Jeep SWAG Run 2010, Feb. 20th

JeepSWAG is putting together a SWAG run. The run is in the Mormon Rocks area which is close to the Cajon Pass and the Cleghorn Ridge Trail.

This run is a little different than most, with scheduled activities throughout the day and lots of SWAG.

1. Poker Run
The first run is a two card Poker Run. The Poker Run is sure to test your GPS skills. One card will be picked up at what is known to be the best Train Spotting area in the U.S. The other is a secret tunnel run that leads to a really strange compound of sorts. The Poker Run winner will receive an extra entry for drawings. After the Poker Run we are meeting in the Mormon Rocks area. We have found a spot that has a small Sand Dune to “play” on. The star attraction is a short trail that we have dubbed “Train Hammer”. Train Hammer is a fairly advanced short trail with two venerable obstacles. This advanced area will be limited to rigs with 35”+ tires and lockers. Ride-a-longs for lesser experienced drivers will be offered and we are looking for a limited number of volunteers to give the rides. We hope to offer a taste of advance rock crawling for those who usually would not have such an opportunity.

2. Rock Crawling Guest Speaker

W.E. Rock driver John James, will be attending with his Forumla Toy, just one week after racing in the King Of the Hammers. John will be doing a walk and talk through Train Hammer (the trail is only 350 yards long), shedding some light on what a pro rock crawler looks for on the trail.


3. OffRoad Driver Training
Also in the works is a presentation by a professional 4X4 trainer. The presentation will be a slice of a course topic that the trainer offers and a general overview of all courses that are offered. Topics being considered are, Tread Lightly, Hi-Lift jack safety and a winching demonstration including how to winch in reverse.
4. SWAG aka Giveaways
The day will end with JK-Forum sponsor SWAG. We are contacting many JK-Forum sponsors and asking if they want to provide SWAG type give-aways, for a drawing. And of course, I’ll have plenty of my infamous JK Hood Hold Down Kits. You don’t have to be present to win. Just check in with us ,at Train Hammer, at some point during the day.
