I went to VIMC 3 times this year plus slalom that they just started. $60 and get up to 100km/h or so. It was a blast! Next one is Oct 18th.
Will see if Western Speedway stays or not.

i wish more people would do this ^^ so many take for granted that we live in one of the most spectacular places in the world. People wait their whole lives and spend massive $'s to travel here.
I'm guilty of it myself. despite travelling to the okanagan and cariboo my whole life, I have rarely trekked much further. Would love to spend a summer in a westfalia just wandering BC

You just gotta be ok with not knowing where you'll be sleeping that night, when the next shower is or if you're ok jumping into a cold lake and also being well prepared. I have everything I need to be independent on the road - chainsaw + axe for firewood, all cooking necessities + fridge and comfortable sleeping arrangement. Quote:

The fuel/food cost of that trip might be low, but lets be real that's a $$$ setup you've got there.

I was building it for future trips including a 3 week nomad trip this summer through the US ending with Burning Man but then Covid happened. Quote:

Obvs to each their own and if it makes people happy more power to them, I just remember when overlanding was called "camping" and it was $100 worth of stuff from Canadian Tire shoved into the back of whatever vehicle you own. ngl if I had the funds I'd have a nice setup too (though maybe a 4Runner instead of a Taco) but at the end of the day even the guys with $100k setups are still shitting in the woods like the rest of us

LOVE the idea of driving around camping
NOT loving the idea of spending $80,000+ to do it........
I love the colour of that truck though... and the new lunar rock one too...

One of my biggest regrets in life after leaving Vancouver is that I wasn't able to explore or just go cross-country in a road trip through provinces or states in US (in a RV that sort). I've spent countless weekends in Vegas, Seattle, and Victoria...
There's just too many priorities and obligations in life now that I don't see me able to be doing that anytime soon
