a TEAM challenge.... A team has to finish a obstacle no matter how. Great event, can't wait until next year.

I generally think the fewer the rules the better the action will be. I like the passanger and cooler idea though.

Posted By BMFNTOY on 14th Nov 08 at 6:20pm Posted By bigbadjeepster on 14th Nov 08 at 11:36am lame...do what it takes within the time frame! Well then you gotta stick to the time frame..........there seemed to be multiple times where time ran over and a teams progress wasn't stopped or they didn't "time out"........ Thats because we lifted the time rule as long as they were making progress, next year will run smoother and EACH TEAM WILL NEED 5 RIGS! As far as pushing each other thats part of the fun!!! :thumbsup:

I'm probably just a little butt hurt also since I was originally told I could run as the 6th rig for No Limit and that it would be the best of 5 times (under the each rig gets 5 min. rule), then before I got to run I get shit for being the 6th rig because it changed to 20 min. per team so only 5 rigs were allowed to run etc ( I wasn't told this had changed until I was all lined up ready to go on the 1st obstacle)............I would've jumped onto one of the teams that didn't have 5 rigs if that rule had been clearly changed before the start of the activities :jerk you: :thumbsup: :flipoff:

I know how you feel, but I think Rob did a great job of organizing an un-organized event....if there are too many rules, then no one has fun. Next time I am sure the rules will be better layed out ahead of time....this was a learning experience for all involved. Next time: 5 rig per club.....no exceptions Set time limit per obsticle (this was hard this year, cause no one knew how long it would take a group of 5) Party and have fun.....thats what the friendly club challenge is all about.... If you don't have fun, you will be subject to an ass whoppin....also...no exceptions :flipoff:

ALSO .... I knew it was going to take alongtime to run everyone through but more than a few clubs asked me to run everyone's club one after another so everyone could watch...... so thats how it went down, as far as the time goes it evolved as we went, Now if you want more rules and schedules and cones and timers and judges and rescue personel and food vendors then maybe you need to try your luck at Cal-Rocs or W.E. Rock or something..... otherwise join a club or put a club together and get established and we will see you next year at the invitational club challenge........lol :thumbsup:

Posted By jiMMythejerk on 10th Nov 08 at 9:51pm lol, who is nvscouter refering too ?, were there not only 4 pirates and 3 rigs there, yet he slams them rather hard. What part do you mean? I guess the Pirate part. Here is what I said: [/quote] It was fun. I met a few guys I've known on Pirate for a few years but never met face to face. I also towed the Scout out for its first trail run and it did good even w/o a cage. I started hearing a mystery noise so Darren Y and I just went back to watching the foolios wheel. Overall: Rock Zombies and Disfunctional were cool and wheeled pretty decent. No Limit Fab had some sweet rigs that did very very well. Darren talked to them and said they were great guys too. I was elsewhere just watched them wheel. I heard the Hooligans were there but couldn't pick any out. Then the primadona Pirates came out, wheeled like shit overall, had very little respect for the area, people, other groups, thier or others rigs etc. A couple of the competing Pirates were OK the rest were twats. Many of the observing Pirates on the other hand were cool and a bit irritated at thier showings. Unlike Fordyce not that many people were hammered but I guess thats good since all those narrow track rigs got schooled by our little moonrocks . I heard more then a few Pirates say they would not come back and wanted the Con or Fordyce instead. I say good GTFO. I have pics I'll post on pirate later and linky.[/quote] Here is what I mean: The moonrocks are very different then other spots and you guys know. Wider axles, stiffer tires, and knowing your lines are key. All the other groups except the Pirates IMHO watched each other take a line and evaluated it. Some changed it and others didnt. But they were willing to try it out and learn from others. Every Pirate hit Vcrack the same way :jerk you: What about the fool in the Jeep that had his tires so low he threw his bead and then after winching out was pissed and drove with his tire 90% off like an ass. Running over your guy's rig's tow strap (buggy with 666 on it). I moved the strap after that. Also how many spotters should the driver be listening to..one or 6? So if you think I was a bit hard on them then maybe I was since I wasn't running it with you guys. I did have fun and most people were really cool, and the :kranker: was at a much more managable level then usual events. I just thought that the comunity feel was more between the other compeditors then it was with the Pirates. As you can see I've been lurking on your board b4 the event. So hi and nice to meet ya. O yeah dont forget to quote me here to: And Abbazabba was getting a work out getting the Zombie's pics. She was all over.....hope she got some apreciation from the club.

I think that pretty much sums it up..... You are talking about the pirates like there were a lot of them there.....even though there were only four, and three of them were competing.....I think you have some other people mistaken as POR members, and they are not.... I think except for the first obsticle, the pirates did a great job.....hell, the second course they smoked everyone....I wish our second course went that smoothly You are of course entilted to your opinion, I just don't think that you had the guys right.....maybe you were confused on who was with what club;)

Could be with the number of PBB stickers on rigs and such. Also as I aluded to in my rockgods post I wasnt familiar with some of the other clubs. Zombies: You guys have your rigs marked very well so are EZ to spot. Now the Jeep I refered to above had a whole painted POR hood. I am in pic #2 above the rig on the right's DVR front tire. Bleu jeans and a camo jacket. I was BSing with a guy I think is involved with your club that is next to me in a orange + flame beanie. He knew many more of the rigs then I did. The other thing that irritated me was the lack of respect some compeditors showed at the staging to vcrack...holy hell give people some room. I am honestly suprised that more bumper bashing didnt happen. I guess this was due to frustration and the time issues.

just looked at your pics. I met you briefly on Fordyce last summer and was impressed with your rig. I did see your narrow width hurt you this time. What did you think overall of the Moonrocks?
