there are some yahoo's here that think desert racing and mud is the thing to do.

That's the kind of uneducated and close-minded bullsh*t attitude that the sport doesn't need. It's along the same lines as having a Calvin pissing on (name your brand vehicle here)sticker on your rig.

Before you get up on your soapbox and preach about stuff that you don't know about, you might want to don the thinking cap and educate yourself on the ways of others in the offroad sport.

You are absolutely no better than anyone else who decides to bounce around the desert on a Saturday afternoon, or the fire breathing big block beast in nose deep mud. Those guys and gals spend the same amount of blood, sweat, tears and $$$$ as you do to enjoy what the type of wheeling they do.

Disrespecting someone and calling them names just because they don't fit your tiny opinion of what hardcore wheeling is all about is a bunch of crap and needs to stop.
 
Re: Pretty 4X4s VS Ugly 4x4\'s

I got all my body work, and paint done for $400 and it was worth every penny. I'm working on bumpers and sliders to help. If you drive a little more carefully, and don't mind a little damage you'll make it out OK. I don't climb 5' rocks either though. But I bet that chromed out truck would be fun as hell to trash!!! Oh ya one more thing, the more losers who buy all those parts only lower the price, and spur on further development. While leaving all the 14FF's, 465's, and 205's for guys like us. So we really should thank them for letting us get our parts cheaper (and prettier). /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
 
Re: Pretty 4X4s VS Ugly 4x4\'s

*****not directed at anyone in particular**********

it seems to me that we have run into a sort of pissing match between the different "wheelers"...we have the sand runners- we have the mud runners- and we have the rock crawlers- now lest we not forget those like me.......the pavement folk......

I've said it once and I'll say it again- if its not yours- dont worry about what is done with it. If I want to spend $7500 bucks on a paint job- who are you to tell me it was a stupid idea.

If you want to hack up your fenders- dent your truck, cover it with trail carnage- you will NEVER hear me tell you your an idiot for doing so...I respect what each one of us builds/buys our rigs for, which is the way it should be.

It goes back to the 1/2vs3/4vs1ton crap. WHO CARES who runs what.........shut up and wheel if thats what you do. Dont get into a pissing contest to see whose better. Whats good for you may be completely off base for me.

***is waiting for someone to tell me that I dont "need" an echobit cage since I dont "wheel" ******

get off your damn high horse- keep your negative comments to yourself, and respect what another person chooses to do. You may not like it.......but they may not like what you do either......

sorry to sound so bitchy- but it's a woman thing, and I CAN!

i knew you would respond like this...typical.

who the **** made you the voice of what this sport needs? i'd *love* to see that piece of parchment.

yahoo's is alot diffent from your favorite name to call people "candyass". I have been called a yahoo for liking the rocks. so fawking what? if you can't deal with me calling a group of people a humerous name in jest, you need to shoot some smack or something.

Furthermore, your ass needs to start read my whole post instead of this "i'll just quote part of it" crap. perhaps you didn't read the whole tread after that when a few of the other rock fans liked that little saying. why don't you talk [censored] to them? oh, sorry, you have a bug up your ass for me and my rock affinity. you really need to let it go, as i am tired of it.

Well, let me pull this out of what you read. And for your information, I read everything you posted before I replied.

Apparently you are not aware of the so-called 'prerunner.' That's ashamed. You should really educate yourself on that aspect of vehicular modifications and the people involved. Might open your eyes.

Furthermore, you might want to resort to the tactic of coming up with some sort of defense for your opinions instead of escaping them by resorting to syntax explanations and insinuating that I resort to illegal and unhealthy habits.

The last time I checked, I have respect for the different facets of wheeling and the people who are involved and do my little part by promoting the sport as a whole in my endeavors instead of spouting off a bunch of half thought-out, uneducated opinions without the forethought of actually coming up with a solid and well thought-out explanation to back up those opinions.

Re: Pretty 4X4s VS Ugly 4x4\'s

I always though there was more to wheelen then just rock crawling too. Like the contest(like the one ramsesy puts on) has sever types mud trials articulation stuff and if there was sand aroud I bet they would do that too.

try reading it again...you'll get it, I have faith in you...pay close attention to the stuff in bold.

[ QUOTE ]
it doesn't bother me. I am of the opinion that if you want a 14" lift for your IFS Chevy with a rear 10B and run 48" michelin's on them, fine...but don't think I am going to say "wow! look at that truck." I'll be saying "wow! look at that mall poser." IMNSHO desert is not "wheeling" its racing. I love racing, we race an RX-7 that most of you know about, but just cuz it is off a paven road, it is not wheeling.

For example: are WRC cars "wheelers"? they are off road, they roll, they crash, they have massive engine, axle, tranny failures...but its racing. just like desert and "rock racing".

so no...ugly trucks rule, and the rule of is that if it doesn't crawl, it belongs at the mall!


[/ QUOTE ]


so explain to me how this is "uneducated" just because in my opinion I call it racing and you call it 'wheeling?

you really need to get over this fetish.... /forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

I don't come out and start this "bubba you are exactly what this sport hates! blah blah blah." you think it is wheeling I think it is racing, get the **** over it. /forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

Since you refuse to do the research yourself, I guess I have to do it for ya.

There is a lot more to desert racing than just racing. Have ya ever heard of a prerunner? Everyone has their own definitions and opinions, but in general it is a part of the desert that you have no idea about. These are they yahoos that you have referred to in the past.

In general, what you are missing are the people, just like you or me, who modify their vehicles for a specific area of expertise. Whereas you spend time and money to prepare and build your truck to tackle rocks bigger than small cars, the prerunner crowd builds their vehicles to go blasting through the desert; to take whoops at speed and to take large bumps with ease. These vehicles are mostly Toyotas and Fords in the 2wd variety, with the occassional Chevy thrown in for good measure.

These trucks do not race, they are just for fun like you do on the rocks, but in a different area.

There are vendors and shops that specialize in this area supplying these wheelers with parts just like ORD and 4x4Iron supply the rockcrawler.

So there you have it, it's not just racing, but a whole world that apparently you are not aware of but with this tidbit of information; I hope you are somewhat awakened to the fact that everything you do is not racing.
 
Re: Pretty 4X4s VS Ugly 4x4\'s

Ok ...
There are people here that like it all..
So what you are saying is that those that like mud and sand are all NON-Wheelers.( in a nice way..BS)..Because I have seen many trucks that are built the same as rock crawlers and For anyone person to say that they aren't TRUE wheelers that is wrong..IMHO
There are differant strokes for different folks /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif But not one way is better then the other /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
I was looking at the first post /forums/images/graemlins/deal.gif before I posted myself and I dont see anywhere that you were Just Joking with folks.. /forums/images/graemlins/rotfl.gif
So there are folks here that would take offense to what was said... /forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif

Because I don't have the same opinion as you i'm uneducated? why don't you reply to the others and tell them how uneducated they are cuz they crawl rocks!? why is it just me? what the hell is your infatuation with me!?!?!?!?

Re: Pretty 4X4s VS Ugly 4x4\'s

I like going places ya just can't get to in a pavement princess. I explore a forest. Got mud and rocks, and lots of tree's. Sure I'm on trails alot, but I've been known to make a few trails myself becouse some hill looks intresting, and I think I can get through the tree's with only knocking down a few small ones. Don't have a desert for high speed running, but do have the plains and the Bad Lands. Only thing is that it all turns to mud if it rains.
 
Re: Pretty 4X4s VS Ugly 4x4\'s

DAMN!!! I have never seen so many people get so mad about what they read on a F'N computer screen, you guys need some damn ritalin! who cares what you do, do it, and enjoy it! I like all aspects of wheeling, but you don't hear me crying because the big guy is talkin about what he thinks desert racing should be called. hell I'm even looking into building a 2wd early 2nd gen chevy just for this, as soon as my rockcrawler is to my liking. Zakk is pretty cool, and I have no problems with him, nor anyone else. but just becuase his word for prerunning is racing and my word for it is fun, doesn't mean I'm gonna cry in his fawkin beer!........damn......this chit is funny /forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

What my problem is someone who rants and raves and disrespects people with some holier than thou attitude. If you need a refresher, read up on "Zakk101, People Who Play in the Desert Are Not Worthy of Being Called Wheelers." You said it, I didn't and I'm calling you on it.

Now I'm sure you were to take a cross section of the wheeling community, polled them on what you said to illicit such a response, I will safely say that a majority will take it the same way.

This is the way I have taken it, another one of your snide remarks (second time I've read this stuff from you) towards people who don't wheel like you do. If I am wrong and you are just joking around and pulling chains, then you might want to let the world in on your game.

Damnit Ican't find my thing, if you have seen the picture of the kid running hte special olympics and it says "Racing a honda is like running in the special olympics, even if you win you're still retarded." I have one thats the same but says "Fighting on the internet is like running in the special olympics, even if you win you're still retarded." No offense bubba but you kind of come out with a holier than you attitude saying thigns like "you are what is wrong wtiht he wheeling community". Not too many posts into my being here you came at me with that. You could explain and say things a lot better than that. And yeah he was slightly disrespectful but everyone is allowed to have their opinions and if someone can't handle that other peoples opinions are different then maybe they need to relearn being a freethinking human.
