Royal Blue at the Jellico exit in KY (Bob Heath has been there)

Superlift Park in Arkansas somewhere

the rti ramp will be at the campground so we will use it after the park closes to get the scores and such at least that is the plan for now so we dont cut into wheeling time in the park. if you would like to help measure/score or just keep some sort of order that would be great

[truk]

thats works for me ,let me know what you need and ill help.

At Zookimelt...and/or in the campground?

At Zookimelt...and/or in the campground?

Yes, at ZookiMelt and the area for these classes has yet to be finalized but here is the plan for now... to conduct the classes in the back area of the campground but if we need to have demonstrations then we might have to have it in the park. I am awaiting reply back from the ZookiMelt coordinator.

Thanks,
Jeff

we are putting on instructional classes :confused: hmmm.

[Flxratd]

[94Dodge Truggy]

You're always in the vehicle being extracted....different class

[Green Zuggy]

we are putting on instructional classes hmmm.

It's a zook thing, you wouldn't understand! (Probably because you don't care!)

Seriously, the individual that was originally going to do this at the 'Melt is unable to attend due to a conflict with work so I was asked if we, C.O.R.E., would be willing to do this. Discussing this with Scott A. we thought this might be an opportunity to help some newbies and possibly recruit some more members for the club.

If the club is not interested in doing this please let me know so I can inform the ZookiMelt coordinator that we will not be able to help with this venture.

Furthermore, this is something that was suggested we do for our new club members on a Saturday at Scott A's shop or something like that. We figured we could put my zook on the gravel and watch the air liberate itself from my tires and then show newbies how to properly inflate tires and such. ;)

Thanks,
Jeff

If you guys (whoever you are) are willing to donate the time and effort to do this, I think it's a great idea and good for the club. If you need someone to demonstrate proper approach and line selection for the more difficult Macy's run; let me know.

Only if you use your Suzuki X-90! :)
