like evryones said, just take it easy and build your confidence up, im still learning things. I didint realise there was such a difference between a swb car and a lwb. Almost rolled my shorty the 2nd day i owned it by putting the front right into a hole and the back completely lifted up, my old lux would have just walked withouht lifting a wheel!

Hey mate. Sory you couldn't make it out to Glasshouse the other weekend. We didn't do too much damage to our rigs. :roll:
As with most of these trips, you have the option not to do the more extreme sections.
LCMP is a good place to get used to your rig. It has around 100km of easy tracks to practice on before you start on the hard stuff. The park is well mapped with most of the grading being pretty accurate.
Hope you get out there for the Expo next week. Wouldn't mind checking out the turbo work you have done.

Thanks alot guys for ya input it's all good :D :D :armsup:

I ordered my silders and they should be ready before expo :D :armsup:

A couple of my friends arn't real keen on going to expo at this stage but i i'm pretty sure i'll end up comming..

I feel cofident enough to go okay serious tracks just i usally fall into the deepest part of the rut/hole becuase i seem to always allow to much room for the drivers side when that really should be the side that i hug the most as i can see if i'm going to hit or fall into something..

Thanks again
