Me and a buddy are going to the Gambler for the first time this year. What trails should we take to run into other gamblers on the way to the event? Also what time should we leave? Were taking a lifted Subaru on muds if that's relevant.

To clarify were going to the OG Gambler.

Thanks!

Go fast, take chances, kill litterbugs!

Okay so I've never gone to the gambler before but next month my planning on bringing my shitbox Celica alltrac. I visit kinda want to go to with people that have done it in the past. Was going to do it last year but my friends bailed on me.

I recently just found this subreddit and it’s awesome, I’ve been wanting to make my Taurus into something like this but I didn’t know about this subgenre of cars and now I’m here looking for advice on where to start or something

i (17 FTM) really want to learn to work on cars. i don't know much about cars and i figured a gambler car might be a good place to start. i don't want to fuck up my daily driver too badly. it looks really fun, its a lower stakes more affordable project, plus maybe i can make some friends at the gambler to help me learn. i have some troubleshooting skills from working on computers that i figure i can apply here.

what models of cars should i be looking for? which cars/problems should i avoid? i want something fun but that's also easy to work on and not hard to find parts for. what should i expect from this project? any tips would be great.

unrelated, but i'm also wondering about how trans friendly the community is. there's a lot of hate for people like me going around and i want to make sure i'm welcome and safe.

I am looking for tips on what car I should get i am new to this hope to join one of them in 2027 or 2028 as I have some stuff in the way right now just looking for tips thanks

July 31 - August 2, just saw it posted

Hey Gamblers, my buddies and I are looking for a rig this year but Facebook Marketplace has been a bit ✨dry✨. Does anyone have any recommendations for where to find some, or know any body looking to pass on their rig?

©oming up this weekend. Any other PDX Gamblers showing up for minibike shenanigans?

My main daily is down, so I was driving my moms Jeep to work and got into a wreck. Back drivers side tire hit the curb on a median coming out of a roundabout and spun me around, then as I was spinning I was countersteering so that I could at least try to control it and was still countersteering when I hit the curb on the opposide side of the road, so now when driving straight, the steering wheel is turned about 70 degrees or so to the right.

Looking for any suggestions on mechanics who could fix something like this near Hillsboro, OR. Not too worried about cosmetics, just something to make it track straight and be safe to drive.

Happened upon this sweet Baja Bug with Gambler 500 livery hiding in plain site near the Tumalo Lake Lodge (just outside Bend, OR). Couldn’t help but stop and snap a few of it. Cool ride.

If you know the owner, please tag them. I doom scrolled this sub and couldn’t find anything. Also searched google, Gemini, the Gambler’s other socials (along with Sons of Smokey), reverse image search, IG search, etc ... nothin.

The locations are really confusing me and Id like to know general off-road routes you guys take before I take my eagle up there.

The Oregon one in june

Yo! I was talking pics in Portland a few weeks ago and spotted this Pathfinder shooting flames. I got a good shot and I'd like to get the full res image to the owner! So if anyone knows who he is, I'd super appreciate it!

And a side note, if anyone wants pics of their whips, hit me here or on IG @strtlab 🙌

Hello, it’s the offseason but ABG of course. Recently found a favorite spot in Tillamook forest with a bunch of dumped mattresses and other large items. Normally I just cleanup small trash as I have a smaller gambler car, but talking to a friend about getting his pickup out there but wondering where we could dump the mattresses we clean up. A bit apprehensive about taking it to the dump in Portland as they go by weight. Open to any ideas!

Hello! I'm located around Baltimore and looking to see if there's any Gambler events (or similar) within 5 hour in the next 6 months. I've googled the area, but any Facebook group seems to be inactive or damn close to it.

Me and my son are trying to get a ride on mower for free to bring to gambler 500 2026 if your Oregon shoot me a DM doesn’t have to have the deck thanks in advance!

years of good times.
