Oi! Me too!

[Bitsamissin]

Well if it rains the JT's and the winch cable will have to do.............
Looking at the start point the first track will most likely be the Devils Staircase anyone driven that lately ??
I've heard stories

[Drafty]

Curlys track also had bunting on it on the weekend.

[Bitsamissin]

Well my tips are :-
Curly's Tk
Curly's Revenge
Devils Staircase
Jacksons Break
Eagle's Dare
Vic Range (including winching up the ledge)
Rocky Tk (of course)
Paul Link Tk (going up)
Cockpit Creek
Sams Hut
Aeroplane Tk
Campsite Tk
Y Track
Glenburn Tk (side options for modified)
Fenceline Hillclimbs
I heard the Steps ain't in it.
Cheezy's dead right, a sniff of rain and it will be EXTREMELY interesting
Could be going up and down several of these throughout the event.
Any other tips Joe.......................

There was bunting on a lot of the tracks but I think you covered the well known ones Frank but im sure there will be some surprises that we didnt expect, like Juzza said 'Cheeky bastards in that club of yours Bitsa'.

[hottiemonster]

so whats the go with spectators?

[Juzza]

Just a quick 1 to say good luck and safe driving to all you Outer Limits members competing on the weekend, see you all there!

[Britswed]

Well its 6 am checking emails before leaving Driving down to Mexico today so will be staying at the Motel in Narbethong tonight.

So for those i dont know come and say hello Blue 4 door Rangie(exactly like Steve Fowlers) NSW rego & my name is Mal

Cheers All and good luck & safe trip

Mal

[Bitsamissin]

Yep no worries Juzza, no doubt we will all catch up saturday morning.

[LOCKY]

ITS RACE DAY

[Bitsamissin]

Well I just got home................
Busted a tie rod on stage 2 on a very steep hillclimb and that was the end of the Poojabber. Worse thing was someone forgot to engage my winch after unspooling it (another vehicle at the top was also helping to winch) and when I started winching (same time as the other guy) I suddenly realized what was going on, before I could grab the radio the cable was pulled off the drum
Took 2 vehicles in tandem to pull me out and I felt bad holding up the guys below but there was nothing I could do.
Locky was out at the end of stage 1 (broken gearbox mount and trashed rim). Drafty was having water pump drama's but I think they got it sorted and kept going.
As we left the rain started so things will be VERY interesting, met a bloke in a Rangie on the way out who blew his centre diff (very unusual )
I'm positive there will be more carnage stories.

[Bitsamissin]

2 more.

[hottiemonster]

not very good news frank. maybe next year?

is someone allowed to list the exact route of pajero or not as of yet?

[Bitsamissin]

We still have all the notes and Steve is going to plot them all for future trips.
There were some ripper tracks that I haven't driven before but they would be pretty much undriveable if wet.
It's a piss off that a $60 part stopped us (I'll be packing spares next time) but shIt happens eh.........................

did u bring any spares along, or nothing at all?

[Bitsamissin]

I had spares, belts, coil, idler arm etc but no farken tie rod ends but it didn't matter as the winch cable was ripped off the drum (cable came out of the battery lug that is held on by a hex bolt) so I couldn't have kept competing anyway.
