*** NOTE: Cache is NOT
hidden at the above coordinates! ***
Being die-hard NASCAR fans, we decided to hide a cache that
required the finder to learn a little NASCAR history before being
able to log a find.
Cache is an ACTUAL, HONEST TO GOODNESS AMMO BOX! Cache
has a die-cast collectible car for a FTF prize, in addition to the
usual goodies. Also, started this cache off with the 1st CAV Combat
TB and a new Green Jeep TB!
Park closes at 10:00 pm. You may need to use stealth at
certain times due to muggles. Please, please, hide cache as
you found it.
To find the coordinates of this cache, first circle the correct
answer to the questions lettered “A” through “J” below. Then,
transfer the number of the correct answer into the following
equation.
A=___ B=___ C=___ D=___ E=___ F=___ G=___ H=___ I=___ J=___
N 41° (A+C)(B+I).(D+E+J)(H)(E)
W 090 (F+G+H).(B)(A+D+G)(C)

Wait! Have you ever finished a puzzle cache and headed
out to make the grab, only to find out you screwed up the
coordinates? After you have completed the quiz, check your
coordinates for this puzzle, before you head out for the search,
using this link:
Geochecker. It will make sure you have answered all the
questions correctly, done the math right, and may save you some
time and gas. With gas prices as high as they are, we need all the
help we can get!
Good luck!!!
