Hell Yea

Can't WAIT 

[miassmaro98]

hmm lets see if i can make it

[ATVSGONEWILD]

I just updated the details (General Info. and Rules sections) with specifics relating to trucks and buggies at the event.  Basically there will be separate riding areas for ATVS and Trucks/Buggies.  You can park your vehicle around the perimeter of any given area for viewing, but cannot ride in the area unless the vehicle you are on is allowed in that given area.  This is done for safety reasons.

Do you have to register for the competitions ahead of time or can you register when you get there ?  Will they be held everyday or just one of the days ? 

[billabongcr]

MudMan, was i talkin to you last time when mudfest was still on about meetin up and followin eachother down there since you were passin by deland anyways? or was that someone else?

[ATVSGONEWILD]

Do you have to register for the competitions ahead of time or can you register when you get there ?  Will they be held everyday or just one of the days ? 

The competitions will all be held Saturday (starting around 11am or so) and you will be able to register at the event starting on Saturday morning up until a few minutes before the event (I will be updating the Competition Schedule section on our site shortly).  I will also be posting a registration sheet on our website that can be filled out ahead of time.  Everyone will receive a map and agenda at the gate which will list the locations and times for the competitions.  Remember, helmets are required for the competitions.

Thanks

So thats awesome, we don't have to pre register!

I'll be competing with the 700.  Is there an open/reg class? or just a 500 and up class?

ya that was me....you want to meet up and just go there instead of mudfest ? Mudfest is too expensive now in my opinion and this event sounds fun, plus its thursday-sunday.  I know exactly where its at so maybe we can get a caravan or whatnot.  Let me know.

[MudMan]

nice...i dont have to compete against the big bore utes.

There are 2 classes
1) 500 and under
2) everything else

Hey, its on our website, but if anyone knows Vendors who would be interested in a spot on Vendor row, please have them contact us.  Just trying to make sure we have enough food and refreshment options on site.  Any other ATV related vendors are also welcome of course.  I would guess that whoever was planning on vending at Mudfest may want to reconsider for 2 reasons:

1) There aren't going to be nearly as many people there as in the past.
2) The people that do attend are less likely to want to spend any additional money at the event since they already paid so much to get in.

Thanks again for your continued support

LMAO...you are just milking the fact that mudfest raised its prices.  And rubbing it in every chance you get.  I love it. 

The thing is alot of these mudfest-type events in and around the Okeechobee area are very similar because they are basically just cow pastures turned into mudding areas.  You will have some people who are drawn to the excessively large crowds that mudfest draws (or atleast did in the past) and you will have some people who enjoy the average size like at L-CROSS.  I think what yall offer is different though because your actually having races and events which is nice.  I'm not sure if I'll be a big fan of the separate areas for trucks and ATVs because I like taking my bike in the big ruts that the trucks make. I can understand it from a safety point of view but sometimes its hard looking at a mudpit and not being allowed in it LOL.  I enjoy L-CROSS alot and I also thought Muddigras was very well run.  Hopefully yall can put on a good event. 

Any reason yall chose Plant Bamboo ??  Any ideas for any future events ??

[jrpro130]

can't wait!!!

I know I probably won't win...bc there are some big bikes...but i can hold my own.  If all else fails I'll wheelie the entire bog

Sounds like someone needs to take a self confidence course.  I don't think he likes himself enough.

[crom A zone]
