Hey guys, I just figured that while WF is still on everyone's mind and everyone was out having great time this weekend (I know I did) that this month is the membership drive. So especially those black named fellas, join up support NAXJA and the MWC and buy a membership. If you have a membership already, renew your membership. We all enjoyed the commrodery and new things we learned. Give it back to NAXJA by becoming a member and support the one and only Midwest Chapter.

Couldn't have said it better myself. This is a group full of great people whom even though I have only met some of them a handful of times I consider them friends. I know some people have tight budgets(I know i do) but giving back to this Club is worth it to me. So pony up some duckets you broke Mofo's and join up! :D
 
You're all getting my vast knowledge and scarcasm for another year.:D I renewed. :wave1:

You don't have to even be close to your membership expiration date either. When you renew, it's tacked on to the end of your current membership.
There is a chapter contest going on with this membership drive as well so, keep that in mind. Pony up! If for nothing else just to keep the calitards from winning!

I was going to join but I would never pass inspection and get to wheel with you cuz NAXJA dont like welded on tow hooks.

Well, grind them off and bolt them on! It may need to be added to the requirements that they be properly attached. Sucks you couldn't wheel with us but the guys doing tech know what they are talking about and if they say its a bad idea then it probably was. Its not like WF just comes up out of the Blue, there is a whole year to plan stuff. Hell, I wrecked my old Jeep in November and had the new one ready for WF(give or take a couple parts).

Oh, got ya. I wasn't aware of this. Didn't mean to sound like a dick either. I wouldn't think them being welded to thin sheetmetal would be that secure though. thats why i said that.

I dont understand the differnce between welded on tow hooks and welded on D-rings that alot of people had. plus I would be willing to bet it is stronger than a factory tow hook mount. It was an unwritten rule that was spung on me as I was broke hanging off a rock ledge which was frustrating.
number on thing i dont understand:
Why did they not want to hook to my welded on tow hook but they wanted to hook onto my 1/8th inch tube stinger that was welded on and not braced (its not finished yet) :confused1

:twak: lets be serious for one min

well I'm not trying to start anything here, but if you knew that you're rear bumper was not fit to pull off of why didn't you speak up? you could have put someone in danger by not having the proper setup to run with us. Its up to our tech inspectors (very experienced guys I might add) may have missed something when you got inspected. But it sounds like you weren't fit to run with the group and that a Staff Member kindly pointed out that you didn't fit requirements. Stop whining, rules are rules buddy. Get your jeep up to spec and then you can come out with us.
