been there several times in my crawler also, and have always wanted to take a buggy but they never would allow it accept for at the december toys for tots ride they always have, and then they allowed them in at the king of cable comp they had this past november for some reason, i'm just wandering if this is a permanent rule change or if somebody at caos bumped there head or is talking out of place, because unless something has changed this year they have always been in charge of febuary frenzy? :?

maybe they have seen the light and we can add grey rock as place to ride whenever they have open rides :D

i checked thier website and it says "rail rigs" welcome and on the rules page they have "added" side by sides but it also still says "vehicle must be four wheel drive" :?

"Can't get a good run,Can't get a good run"You are tellin the rock crawlers we must sling shot ourselves over the rough stuff.Which is true. :lol: I don't know if I can call my Panzerwagen a one seater buggy, a rockcrawler or a chaindrive. :)

I have talked to keith and tony both. They both said that CAOS dont own the place, and with them not letting other off roaders in its costing them $. If someone can climb tub rock in a conventional buggy now I would be impressed. It has two huge holes at the bottom of the rock. I couldnt get my back tires 3ft up the rock hitting it hard. The only thing ive noticed about grayrock is the way 4x4 riders treat buggy riders. They dont care about buggys at all. All the time talking crap about how buggys suck(until I pass their ass while stuck on a hill digging huge holes). :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I don't have negatives about buggies, and I know alot others that don't as well.
You must be talking about jeeps, I like them too, they taste like chicken.

hey kevin i wasnt saying caos owned grey rock i knew that tony was the owner but caos is usually in charge or running the show so to speak at most of big events / open rides and they have been raising the prices lately and having fewer people show up according to all my rockcrawling sources/buddies :roll:

and as far as tub rock that gonna be one of them hold my beer and watch this shows :twisted: :lol:
