where is there a good place around the philly area to take the subaru out? i searched on here but everything that i saw was for lifted trucks and would destroy my car. i kinda found one random road in jersey last night but i would like other options too and something that is flat and wont destroy my car.

There are no close places really. The best places is the Pine Barrens in NJ.

there are so many dirt roads off there, every time i go to lbi i just wanna drive on them but i could never tell if they were private property or what.

yea i might go to the pine barrens one weekend the next time it rains if anyone is down to go. i think i might just try that spot we found last night in jersey tomorrow night.

JB'sLGT · 11-15-2009, 03:50 PM

The pine barrens is the place to go. Just watch out for deer and of course the occasional F-18 dropping flares. lol

05suby · 11-15-2009, 10:46 PM

Haha what is it like part of a training ground?

JB'sLGT · 11-16-2009, 01:50 PM

There's a section off of 72 that the military uses for training exercises. Last year an F-18 dropped a flare there which started a big forest fire.

06njsti · 11-16-2009, 03:53 PM

i wont be headed to the woods anytime soon with my sti haha. before the fresh paint and other parts it would see the woods on the regular.

MuddyREX · 11-17-2009, 12:57 AM

Pine Barrens is the place to go. I used to love working in Jersey just for the extracurricular activities.

05suby · 11-17-2009, 07:48 AM

yea it looks like i definitely have to hit up the pine barrens. i just want to get my car covered in mud for once lol.

R22B · 11-17-2009, 09:43 AM

Yeah I plan on selling my Eibach lowering springs and putting back on the stockers with a 1” spacer from Jackson Rally. I should also have my 18” Vision X LED light bar so I’ll be golden. It’s not really a place you want to stroll around alone in case you get stuck or your car blows up because cell phone coverage is sporadic and the Pine Barrens are HUGE and you can easily get lost…. So bring a GPS along with too.

05suby · 11-17-2009, 09:45 PM

yea i have gps in my car so ill be fine with that and ill definitely have people with me. especially a truck since my friend got stuck in a phantom ditch the other night on the side of the road.

Zack@Area1320 · 11-17-2009, 11:42 PM

I already took my egg over the blue mountains on the bake oven knob dirt road. Kinda went like... me flying up the road at a good clip, lifted jeep with huge wheels slowly crawling down and giving me strange looks, me smiling and flooring it past em on the straights lol

05suby · 11-18-2009, 01:11 AM

haha nice. i want to go out with a bunch of subarus one time and have some fun.
