I think until they move some trails or the range it will be closed. A guy was out wheeling in his jeep and it was hit by a stray bullet. That was pretty much the close time. How i heard it anyway.
Yeah I had always wondered about that some of those trails go pretty close. Moving the range is that much more simple.
yeah, simple... the red tape with alll the environmental preperations to deal with "lead" and such would add so much to the cost of a new range that i doubt the forest service would ever be able to afford a new range.
I actually talked to the guy that used to help run it, and he said they were thinking hard about moving some of the trails out there. Can not for the life of me think of the name but it was the closest one. Slabpile or something. No map in my head right now.
I'll be rolling in with no shock mount bolt. Installing new spacers on the rear and the bolt snapped off. I can't seem to drill it nor remove it( it snapped off with very little torque so I'm sure a easy out would work, it's not seized or anything ). So if anybody has a trick up there sleeve and wants to help I would be extremely happy. Does anyone know If there is power at any camp? I can brig tools but I couldn't get it out and Toyota wanted 538$ do re tap it and I can't afford it.
If anybody has a welder maybe we can weld a nut on the end or weld the washer to the sleeve and do it that way. I really would like to fix this before I wheel all Saturday. It's secured by many clamps and not coming off on the highway. But wheeling is a bit different.
It's a M12 1.25 ( same as 80 series I believe). Dealership here can't get one for 5 days.

call fred anderson toyota in raleigh monday morning tell then you are with old north state cruisers. tell them you need a shock bolt (should be part #90901-19052) it should run you about 3 bucks, and they should have it at the dealship tuesday am. let me know if this happens, I will pick the bolt up and bring a drill, some ez outs and a tab.. i will be at the group camp friday evening. we can work on it then.
ok I have to ask since I've never been to the group camp. I thought I read there were showers, bathrooms...but curious about electricity I assume? gotta make sure since the littlest ones are coming as well. I am thinking of taking a half day on Friday and coming early to set up. anyone else going down early Friday?
there is some electric at the bath house. but not in the camping areas of group camp.
I'll be there around noonish waiting for Nick to get there so we can work on his shock bolt. Look for a black bronco ii with no doors. And a black lab strolling around it.
I will be there before lunch on Fri. In Wht F250 Crew Cab with company logo on side "Carolina Grassmasters"

Registration is now closed, if you aren't on the list I didn't get any type of email from or about you. We will be going off of that list for raffle numbers, food numbers, camping set up (we will have it split into 3 sections for tents since there is three group camps, there will be family, quiet and less quiet sections. If you camp in the less quiet one don't complain about the noise 
)
No more registrants will be taken. Thanks to everyone who decided to come hopefully this will be one to remember.

well please put me down for the family (most quiet) section....even though with the kids it'll probably end up the most quiet section.
The family section is supposed to be quiet...... have a family section so the kids can play together more and families can be around each other.
Put me down for the piss drunks section.... Haha. If I'm there before you... What section is that... I don't want to make Amy families mad at 1am.
Agreed. do you have a tentative map of where you are going to put the different groups?
yes... in my head but I can't remember exactly where each group camp sits
So
When you drive in, the one to the left is the quiet non-family section, next one is the family section going clock wise and then the last one will be where the louder section will be.
