it wasn't quite that long festa.
shane your quickest time was your 3rd run and it was 20.72
thanks for that. do you also have their vehicle and number listed too? i dont follow most of them by name. sorry
PAUL
no worries... duane was #29 and john was # 35 - they were both driving the red patrol wagon. todd was # 15 - not sure what his car was, think it was one of the blue utes...?
i think festas was a combo of both , 20.72 beers every 35 minutes.the commentry was priceless, had an absolute ball there. was it an attendance record weekend for the hill ?, so much better after dark. have to drop the 2 trees on lane 1 for the next one as crowd cant see properly. my other half is still complaining she didnt see ya festa.
not too sure if it was a record, but definately was a fair few there (also think because it's the only hill climb for the year it got more there as well?) events always seem to have bigger crowds if it's under lights. we did have record for biggest aust day... over double from last year!
commentry was good - the more they drunk the better they were sounding ...

all in all great weekend. see ya's in may when i got jigga to thrash
for your information q_ship wayne drives the silver hummer (not the yellow) and as for the radishes I don't know anything about that????
By the way it wasn't radishes they were onions and that is because there was no potatoes! And after all there was only two shot and they were shot into open space so that no one would get hit . As for the HUMMER guy got what he deserved I think that is a bit harsh and if you ask me uncalled for. I agree with other comments at least he is using it. And thats 4 w driving it won't be his last accident either.
Oh and by the way what about the guys with the fireworks up at pig pen should they have damaged their cars aswell ? No I think not ,every one was just having a bit of fun
Zuki wrote:the guy in the hummer is such a gutsy driver he drives the hummer like its a different 4wd, if i ever owned a hummer i wouldn't be putting it through the tracks he did over the weekend.
he will probly try and claim the smashed in sill and side steps on insurance thats what he told me and dad.
cheers heath
Well if i owned a hummer (have no desire to own a hummer) i would use it like it was intended ,fitting rocksliders and other protection as i have learnt any other car needs before tackling the harder stuff.I hate it when people buy 4wd's and don't use them,use it or lose it i say.
And if he was to claim it on insurance what business would that be of anyone elses as many things are covered inside a 4wd park
THE GRASS MAY BE GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE BUT YOU STILL GOTTA MOW IT.
i have the video of the 60 series being swamped in the pigpen

quote="Stoive"]the pigpen went off!
did anyone get pics of my submarine that sat night? i sacrificed a diff for your entertainment! it shat the pinion out on the way home, but i knew what i had coming for me.
i really want the pics of the stump flexing, where the hummer busted it's sill
i went back the nect day to see exactly what we were driving through...
nothing stops the old girl with that snorkle.
there is videos on youtube too, search: 40 series pigpen[/quote]
yeah the hummer busted a CV, talked to him yesterday he came into work(tjm) believe it or not it still costs less even with mods than half of the new 4x4's on the market, good on him 4 using it for what they were built 4, and i think he also mentioned something bout sliders coming

Just want to make sure what with all the BS around these days. Is it ok to post pics of some of the action we saw at LCMP over the Oz day weekend even if we don't know them but you can ID the vehicle (ie number plates)
I am contacting members that I have pictures of and I'll email them and then they can post them themselves if they want to.
I thought about buying a Hummer
But I figured I just buy a big gold chain
And hang it around my Patrol instead
That way I still have a real 4x4
And still get people to "Look at Me"

Where possible i like to blank out the number plates on other vehicles. some will say not to bother but other than tracking down the owner of EVERY vehicle, taking some precautionary measures won't hurt.
