Here is me attempting the Mulica Mile in south Jersey. Normally its not to hard, but when you mix ice and mud, you get this!

yea the front wheels came off the ground i I hung the frame on 7 inched worth of ice, it was in interesting experience.
 






You couldn't back out of that??

Cool pics thanks for sharing!
 






Very nice pics.. Where you driving along and the rear just sunk?
 






I was going down the trail, roughly a mile long, that was the last mud hole....

I hit it at about 25, rather than crawling through it and when i reached the end my back end fell through the ice.

I couldn't go forward because my front tires were off the ground.
I couldn't go back because i was stuck on about 8 inches of ice.
Basically, none of the wheels had ANY traction!

Needless to say it was fun and i took it much slower the rest of the way back.
 






Is that a japanese 2wd pulling you out =p
 






It is a jap, but its a 4WD, and it had a VERY hard time pulling me out. He had to do a 3500 RPM clutch bomb in 4LO just to get me moving, i was buried!!

And because i don't like jap cars that much either, let alone be saved by one, i have "good" news. The Nissan killed its clutch plated during the drop and is in the show now!
 






figured i'd update, i checked my rear fluid all is well, its a little on the brown/black side so i think im gonna change it soon, and i'll do the same for the front.

Does it mean anything if its brown?
 






means its time to change it.

Or it was filled with poo.... :(
