Just my 2 cents....
We are ONLY a week and a half away!!!!!!!!
Triple check these lists to insure you have what you need and start a pile in your garage/house
now.
Don't wait until the night before.
Make a list and check off each item. With all the offroading gear required, its easy to forget stuff you would normally not carry, like a Helmet, so be sure to inventory your equipment!!
Every truck must have these items at a minimum before participating:
1. Working 4wd
2. All maintenance up to date and no major issues
3. Decent tires: We’re not going to go around and checking everyone’s tires but if you have very little remaining tread do us a favor and get them replaced before the event.
4. Spare tire/tires secured and located in the bed of the truck. Contact WSI for mounting solutions
5. Helmet(s) - Mandatory for the closed course/high speed areas
6. Tow strap at least 20’ and rated to pull the truck and 2 D rings
8. Boots: You may have to get out into mud so have the appropriate footwear.
9. Outdoor clothing: This event is rain or shine so like above have the appropriate clothing for the weather conditions.
Recommended additional items:
1. You do not need a Co-pilot but it is recommended to help with communication traffic and navigating the trails. Plus it’s more fun with someone in the truck with you.
2. VHF/FRS radio
3. Navigation: Lowrance, Garmin, Android/Apple tablet with an offroad map app.
4. 5 gallons extra gas
5. A Come along
6. Floor jack and some wood blocks to help support it in soft surfaces
7. Auxiliary lighting* Optional for the event, but REQUIRED to participate in the KC HiLites Night Run
8. First Aid Kit
9. Tools
