ridenby (black), KJ_WHEELER_2010 (silver), and myself (renegade) arrived to an extremely windy and cloudy Dirty Turtle Off Road Park today in Bedford, KY. I was really impressed what the KJ can actually do with all terrains and a lift. Even more impressed with ridenby could do with a locker and super swapers. I'm sure those two guys will throw up some pics later this week.

I have only gone to Haspin once and that was basically doing donuts in a mud pit so I was shakyy when I first arrived this morning. However, ridenby instilled confidence in me with his tremendous knowledge and experience in wheeling. At first I was too nervous to do much of anything but he developed my trust in the Liberty and my driving ability. He said "you got this" and so I went for it (most of it). I was on three wheels at one point. KJ_WHEELER_2010 was also a tremedous help in showing me how things were done. I mean, he does have the best looking front bumper in the business.

Here are the photos that I took:

KJ_WHEELER_2010 starting off with a 80ish degree hill. He's crazy.

They worked waaaay better than I thought they would. Ridenby advised I air to about 20psi and they worked wonders. I didnt think they would be much use off road but they didn't let me down once. Even handle mud better than expected. I'll deff be buying another set down the road.... :JEEPIN:

Yeah no regrets buying this tire so far. At first i wished I had got more of a mud tire. Now that I've used these things hard I like em for what they are.
