Great Lakes Xterras

Would like to invite you to:

XTOBERFEST

When: Oct 20-21
Where: Badlands ORP located in Attica, Indiana

What to Expect: Mostly dirt trails and mud. But there are some challenging rock climbs and sand. Basically there is something there for everyone to do.

ALL TRAILS ARE STOCK FRIENDLY BUT ARMOR, SLIDERS, AND BIGGER TIRES ARE RECOMMENDED

FRONT AND REAR RECOVERY POINTS ARE REQUIRED AS Well as Flags

Camping; There is a campground located in front of the Badlands that we stay at. Although there are hotels located in town. The only bad thing is that you might miss out on some of the shinanigans.

Some pics from last year:

There will be a swap meet and a Cook-out on Saturday. As well as a Raffle for prizes.

We will have some excellent prizes up for Raffle!!

Here is the link to the Badlands ORP for any other questions you might have: http://www.badlandsoffroad.com/?do=page&id=2

And a couple videos"

Hey Ron. The trails there that we do are mostly easy to hard green. Some of the hard greens can get sketchy. They just aren't IFS friendly. I got hung up in a very sketchy spot once and was very close to rolling.

And that was considered a green.
Maybe Ryan will be interested on exploring some harder trails?

Not many rocks at badlands. You can have a good bit of fun and push your luck in the quarry.

I'll take people on the TREC track as long as I don't get ran over if I fall!!

Yea. Electricity would be good. Someone should bring some work lights Incase we got to do some night time repairs. That was a pain pulling apart my diff at night using flashlights!! I'm still amazed we didn't loose a single part!

I like the stock rear add on recovery points but a hitch is where it's at! Ive only used mine with a trailer a cple times but it's a great rear recovery and doubles as a rear slider. It saves your rear bumper and exhaust tip from gettin smashed. It does get in the way with your departure angle but I have never gotten hung up and stuck because of it.
