Tough Tracks Round Two June 7 and 8

[Dee]

110mm sounds like a fair bit...

that's what i was thinking!

should be nicely dried up by the weekend.

Dude that's good news! It's bad enough trying to get a truck in there let only when the place is full of water! That first hill with the wash out just after the gate is BAD!

Yeah good point. just throw ya claws on the rear of the truck for the trip out, she'll be fine.

although, last time i was there after rain, i thik it was the day after theyd gotten 70 or 90mm or something, the roads seemed quite fine. I was just commenting that I think wet rock makes for great driving/comp spectating!
But the best thing was no dust. the dust was an absolute killer over expo weekend...(albeit im in a soft top)...

As stated by Landcruiser, they change for a tow car (4x4) because it will probably be used around the park.

Crap, we never drive it around, its part of our camp, if I have to pay, trucks have to pay because they serve the exact same purpose.

COMPETITORS
- no charge for camping from Saturday through til Monday
- only the competitor vehicle gets free entry into park
- if competition vehicle is towed, then the tow vehicle also gets free entry IF:
. - there is no one else in the vehicles apart from the driver and navigator; and

thats a shame champ.
how did you snap a Tcase in 2 on the way to the track??
were you on the limiter scotty?

[MissDrew]

were you on the limiter scotty?

When isn`t he

[sloshy]

were you on the limiter scotty?

When isn`t he

I'd say it was farked from tuff truck.

[sloshy]

The only real problem I saw was how many attempts some trucks would have at the same obstacle and excessive wheel spin.
Even I had 3 decent attempts at the end of track 2 and then got told I still got another one even though I was in the same spot, was surprised about that.

Not naming any trucks but one at the end of track 2 had about 6 attempts in the one spot
