Re: Camp out & Trail ride! Apr 11th-12th, Citrus.

Here are some more details;

Someone got a warning for speeding just before getting into the WMA. We will not say who but they were at the end of the 5 rig convoy, and they have a star on their FJC. So I think I am going to drive a little closer to the speed limit from now on. We could have used your radar detector.

The big Tundra broke again at the same spot.

No one made it trough Jerry's Mud hole.

Chris's FJC quit running when we met up with Gregg and Sally. Finally figured it out, and this should be of interest to you, the CAI intake tube popped off the intake manifold under the engine cover. The FJC would start and then quit. Once we figured it out, it was a easy fix. Bob said it has happened to him also.

I started to make a list of who is naughty and nice! Don't ask!

Hah! The last time we went to Citrus, I was the one who got pulled over. I had just asked Corey about Laser, I should not have done that, Laser is what got me at the head of the pack. I saw the LEO the same time Corey gave warning but it was too late.

But I must be a better citizen because I just got a verbal warning... lol

You Lucky devil, I left out west on Stage Coach Trail to Lecanto hwy then west again 576 to 19, No Fuzz in sight!! Then south on 19 jeez, The wolf packs were out in full force, two seperate speed traps one north at 98 and one south of 50. I will leave towards 75 next time, and avoid that traffic mess.

This happened to me too when we were out jumping our FJ's at the sand bowl. Mine did not quite running, but put all the lights on the dash on.

Great shots and video Paul! Wish I could have made it.

Had a great time. Everybody left too early we found this at a secret spot.
I really want to know where this is. Looks like it might be a two-seat trainer version of a P-80 shooting star. Great photo op there. I'd love to do some B&W shots.

Similiar thing happened to C the Producer, after getting some air in Hudson last year, but his came loose where the intake tube meets the CAI box. Three of us has just gotten to clearwater when a bunch of his dash lights came on. Almost as soon as he popped the hood, I noticed the problem. So it's probably a good idea to check those fasteners a few times a year.

It will take you about six and one half hours to get there from Tampa!

Or five and one half hours from Citrus!

Oh I see. It's an old Eglin shot.

Owell, just another reason to head up there & explore!
