The dirt is actually smooth as can be. There are little hips that you have to watch out for, but thats what we do before we start messing around. We drive around looking for things that can cause damage and then we drive around them accordingly.

Rocks, There are hardly none, but you do get some here and there.

Yes its a dried up lake bed.


As for the tire screeches, Once you start getting into other peoples tracks that have already dug themselves into the dirt some, you do get a little bit of tire screech. nothing big enough that will cause some damage.

It's all good.

Bad ***, but i could never bring myself to do it in my own car. I like the look of my clean car too much. Maybe if i picked up an 03 Evo, then I could definitely see myself doing this.

Awesome either way, and that one picture is killer.

Yea, I'm not going to lie. At first when i went out there i just wanted to slide around a little bit and not go crazy, but once you see everybody else out there (There were plent of other people.. (SEE PIC BELOW) then it makes you want to go crazy, so i said hell with it and went all out. lol

And thanks, A photographer that was there snapped those 2 action shots of me.

Everybody who went


and there were a few people out playing around and not pictured.

I don't sadly. There was a guy that was Selling DVD's with High-Res shots of all the pictures that he took, but he didnt meet the requirement of ppl to start making them so none of them ever got picked up. So Those are the only pictures that they posted in the thread on SoCalEvo

Umm, Stayed in some donuts too long and let the dust settle around while i was in them. It was windy as hell and everytime i got in and out of the car, well the wind was gusty and dirt was getting in. But i got it the worst out of everybody and how??? I have no idea. LOL

No Complaints though, It was only a couple of hard hours and now it's back to OEM Showroom like.

To be honest with you, I'm not totally sure. It's not hidden at all, and i'm sure alot of people know about it. Alot of 4x4's / ATV quad people go out there and have fun and stuff, so i'm sure alot of people know about it.

It is right next to a public road, and all you do is take the turn and it's right there. People who were driving on the road sure as hell seen us cause it was a big cloud of dirt.

ah im in the area. really considering this but i jsut dont really want to have to buy new tires or a clutch if i do go. I dont really care about the cleaning/ getting dirty because that looks hella fun!

Is there noticable wear on the tires after a rabbit run from what you know of?

In the past 3 Runs that they've held, They havnt been bothered by cops at all. It's not illegal from what i know.

Even if they did show up, They can't really do nothing since it's in the open and out of Danger and causing No Nuisance to anybody.

I think they'd have fun too if they did roll out there. lol
