2009 Shiloh Halloween Run

[JB]

October 16-18.

The Bronco and Jeep are going. Always a good time. Hopefully it will have cooled off a little by then.


:beer:

[jerryg79]

no football game that weekend.

Trying to get htown crew motivated!

[bcolman]

i may be in for this

[JB]

The normal Cardoc crew is going with several rigs and Jeremiah might pilot the ZJ

[colman]

i'm in

[Sharpe]

Mehbeh

[jerryg79]

JB, karl wanted to know what the facilities were like at Alto. I havent been there in like 5 yrs, but i remember they had showers back then. I thought i heard they had made some improvements since then.

[DRAGOONRANCH]

Yes, they have real showers and ****ters. It's no Motel 6-Raton, but it'll get the job done. :gigem:

[JB]

The showers and toilets, expecially on a busy weekend like that, have lines and, at least to me, are pretty nasty. I go into town to poop and don't shower until I get home.

[Sharpe]

Workin up a 3-day stank in 100+ degree heat is part of the fun!

[85cj7]

we'll see, dependent on funds

[4-Banger]

I'm in.

[jerryg79]

I think Htown peoples are in on this. Plan is klogger, and I'll be towing frick's jeep concraption.

[KrazyKarl02]

I think Htown peoples are in on this. Plan is klogger, and I'll be towing frick's jeep concraption there and then the klogger will tow it on the trail.

You left something out, so I fixed it.

[JB]

Thought of this today. Once I get back from CO, and get the house moved in, Bronco needs a crossmember and a little Sterling TLC and she is ready to go.

[BroncoJo]

I'm a definite maybe, pending bronco revival.

[JB]

so no?:flipoff2:

[BroncoJo]

so no?:flipoff2:

hey I picked up new shoes for it today:flipoff2:

[Eckert]

hey I picked up new shoes for it today:flipoff2:

yeah, it got real far today!:flipoff2:

pending the bronco gets out in time for me to get mine done.

[Reckless]

ill be down for going

[bcolman]

i might be in pending i have the money for the trip

[BroncoJo]

I don't believe there is anyway I can make this unless I find another rig

[JB]

Cardoc is going down like on Wednesday. Camping spot is to the left of the main road, at teh very back, along the treeline. I will tell Chet to save some room next to their campsite.

[jerryg79]

Klogger will be there from last i heard, so i will be there one way or the other.

[KrazyKarl02]

Klogger will be there from last i heard, so i will be there one way or the other.

I don't think Frigoneer will make it, however the Klogger will be there playing a CD with nothing but 10 tracks of panama on permanent repeat.

[Reckless]

[DRAGOONRANCH]

yes

[85cj7]

I'm out. Going to Austin on a school trip.

[Shaggy]

i bet it is crazy muddy out there right now

[CheapJeep]

I might make this now, depends on whether or not the bracket race gets rained out again...weather doesn't look too promising.

[KrazyKarl02]

Anyone coming from Dallas?

[BMFScout]

I'm a definite maybe, how late do you think the gates are open. I would either get there around 1 am Saturday morning, or sleep in Dallas then come up Saturday am.

[jerryg79]

Gates are probably open all night.

Dont be a puss.

JB you guys bringing a grill?

[JB]

I was just planning on bringing my little Coleman camping gas grill to cook hot dogs and burgers on.

I am also going to try and bring plenty of water for cleaning because it is going to be nasty out there.

[TMatheaus]

fawk it, im in, i can bring a small gas grill that works off of the green propane bottles

[J Cooper]

damnit.

i will be driving almost right past the place on my way home from work at the end of the week

... think i can convince the new guy from TU to go hang out with a bunch of rednecks in the mud all weekend?

[Reckless]

or just send him back with the truck

[Reckless]

im not sure at the moment, just depends on some things back home.

[J Cooper]

or just send him back with the truck

are you kidding? we have a chrysler minivan.... i plan to wheel! :flipoff2:

[DRAGOONRANCH]

are you kidding? we have a chrysler minivan.... i plan to wheel! :flipoff2:

Best. Idea. Ever!:gigem:

(Just tell him there will be plenty of guys running around with their shirts off playing in the mud, and he will be down like Rodney King after a high speed chase!)

[cj nut]

Minivan, alto, beer, tamor.... Unbeatable combination

[jerryg79]

are you kidding? we have a chrysler minivan.... i plan to wheel! :flipoff2:

i'll take you to the airport to pick up your truck on sunday if he drops you off, its not that far out of the way on the way home from karls.

You're a puss if you don't!

[JB]

It's been done....

[JB]

I am getting excited.

Jeremiah and his friend Bryan are coming from SA to my house on Thursday. We are going to work on Jeep/Bronco and get Bronco loaded. I am going to drive my ass to Mont ****ing Belvieu for work Friday morning while they stay at my house working on Jeep and getting it loaded. They will then head out sometime Friday. I will get off when I get off, head to Bryan, pick up Bronco turd, and drive to Alto, getting there hopefully before dark and 1/3 drunk.

If anyone one in BCS needs a place to wrench Thurs/Fri, let me know. Somebody will be at my house doing something. 7 miles out 21 from 6, rt on Opersteny, left on Coleman, last house on left.

[JB]

Weather looks good, but it is going to be muddy.

Tommy said he was in. Frick is out.

[davido]

This is why I need a fourwheeler. I don't want to dick with bringing the Cruiser out and cleaning it. Plus I told myself I'd mail back Higg's driveshaft and not wheel it again. I'll drop my broken one off tomorrow.

I'm a maybe. Got a pass. No other plans. Sounds fun. It's going to be MESSY!

[bcolman]

BOOOOOO HISSSS!

[cj nut]

This ride should be a sweet ride, wish colman would fix his terd before the day we are supposed to leave..... But makes things interesting.... How many rides are with the car doc guys? And are we planning on camping with them?

[davido]

This is going to be awesome. It's muddy as hell out there. Chris and Kevin are also coming. Some may remember them from a Gilmer trip way back when. Chris was my freshman roommate. Kevin is a friend of his from HS. He's the one that has the funny ass childhood (say hello to my little friend) and lawyering (fating *****) stories.

Ah, classic campfire fun.

[robertf03]

Pretty sure I'm in, but not sure what time I'm leaving. Want to stick around for the Obamamania then hit the road.

[Seth]

tempting...

Cardoc is bringing 2-3 rigs, a Suburu, a Lexus, and maybe a Tercel.

Chet is leaving CS in the morning and getting our normal site. I told him to block off a section next to theirs for TAMOR.

[J Cooper]

I am not going, I would love to but I really can not

[jerryg79]

JB whats your cell #?

Colman too. We'll be up there and dont know who to look for to find the camping spot.

[JB]

seven 1 three 398-5405

[colman]

832 48nine 5974

[bcolman]

Pretty sure I'm in, but not sure what time I'm leaving. Want to stick around for the Obamamania then hit the road.

when do you think you will be leaving?

[robertf03]

6, 7, something like that. I need to check the timing on the disco before I drive out there. Got a light?

I'm planning on sleeping in the car and eating raw chef boyardee all weekend, so packing won't take long.

[Reckless]

if yall would wait till 8, id pitch in for fuel

[bcolman]

my brother has a light but i am not sure where it is, ill look tomorrow and let you know

[colman]

it iis in the second drawer from the bottom of my tool box

[cj nut]

Trailer is loaded sitting in front of school, heading to cs in aprox. 7 hours......

[cj nut]

Hey if you get colmans light bring it with you, I still need to do timing on my jeep.....

[bcolman]

I am out for the trip, but if you want to mess with your timing flem just give me a call

[JB]

**** it. I am taking Friday off. SHould be there early afternoon tomorrow.

[cj nut]

That's the tamor spirit the hell with work....

[eight]

What you need timing light for? Turn it forward until it pings, then back it off a little. It never ends up at the specs. Make sure the engine is good and hot when you do it.

[4-Banger]

I probably won't get there until early Saturday.

[JB]

We are here. Back left corner, under a tree, next to a gate. Overlooking south?side of property. My F150 and trailer and a blue F150 with trailer if you do not see the Bronco or ZJ. Not as muddy as you would think, but it is going to be crowded

[KrazyKarl02]

Save me a spot big enough for a duramax and a trailer :gigem:

[jerryg79]

made it out here. only like a 1/2 hour wait to get in. jb already drunk. klogger has a headlight malfunction. already seen 100000 4 whlrs. and maybe a lute tail. karl brought the 100 cc dirt bikewe have deemed it the nagged chaser. daveo see you tomm. Tommy says **** all the poosies that didn't show.

[stx4wheeler]

I'll give someone a beer next time I see them if they take the bungees off of karks "Expedition Rig " once he passes out .:gigem:

[robertf03]

[Shaggy]

yall sound like you should check in in the drunk boasting thread

[robertf03]

cell phone keyboard ;)

speaking of, only carnage this weekend was the cell phone. Had mud almost to the windows a few times this weekend and all of the lucas junk didn't care, but cell phone that stayed dry and in the console most of the weekend is trashed.

Insurance is good, this week will mark treo #3 for the year.

this is after the imaginary super polaris ranger pulled us out friday.

http://rmpwpa.blu.livefilestore.com/y1pkHqpiMnFMpK8M0Ci94Z1ceCvhP29g2dIQ262KlUwckbJwNp _tcrga4ramXJ11z4n-9KRxPp5m36akh72_zveB44aWl6sapt9/img033.jpg

I think this week I'll be changing every fluid in the truck and purging anything that takes grease.

[Doug Krebs]

I'm sad I missed this trip. However, I'm not sad that this morning I won't have to deal with the debauchery from yesterday/last night!

[robertf03]

I left at 9 and didn't see any, but it looked like it was about to blow up. Got hit twice by ATVs on my way towards the exit and some biggin' in a LSU shirt ran up and rambled something about an invitation to go hogging.

Having to work this morning was probably a good thing.

[jerryg79]

good times!

Yeah typing on iphone plus drunk = almost unreadable.

Lots of stories of drunkeness. Davido may or may not have bought an expensive atv.

[Seth]

now thats funny. wish i could have made it.

[colman]

carnage report:

cory- broke front yj spring... welded plate to it so he could limp around the mud pit, other 3 are either bent or s'd
me- carb issues but still ran almost all weekend, steering shaft popped out, laid on both sides, almost went endo 3 times on a hill climb (i need wheelbase), fried starter solenoid
karl- sterling yoke and pride
jb- stub shaft (while pulling me up hill)
jb's zj- beat to hell in general, destroyed front tire but still runs. can't seem to kill it
davido- sunk cousins 4wheeler and it floated for a while, may have bought it from his cousin in the end
david's tu friend- 4 wheeler wouldn't start
jeremiah's blazer(i think it was his)- rear 10 bolt exploded, its ok it was only on 44" ground hogs and it should have held...


lots of empty beer cans....good times

[stx4wheeler]

Hey Colman I thought your jeep had tbi??? So how did you have carb issues??

[JB]

I do not even know where to start. Bronco ran great all weekend. It's winch got a workout pulling lots of people out. I broke a 60 stub while winching Colman up a hill, with my tire close to full lock. I gave it a little gas in reverse and it popped, taking out the Warn hub and ****ing up the spindle threads. I got it all back together for some 3wd fun.

The ZJ can not be stopped. It constanlty pops out rears springs, and I lost a rear spacer, but it ran ALOT of miles out there and never got over 195. The interior smell like a bar. Is airing out now.

I saw titties. I saw ass. The Bronco had a prime location next to the Chevy with the stripper pole. I saw fights. I heard crazy stories from crazy rednecks. I drank alot of beer. Shiloh Ridge did not let me down. Work tomorrow willnot be fun.

[JB]

...

[TMatheaus]

overall good weekend at alto, ran out of gas on the dirtbike at 1 in the mornin, saw katy knee boardin, some some other chicks hood sleding, consumed lots of beer

[TMatheaus]

more

[cj nut]

for the record you can weld leaf springs together, and wheel it.... Kinda, drank a lot of beer had some good wheeling..... Typical alto run, had a blast. And carls "ttb" song is going to be the next greatest hit. He killed a stearling yoke and then gimped on the ttb I'm a beleiver......

[KrazyKarl02]

All weekend long, if anyone was stuck, I would say, "hey you know why that guy is stuck?"

My answer, "He doesn't have TTB!"

Seriously, I broke a 1350 series yoke, and the TTB was up front just hanging out calling it a *****.

Oh and Katy's got some big ass tatties....

[davido]

Short trip, but great time.

The short of it is that we were putting across some water that we both thought we had driven through about an hour previous. Evidently I missed it by a bit and rolled the ATV into a water hole, upside down. It died/turned itself off on the way over. But I did try to start it afterwards and it was no go. While towing it back to camp, the lights died also. Not a good thing. It's the nicest thing my cousin has and I promised him IBIB. Kevin and I both got completely soaked. Wallet, boots and all. Froze on the ride back to camp. Stripped down to skibbys and took the truck over to the showers. I didn't have another pair of boots, so thanks Coleman for the flip flops. It was cold last night!

The good news is that the ATV runs again. Corey and my neighbor were right. Sprayed it clean. Hit the electronic connections with WD40. Pulled the plugs. Sprayed WD40 inside. It did have a some water, so not good. Spray, crank and clear. Again. Check oil. Again. Again. Again. After a good flushing I put the plugs back in and after a few cranks it started right up. There was water in the tailpipe also, sprayed everywhere. Not only does that crap not come out of clothes, you can't wash it off your house either.

I had been checking the crankcase oil every couple of cranking cycles. Stayed clear until up until it briefly ran and then got milky. I caught it right after it started and shut it down. Drained the oil. Trying to find oil and a filter tomorrow. A few flushes of oil and filters and it should be fine. This according to my neighbor who is the Karl Crouch of motoguruness in the neighborhood. He's evidently done this several times with bikes and ATVs. So I'm hopeful.

I'll be breaking the news to my cousin tomorrow to see what he wants to do. I want to get it all done first so I know where I stand. It was so bad ass though, I was tempted to keep it anyway. Sick 800 HO power. Four wheel burnouts and fishtailing on tap. The only downside is cha-ching. We'll see.

My body got the beat down from just the few hours of intense riding that we did. Legs, arms, and back are all a little sore. Thanks JB for putting this together. It was great to finally meet some of the legendary Car Docs crew. Good guys. Good times. I forget how entertaining that place is. Good trail riding and GREAT people watching.

[BroncoJo]

my old honda was flooded more times then one could count, you should be fine.

[eight]

Make sure you change the diff fluids too, and if there's anything else that takes fluid.

[JB]

All weekend long, if anyone was stuck, I would say, "hey you know why that guy is stuck?"

My answer, "He doesn't have TTB!"

Seriously, I broke a 1350 series yoke, and the TTB was up front just hanging out calling it a *****.

Oh and Katy's got some big ass tatties....

Karl, have you considered the idea of TTB for the REAR of Klogger?

Yeah, think about it.

[KrazyKarl02]

John Brown: Yeah I broke a front 60 shaft
Karl: Hey, I know of this axle swap you should do to the front of that thing, it is pretty much the best thing ever, it's called TTB....

The problem is they do not make a reverse rotation for the TTB chunk. I have purchased a 1'X1'X6" piece of billet steel and am currently using a file to cut my own reverse cut gears. After that, it will pretty much be unbreakable.

[Sharpe]

**** that just flip a front chunk upside down. Put a fill plug at the very top of the housing so you can fill every bit of the diff with oil and call it good.

[mudtoy67]

Sounds like a good time!:gigem:

[robertf03]

some junk. Cory do you need me to mail you the winch control?

[redcagepatrol]

I see Kolpeckie chose his favorite shirt!

Who is this Katy individual?

Looks like fun! - an I did a family reunion on Saturday and worked on the Patrol all Sunday...

[jerryg79]

any large breasted woman is katy!

Chappelle show: "Katy's got some bigass tittaes!"

its much easier to say "hey is that katy" then "god damn flem look at the sweater puppies on that chick, she could feed an orphanage!"

[colman]

i had tbi and it couldn't get it to run right and didn't have time to get flem to make me a nother chip so i slapped a carb back on for the weekend but the tbi will be back on and working for clayton

[Seth]

Still bummed I missed out.

[colman]

flem, give the controller to me, i see cory often and i think he may have even taken the controller from me anyway. i will figure it out with him

[cj nut]

Ya it's colmans controler

[davido]

I talked to the owner today. Two oil changes and two diesel flushes later, I think it's totally clean. Runs good. Sounds good. I'm bringing it back to him on Saturday with extra oil and a filter. I gave him the rundown on everything I did and he seems to think it will be fine also.

In other news, I talked to a guy at BVD today. He told me that he had a ThunderCat (1000CC Arctic Cat with cool name) stolen from his house. Cut two fences, broke into the garage, cut the chain and pushed it all the way back out to the highway. Crazy! What was more crazy is that he had $14,000 in that thing between purchase and suspension and tire upgrades and the insurance company is offering him $3500. That eats it!

He saw the Can-Am and started asking me about it. One cool thing about Can-Ams is that they have a chip in the key. Downside is the extra expense of the setup and the keys are $50. The upside is that if it gets disconnected and replaced with another key system, then the computer has to be reset by a dealer who requires ownership verification. He said that they're coming out with ones with GPS locating on them, like OnStar. Wild.

I was totally oblivious to the costs and issues with all of this stuff. I've never for once been concerned that someone would break into my garage to steal my Cruiser. :)

[robertf03]

will it disable the atv when the owner misses payments?

[eight]

ATV theft is real common. Usually they'll hit a couple people in the same area. We've been through a couple rounds in the Karnes City area. Don't let them sit out where they can be seen, ever. If they don't know you have it they won't steal it. Or just have junk.

[breckboarder55]

A kid in my cal class went with a couple of buddys. One of them got the **** kicked out of him because he wouldn't give some rednecks some of his pot apparently... Made me chuckle...

[Shaggy]

hot pocket?

[breckboarder55]

hot pocket?

:p That was good...
