Ocala Alpha pit 08/15/09

[LebaneseShowoff]

So this weekend i went up to ocala with Cayman 4x4's Land Rover crew amd we had a blast, the last time i went there i had my jeep and totally embarassed myself, lol. That's what got me into buying my land rover. And i went this time and i had all the Jeepers there impressed, lol. All i had was tires.

Meeting @ the service plaza

dropping the air pressure... 15psi does the job.

nice view between 2 trails, Kodak Moment, lol

Jeep Recovery Team

They should have been on the off road section.

Where are the action pics?

Looks like everyone had a great time. Nice pics.

FYI. To save you the trouble, there is No need whatsoever to drop air pressure unless you are on rocks. There are basically no rocks in Florida besides that offroad park, "HardRock."

And by the look of the pics there was just dirt.

Oh yea, where are the action shots?!

[Jonesy]

why drop tire pressure to 15PSI??? I was of the understanding it is a necessity for sand and something you "can" do for rocks?

Also - nice looking classic - What tires is that bloke running on it???

If you ever go to alpha pit, there are plenty of rocks, just about every where is rocks, and we didn't go to hard rock because it's boring, you can't destroy a car there.

No rocks in florida. By the look of the pics I don't think anyone was "destroying" a car... so I don't quite understand that statement.

airing down improves the ride much better. it's not always about traction, but comfort. i'll pay $2 and a few minutes to air my tires back up so i can actually enjoy my self. i like to drive fast and not have my teeth jarred out.

airing down is also necessary for other things than rocks, fyi.

When you're offroading. Its always about traction... Who cares about ride comfort when you're hitting the trails.. pussy.

Airing down is sometimes needed for sand and rocks. Anything else, get better tires.

really pete ? grow up.


airing down sure as hell never hurt me in mud either, a wider contact patch helped me get through more than a few mudholes back home in FL.
