How do I get to the Buffer Zone?

[gulfdiver]

Is it off 59 or 10?
Is it a dirt road?
Do you need a 4X4?
Correct me if I am wrong but from the freeway going east you would hang a left going under the freeway and it would be your first left and follow the road to the end?

Here:

For the record, it's off of 10.

Buffer zone?



What's this buffer zone you speak of?

 

[slinkyonrampage]

Why don't we just sticky the directions and map for getting to the BZ. This question gets asked constantly.

 

[MyTFAL]

Put it in the premium section ONLY!

It is exit 2 off of I-10. There is a visitor center with restrooms south of 10. You will be goin north of 10.

Come in from northern road & loop back to the BZ & the road is good except for a few holes. It is about .7 miles north of I-10. You'll be turning left just before the hwy turns to due north. Street vehicle will make it.

Come in from the southern road & the road is not too good. Long rutted muddy hole. Some vehicles might get stuck.

I've made the drive a few times. It's not really that bad.

Hmmm, just a little of topic, but anybody else notice the qualifying "wifes" before every mini, lately?

(just F'n with ya swamp!! )

I just got my man card back. I have to do some cover work to maintain it now....





But for the record.. I like the Mini alot... If you have never gone 130 MPH on a bumpy country rd jumping hills and sliding corners you just havent lived...

I took it to Missouri last year and my brother and I took it to his hunting camp .. It was a blast hauling ass on those old country roads..
But fact of the mater is... It really is my wifes....If it where mine it would have the Works package

Actually, the mini is a fun little toy. Like a street legal go-kart. My friend had a S with the Cooper Works package and it ran it's ass off. I took it around NPR a few times! He's since gotten rid of it for Lotus's (Loti? ). His current is a Exige S240. 250+ HP in a 2000 lb car! He says it's his second most favorite car, next to his F430!

It is one of those shoot at your own risk places.
