LR Charleston WV is having another off road event on Sept 10th, haven't gotten the time or location yet, but I know the last one we had was a blast...

We drove around 10 or more miles of off road (coal mine roads). Had a few nasty spots, and I even got stuck on the scouting trip. It was fun to say the least, I high centered in the same spot that I pulled a RRC out of not 20 minutes prior.

This should be a fun time for the family.

I went last time in the zebra and had a good time. About 80% of the trip was gravel roads with several tricky sections. Overall it was fun but if you go don't expect hardcoretrails or any river fordings.

Dan, the good news is the first or second quarter of next year they (LR charleston) is planning a trip to the Greenbrier resorts off road track, which I have been informed has just had a major overhaul and should be fun.

I'm interested, but not 100% that I will be going. Coming back from alabama that friday/saturday, need to move into house in Dover, DE, also could have pit passes for NASCAR at Dover Downs that day. Any more details on this event?

After scouting last night (that was fun) it looks like we may be going out campbells Creek if we can clear a few trails... I know last night we had a blast, started around 5:30pm and didn't get out of the woods till after 11:00pm. Unfortunatly one spot in particular will not be on the event unless we can get the tree out of the way, if we knew every attendie would be a modified vehicle we could make it, but if a stock vehicle came not only would they not make it, but damage would ensue. And I watched a modified Disco take on a few bumps and lose a small portion of the bumper (not that this is abnormal).

I even hit a spot way to hard going down hill and went from 5mph or so to a dead stop, thank God for seat belts.

I know one thing I need to buy some good off road lights, after it got dark it was a pain with just stock lights.

Hopfully will know more before the event.

It has varied over the last couple of years. So I am not sure... it depends on how many people show up... the amount of rain the day before or day of.

But now it looks like I will not make it... I have to work in Bristol TN this weekend... :(

Aight. So am I the only person going to this? Meeting at the smithcars dealership at 1pm for this ride. I feel the need to offroad because I've been away from my Rover for 6 weeks.
