Thumbs up Tillamook SF w/ Bill Burke

My wife bought me admission to this course for my B-Day in March and it looks as if there are two more spots left. It would be cool to see more than one FJC there, any takers on joining me September 22nd & 23rd? The admission fee includes one vehicle, driver and passenger.

On The Road...

Re: Tillamook SF w/ Bill Burke

Bring a friend and have them pay for half, that's what I would do if my wife wasn't joining me...

Talking Re: Tillamook SF w/ Bill Burke

Vehicle Requirements: Frame-mounted recovery points, full-size spare tire,
CB Radio (handheld okay), No air dams/sidesteps.


*Okay still a noob, what's frame-mounted recovery points and air dams?

Speaking in FJC terms:
Frame mounted recovery points would be the two front loops that are under your front frame bent down a bit. You can pull the vehicle safely from these points.

Air dams: Not on the FJC’s . An air dam is typically a plastic trim strip hanging down below the front bumper. They are usually the first thing ripped off a truck off road.

Cool deal on the gift! I am sure most already know this but Burk is the guy Toyota hires to train the Trail Teams.

Have fun at the training course!
