has anyone ever been to the midwest mudhawgs runs near red bud illinois? it was fun, great officials, I recommend it to anyone that wants to play for next year. They are done for this year... we went sat and had the time of our lives! ended up with 3 2nd places in the 3 classes I ran so not to shabby! It is sorta rough though, or it was this time with all the rain and stuff. I blew my front passenger tire the 1st class, and then another racer let me use one of his to run the 2nd class, and I blew that one too. so we ethered the hell out of them, gave his back, threw mine back on, and away we went. the officials and other racers were very very nice about it, they gave us as much time as it took, and even offered use of their items that we didnt or forgot to bring. It was one hell of a day and we will go back!!! Also we are planning to come to jeremys the 21st, but was wanting to know the quickest way from say Alton Illinois area. If anyone is from around here, let me know so either we can get directions or follow someone up there. And sorry John Deere Mud, we wont be bringing anything, his truck broke, mine is too pretty...hahhaha and the other one aint done yet. My play truck would be an option, but it only has 33s on it and no lift and well no anything really...lol But we will be there so look for us,. If you have something that might be able to pull out an 1969 F600 crew cab 4x4 then maybe we will bring it but we will see... Stephanie
mudmama remember that mud run i said they were stupid and were not going to let us run because we had militarys and 44's that thwe place i would never gp there and would not recommend that place to anyone!!!!!!!!! but i heard you ran some wild runs driving up on the sides of the pit!!!!!!! we had a buddy he found it by mistake and went and watched and said it was ok . he said you should have seen this crazy woman in a pink truck, i told him i know her!!!!!! yeah when rod won the modified he took first which was 60.00 that wasn't even enough to fill my truck to a half a tank of fuel. open paid 45.00 .
oh bring the bad boy i'll get it out or break trying i love playing tow truck (must have strong anchors not like chevy's) ha ha
i dunno what highway it is but it runs rite past jefferson barricks and the otter tip of south county and then i take the exit with target on the left hand side if ur on the exit ramp and then it shoots u out towards arnold and all that and itz a straight shoot to the big oo/dd............ill try and find out wut highway it is but im sure therez alot of easier ways to get especially if ur comin from alton this would be way outta the way

you aint gone muddin unless u got stuck at least once
Take I-255 until it crosses the river into missouri and changes to I-270, then follow I-270 a couple miles and take I-55 south past Arnold, past Pevely, past Herculaneum, past Festus, past the hwy 67 exit, past the hwy 61 exit and it is the next exit at OO/DD, then follow the signs!
me... crazy.... hahaha that aint the first time that I have heard that. yeah I remember you telling me about that place john, I forgot that was where it was, I have hear dthat they are running things a lot different then when they first started, even from last race to this race. Our club has been trying to help them a little bit, and give them some pointers on what and what not to do, so hopefully they will work on it some more next year. I can't believe someone called me crazy...lmao now thats too funny, it wasnt my trucks fault though, it was the pits, they were screwy at first I swear!!! Thanks for the directions, I hope we can find it, one of my delievery guys at the bars says he comes every time or something like that. so he said today that if we needed to we could just follow him if we needed to. Cant wait to see ya'll. and I want a ride with someone please!!!! Since I aint bringing my truck, I want a ride... just onelittle teensy ride...lol PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!
hey broke mine pretty good i snapped both axles now i can't pull the center section. i 've got to pull the rear stand it on the end and shake the hell out of it. now time is an issue cause the week before ill be laying on the beach sipping on fu fu drinks in jamaica
much needed, hell yeah ill take you for a ride up the pond if i make it
mudmama, if your coming from alton the quickest way would probably be to go straight down 270 till you get to 55. go south on 55 and follow the other directions from there. your looking at at least an hour and a half of drive time.
