Winter Fun Fest 2009
Our first event of 2009 was a blast! We participated in the annual Winter Fun Fest sponsored by Cal4WD in Grass Valley, CA from January 16-18, 2009. We had good fun, good food, and good company.
New product sheets from Rubicon Express available for the participants of Friday and Saturdays Winter Fun Festival Dinner at the Grass Valley Fairgrounds: Nitro Charger, JK stabilizer bracket, TJ rear radius arm standard/stretch/upgrade, jam nut tools, JK (and soon to be TJ) Hydro bump stop package, JK adjustable track bar for the front and rear!

Mike from Rubicon Express giving tips on how to get around the course to one of the participants in the RC 4X4 challenge course.
Looks like Mike’s tips are paying off and the serious look turns to big smiles.
Kids of all ages enjoyed the 4X4 course.
Careful speed and steering skills were shown here with a little 2 wheel action!
The Chairman was there to help out by serving tasty beverages and educating people on the up and coming events like the Barret Lake Bridge project.
Usually seen with camera in hand, Chris Collard sets his photography aside to help with the Friday night dinner.
There were hundreds of people enjoying the meal at Winter Fun Fest.
Lining up for the Klondike Express run hosted by Extreme Gear 4X4 and volunteers… Rubicon Express was graciously invited to come along and enjoy the fun!

Dan flexes his TJ and tests the grip of his tires showing the crowd how to “get er done!”
The Rubicon Express 2.5in radius arm package with the 4 inch wheelbase stretch option, running on Goodyear MTR 37’s, was voted By Dan as MVP of the trip; breaking snow on the hard lines and impressing the crowd with the incredible stability and ascending capabilities the radius arm package provides.
A beautiful meadow above Fordyce turn off was the location of our lunch area where the kids got a chance to play in the snow on their sleds and loft snowballs at each other.
Scott from Extreme Gear showing us how deep the snow is while we all enjoyed the sunshine.
Beautiful scenery is a big part of the package on the Klondike Express snow run; here you can see a snow covered lake framed with lots of blue sky.
