CJA Open Run-Waiperous Sunday September 2nd Day run

[JackstandJohnny]

Lotta fun today thanks to all that came out . Sometimes ya just gotta get your redneck on and race side by sides..... And win. Baja'n is fun. I think we were going faster on those trails than we were on the road on the way to WaipArous. Stupid slow ford escapes!

[AstraX]

Good day for sure.  Didn't break anything keeping up to you yahoo's either so that's a bonus too.

Johnny I will try and remember to get that video for you tomorrow.

Thanks for the run guys.  The wife and I had a blast.  Two notes from yesterday......skid plate worked great (just a few scratches)............white on black seamed like a great idea (in hind site not so much)

Stupid slow ford escapes!

That's not nice calling Eric's XJ a Ford Escape...

Hmmm... it was the XJ up front...

That Escape was my Sammy's best friend. I could travel comfortably at 20 under the speed limit and it wasn't ME who was holding everyone up! (at least at that point)

Thanks for the help with the Sammy, and again, sorry to hold everyone up! I haven't yet found the source of the overheating, but I did finally manage to fix this:

it may be my zombie escape machine but its no ford escape!
i was clearly much faster then the escape too;)

i hope everyone had fun, was a good day. would have been great to get to the falls but that trail is currently closed for a month while zombie fish spawn...
it was a great turn out as well. good group and everyone seemed to have fun. our suzuki samurai friend did well minus the heating and ignition issues.
a good variety or people from all over. a brand new jeep got its first mud bath and a few poeple new to wheeling got their first taste of dirt. the weather was great too. a couple more months of wheeling before the snow flys so i hope everyone gets out more too.
ill be going over pics and vids my co-driver (Kelly) took. if you would like any of these please pm me your name, email address and vehicle you were in.
thanks again to everyone that joined! do this again soon.

DOH...  I need to get here more often.  All I need is one more run to become a member....

A quick follow-up on the Samurai:
Cool as a cucumber! I pulled the rad this morning, backflushed it with a garden hose, then refilled everything with the truck up on ramps to put the rad cap at the highest point. I can't say for sure which one fixed the problem (probably the rad cap height, as a few people theorized), but we spent the afternoon at McLean with no temp spikes! A few glitches still to work out, but nothing that prevented an afternoon of fun.
