6x6 Ride at the 2014 Texas Mud Nationals!

[MaxRules]

Here is a video of the sand pit on Friday afternoon. It was already getting crowded and people were showing off.

Watching these two side by sides driving through the muddy trails at the atv mud nationals shows the short turning radius these machines have when compared to our skid steer machines. Notice how both of them avoided all of the bad mud holes too.

I had a great time at mud nationals,it was everything that I was expecting, and way more! It was nice to put a face with some of the forum members,and made a bunch of new friends.
We could go pretty much anywhere on the park we wanted,and some of the most fun was putting the aatvs to the test, pulling out the side by sides. The first poor soul we pulled out was this kid who got stuck the day before,and it took us the better part of an hour,and I believe we had four argos pulling in tandem to get him out.A lot of these guys who get stuck end up spending the entire night with their ride so it doesn't get vandleized. There should be some great video posted of this.I took a great pic of this kid right after we got him out.His unit was all busted up,nothing that 5 or 6 grand wouldn't fix however.
The only disapointment that I had was that one of my batteries died on my gopro, and I missed a lot of video time.However,maxrules had me covered,as we spent a lot of time in the same argo. He had the ultimate camcorder that was so tiny he had it around his neck,and the batterie lasted forever.










Here is the first of a few video clips:

Man I would loved to be there with my tracked MaxIV, it would have been nice to have a Max in the mix.
I recognize at least four of those six wheelers, one was the former vampire tired Bigfoot of Kathy and her husband, the other a regular Argo that was driven by Mike when I purchased my Argo and was purchased by Kathy and her husband when they saw what a capable machine it was. One was Lee's old 650 Frontier, the same Frontier I battled with the Max in Half the mud holes Georgia, and the other is Lee's 650 Frontier with the 30 horse Generec engine, the same machine that Lee Drove at the Big Nasty,competing against my 650 Frontier HD and the Tracked HD of Mudbug, we had some real battles at Big Nasty. Since Noel was driving that Generec powered machine I am assuming that Noel purchased the best 6x6 I have ever seen, 3.3 transmission and a 30 horse Generec that will not over heat like the Briggs engines and had better control in most situations and gearing so low that Lee never went into low range in some awful mud.

Congratulations Noel, you scored big on that one!!!!

Thanks Mike for this tip.

Did any of you guys watch the atv free style event?

[Mike]

I asked Mike about embedding videos on the forum here instead of just links, but until then here is my video of the endurance challenge.

The short answer right now is that you have to remove the "s" from the URL so that it is "http://ww...." instead of "https://ww...."

Compare the beginning of the video that you shot this year to the video that I shot two years ago in the same place, when the water levels were really low and the mud was almost like concrete mortar

There is a large open erea,20 acre pond I guess you could call it,down the power line a bit,lots of traffic was going there. Also,lots of trails that split off the power line. The traffic in brandons first vid is actually "lite" by comparison. I hope we have some vid of this road about midnight,thousands, and thousands of people going to party at "the pond" Can you say "madhouse","zoo" "organized cayous" etc. Almost everybody has a lightshow on their atv,and tunes cranked as loud as they can,times a few thousand atvs,you get the picture. It was awesome![/QUOTE]

When it gets dark every one heads down to party at the pond. If you're looking for a loud and crazy wild time, head to the pond ! lol
