Re: Places To Go Wheelin' *757*
I figured this thread could be of use to us in the 757 who like playing in the mud, sand, and anything else we can get our trucks in. Here are a few places I know of and some pictures of what you can expect. You can use the street names I give you to google earth the area and pinpoint the location. I do not know if these places are legal to wheel in, but I've never had a problem with Police anywhere.
I'm hoping others will chime in and we can share our places.
***NEWPORT NEWS, VA***
1. Down Richneck Rd. off of Fort Eustis Blvd. just over the railroad tracks along the powerlines.
2. Under the bridge where Denbeigh Blvd. crosses over I-64 and the railroad tracks.
***HAMPTON, VA***
1. Behind Tysinger Motor Company at 2712 Magruder Blvd. where there is construction going on and also behind the grave yard that's back there.
***YORKTOWN, VA***
1. Off of Old York Hampton Drive which can be turned onto from 17. Go down about half way and there is a path off the road. Take it back a few hundred ft and you'll find lots of open area full of ruts and trails. This area extends all the way back to the railroad tracks. VERY DEEP HOLES!, Bring a wench or Recovery Buddy!

If you take that dirt road across Nansemond parkway about a mile in there is a power line cut through in the woods that backs up to the landfill with some decent mud...

haha go to the powerlines in yorktown and see how long it takes for the cops to get there...i bet its less then 10 min from the time you turn off of the main road to go back there..and chances are your gonna get stuck and be screwed...only one way in and out now as well...have fun...there is no where in the 757 to legally dig...check the schedule for the mud bogs...that is your only bet

No, unfortunately... The place in suffolk that we are talking about did have a couple decent hill climbs tho. Star Motors in Suffolk has a little trail they built but it isn't very technical either. There is plenty of stuff in western VA tho...
