Nevada Backroaders

Win a Weekend for Your Club on a Private OHV Ranch near Reno, NV





Off Road Innovations (ORI, Reno) and Hammerking Productions Announce the 2010 Best Prepared Rig Contest

at the Ultra4 Stampede in Reno, NV, Sept. 7-12, 2010.



FREE Application due August 10th by 5pm.



Five (5) 4x4 clubs will get to compete for a chance to be the ONE selected club to get a full, PRIVATE weekend of awesome rock-crawling, camping, and trail-riding fun for the whole club, right outside Reno, NV. On Friday night of the Ultra4 Stampede, the five finalist clubs will present their BEST PREPARED/SETUP rig to the crowd of cheering fans for a most unusual contest of preparation and preparedness!



“This is not a rock crawl or obstacle course,” says Don Gilman of Off Road Innovations (ORI, Reno), the premier sponsor of the contest, “but rather a challenge to see how well setup and prepared your BEST rig is in your club.” Each club that fills out an application will get a shot at being one of the 5 finalists who compete LIVE in front of the Ultra4 audience, with noted landuse activist and off-roader, Del Albright as the emcee and a panel of judges.



It’s FREE; It’s simple; and it’s an amazing chance to win an awesome weekend of wheeling and camping for your club! Just pick one rig from your club to submit and set it up with a crew of up to four to “staff” it. It’s all for fun.



The drawing for the five finalists clubs will be held in Reno on Wednesday August 11th, at the premier of the “King of the Hammers - Anarchy” film at the Grand Sierra Resort.



The contest will be live from 7pm to 8pm on Friday night, September 10th at the Grand Sierra Resort and Casino. Each rig/car/4x4 entered can have up to but not more than 4 seats and 4 passengers. Only one rig per club may be entered. All passengers may help with the contest. Without unveiling the fun of this contest, just realize that it is about preparation, setup, inventory, and readiness for about any situation on the trail or in rock crawling.



The contest is FREE to enter and applications are due by 5pm August 10th. Fill out your form at the Off Road Innovations (ORI) store in Reno, NV or online at http://www.orireno.com and click on the Ultra4 logo to download the form.

Re-located from my beloved Mojave to Texas. Where did all the mountains go???

Going to be lots of fun.

Larisa and I will be there.
Not sure if we will have the jeep though.

If we do not, it will help someone else win, as we have a well setup Jeep!

This was a fun event.
Basically a treasure hunt in your jeep for items that Del called out.
Thinks like chap stick, panty hose, jack, brake fluid, granola bar, air down devices, and a whole list of others.

We represented Friends of the Rubicon.
I am pretty sure that Reno 4x4 won though.

This could also be done at a club party.

One down side to the event, was only one team got points for each item called out, so you had team members running to your judge with the item. One individual took a hard fall and lost some skin.
I have seen it done with a list, and the judge walked up to the vehicle and asked for each item. If you had it, you got the points.
There was one or two items on the bottom of the list for tie breakers.
You could even award points for how well the item works to get you off the trail.
