What an awsome place! I loved it and wanna go back again and try harder at the main bog hole. I reckon i can do it next time. Just need to hit it faster if thats possible.

There was a wide assortment of cars there ranging from hilux's, cruisers, patrols, sierra's, jeeps, and even a X3 BMW :shock: :shock:
He was even having a go at driving the river and the ruts at the main track.

Next time we will have to let everyone have more notice. If these days get more turnout they said they will be a regular thing.

P.S. Shakes where are the pics???

C'mon shakes post a link to the vids. i wanna see them. Didnt think anyone got through that bog. All the others were easy but this one claimed every vehicle that i saw attempt it. Several cruisers and patrols were dragged out by the dozer.

I really believe that driving schools give high class training which is helpful for every driver. i took training and got Truck license QLD. Now i have confidence to take truck to any where in any direction.
