Layto....

There were a number of details, most of which revolved around the engineers certificate. For further info, see Germo on the weekend.

The hoops have been jumped through, and the car is now ready to roll.

oh hell yeah its ready to rumble!!

sorta.

have to put welded rear back in, window nets, bat isolator, fire ext, winch switch, winch negative.

but hey thats all minor stuff.

its going to be a great weekend and I'm getting a bit nervous!

saw a few guys heading out that way, when I was travelling home from work! I should be there about 1 - 1:30, just in time to scrutineer!!!!

heres what it looks like now.

enjoy ashley!

Nic

tim's thing is still a 1.3

But isn't in tuff truck

Zook is looking good mate

I have a bunch of pics when I went wheeling with Mick before he sold it to you Did he tell you it was only driven to Church on Sundays by a little old lady ?

ah nice pics!

yeah just got home about an hour ago. its nice to be so close to a comp!


didn't do too badly for a first outing. equal 7TH

equal first for mystery night stage and bog hole. picked up a bit of cash for that!

only broke one cv. on frame twister
pope front shaft apart, bent xfer arm, busted xfer mount, bent rear track bar on the all terrain!

100 pionted mine wirraba.

got 85 on rocky horror because of a time out while winching the water fall and bonus line at once. so that plan didn't work. ie get 100 plus 50 bonus and would only have lost 5 points for a reverse and 25 for a winch!

of course if I had of done this better and that better, I would have gotten alot higher.
but I was wanting a top ten and pulled an equal 7. not bad for the smallest truck there! and my first drive in 18 months

ps thats all tech, so no winging

ps ps if anyone has pictures of my rig can you message them to me or email me at a_germon@yahoo.com
because I couldn't take pictures while driving
enjoy ashley

top effort! Il have to go down and compete one day but like you said its good to be close to the event and Im not How many other zooks in the top ten?

Well done dude!!!!!!!

Loved the thought that went into what you were doing as opposed to pedal to the metal stuff

Oh and get some wheel spacers!!!!!

I was very impressed!!!!!!

athol came 4th.

and zookboy in overkill creation with sam keck driving (take a breath) was in there too I think

thanks, i cant afford pedal to the medal, it breaks too much stuff and you also end up with the car in the wrong spot.
but when I got stuck on the frame twister I got a bit angry and ended up breaking a cv!

yeah the tyres on the springs got me a few funny looks and had the commentators confused all weekend, one second they think its the cvs, the next they think its the springs!!!

I have an ifs hub kit, just didn't have time to put it on the car!

enjoy ashley

hm it does look a little narrow are they standard yota 8" rims with no spacers?

congrats dude

u drove that thing really well and smart

athol 4th
germo 7th
paul/sam 9th

Congrats.
Very tidy looking rig.
did you run those mtr's in the comp or something else?

Was on MTR's. Great drive mate. You deserved a good position. I got a fair few pics of ya rig, will get them off the camera and orgaise to send them to you.
Layto....

Highest placed registerable truck???????????

thanks guys.

have had time to think about weekend. and I'm pretty happy with the result. but could always do better.

have a few things to sort out. xfer ring needs to go in. plus a flat belly so I don't get stuck as much and it will winch a bit easier!
the rear track bar needs fixing so I don't have to take it easy, and some stronger cv's as well!

but the car felt very stable and had enough power to do what it has too!

am looking forward to more time in the bush now!!
so redzook, layto and anyone else close, let me know when you guys are going out and I'll come for a drive!!

we ll be goin wheelin soon man heaps keen for the rest of the year

Man you had a great weekend good to see a simple car in the top ten. Was good to see the tcase that you had cable tied in held up. Good to finally meet you I cant wate for the zook weekend so we can get some zooks driving the frame twister bonus line

Mate you had a blinder congrates you thought about what you were doing and it worked for you. You deserved the position you came.
Just goes to show you don't need the biggest truck and spend the most to be competitive.
SAM

Considering that it was the first real time you've driven that chariot, I'm stoked for you, you certainly did well, especially against alot of the high capital units.

Time to bring it up the farm.....we'll have a bash.

Heres a few simple shots....





Cheers, and congrats,

Drewfus

So how much do you change from street to comp setup?
