Can't comment on driving ability, but your rig seems like it should be set up for all those runs. I'd say go ahead, take your time, don't hold up the group, and have fun. I'm gunning 7 Mile the opening Saturday.

you might want to reconsider golden spike but the others are great i will me leading hells on Thursday it a very fun trail

Do all those you listed, especially poison spider. Hells Revenge on the EJS is pretty dang fun too.

Golden Spike is probably my favorite trail during EJS. But Hell's is up there.

Hell's Revenge is the quintessential Moab trail. A LOT of slickrock, it's like a rollercoaster for 4x4's. Golden Spike is fun but it's a long drive, full day kinda run. Poison Spider is a must do trail.

I think the main thing about EJS is to plan on meeting lots of people, lots of socializing, lots of watching other people doing the obstacles... don't plan on buzzing through the trails like you do with your 3 or 4 buddies back home. Take a camera, take a magazine, take a book, take some food and drinks! Enjoy the outdoors Sounds like you've done the EJS thing before, so I'm not telling you anything new, maybe just a reminder
