Tin Soldier Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 Well Yesterday was the start of a 1st ever PA meet. It was myself, Trogdor (Xtacy Turbo), and Phathur Kryme (PK). We started off with a little working on the cars then we headed out for some offroading. It was a fine day for it and the weather was nice, but about 9:30pm it started getting dark on a trail I had not been on before. I was driving along and saw some mud just a touch to late and gunned it to try to make it thru. High centered it and stuck good. We broke one Come Along trying to get it out and ended up leaving it there. At about 11pm we left it in the woods and walked out to cell service and called for a ride. We will rescue it today and I will get more video and pix. As always the whole story can be found at 4x4roo.com Thanks for looking -MORE- Went back to rescue the Roo the today. We tryed to take PKs Tracker in to rescue it and ended up getting it stuck too. We had to come along it up out with a broken come along. We got yelled at by the land owners of the gate we took the tracker around to get to the car. Once we got the tracker out we headed back to the ppls hosue to apologize and the guy seemed real nice. We ran to Adavance and bought a new come along and 30ft tow strap. When we got back to the Roo it had been robbed. The stereo and the subwoofer, the amp and the radar dector all gone. Well anyhow after some serious pulling with a come along. We got the Roo out and brought her home. So the damage report from the trip... Tracker: Bent to heck engine mount (big rock on the way out). Few scratches. Lotsa mud on and in it. Roo: Smashed up front bumper. Smashed up rear quarter panel. Lot of scratches all over the sides and wheels. Caved in hood (PK sat on it to give more grip to the front wheels). Serious amount of over heat. Stereo and all stuff that could be easliy removed from the car. Get more pix and video will get uploaded monday when I am back on high speed at 4x4roo.com Direct Link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roundeye Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 As if things weren't bad enough, some POS had to steal stuff out of your car! Do this: Print up flyers with good descriptions of what was stolen. Use as much detail as possible. Makes, models, any unique marks, etc. Post them at every pawn shop and car audio shop in the area. Post the same info in local free classified papers....most of them have free ads. Make those stolen items worthless! If you find out who did it, beat them about the head, neck, chest, back, arm, hand, waist, leg and foot areas with a cinder block. Castrate them with a claw hammer so they won't infect the gene pool. (I FU^%!#G hate theives!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
75subie Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 that is a shame someone had to take your tunes. now its time to upgrade:brow: still is a nice roo.that was some deep mud thank god for come-alongs (when the don`t break) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subeman90 Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 dumb question but did you lock it when you left the woods? Reason I ask is I never walk more than 20 yards from my car without locking it... Oh those dam kids from Franklin I bet.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roundeye Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 dumb question but did you lock it when you left the woods? Reason I ask is I never walk more than 20 yards from my car without locking it... Oh those dam kids from Franklin I bet.... I would not have locked it. Some POS would have just smashed a window to gain entry. If it's in the middle of nowhere, who would hear it? Too bad you didn't catch them in the act you could have...to quote Ice T, "shoot 'em in the mutherf&%#!ng face!" then throw their useless carcass' under the tires for traction. That would have killed 2 birds with one stone: Done the world a favor and gotten you out of a mud hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subeman90 Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 if you have comprehensive I bet they would cover it if it was locked.... unlocked they most likely won't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorganM Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 Sometimes the mud wins What a damn shame about getting looted. What kind of insurance you got? PK needs to get a 6" lift and swampers on that Tracker! They really can throw down offroad. There are more than you would expect running around MN and WI; RPM 4X4 club has atleast four. The bright pink one rules! I saw a security guard parked on base here and had to talk his. Cherry red '91 Geo Tracker, 6" full suspension kit, didnt check the rims, 33"x12.5" swampers, stock engine and drive train. He had just broke apart the carrier housing for the front diff the weekend before offroading in WI Anyway I've rambled on enough here.... offroading rules!

I found one (Sammi) this weekend for $400 said it looked clean and ran good. I didn't buy it because I have no place to put it and can't justify another off-road toy taking up space... If I had my way my house would look like Sanford & Son Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mudduck Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 That looks like it was a blast playin' in that mud. Does suck that your stereo got stolen. I had a bunch of tools stolen last winter when I got stuck and had to leave the car, though they left all my cb radio equiptment that was in there(over $400 worth of cb stuff) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a bunch of tools stolen last winter when I got stuck and had to leave the car, though they left all my cb radio equiptment that was in there(over $400 worth of cb stuff) Much easier using tools. Them thar fancy citizen band radios take brains to hook up! My tools were the only thing I took with me last time I left my Subaru. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
