Ooo ! sounds like a lot of work to me .
James , Its more or less the same rules and regs format as CSW , which is excellent , and at 40 bucks a challenge is still cheap for a good days challenge ,
4x4 Adventures winch challenge ,sounds a bit cheesey though, can we not shorten it to 4x4AWC or does it have to be named for insurance reasons ?
Just a thought .

Im with Jase, It does sound a bit cheesey!

Hi,
I have a Qt one, made by Momo out of some sort of polyurthane (spelling ?). Alot stronger than others so you can hand on when the going gets tough and the spokes won't bend.
Dave does the correct boss to fit the column. See them here....

Cheers,

Andy, What does the QT one compare like size wise to the original? Untill I have sorted some Hydro steering I cant go much smaller as it's pretty heavy with bigish tyre's and lots of offset!

James, If someone has a front winch and two lockers what would they have to do to satisfy you they would not be able to use the front locker so they can compete in STD +1. Would just disconnecting the airline be enough or would they have to remove a part (say the solenoid) and leave it with you for the day?
-
Hence my vague area reply
James ok put me down as a entry, and will see how the scrutineering goes
if aggro will marshal instead,
Jim Fish & Chips + tango x 2 please
To be honnest although they had some issues with my truck I can only blame myself as the items they had a problem with were the very things I read in the regulations and chose to ignore thinking they wouldn't worry about them! If you read through the reg's (which are pretty straight forward) and make sure that everything is as they want it to be (eg, Batt' isolator, second throttle return spring, some form of deflection for exhaust, Fire extiguisher as spec' etc etc) then you wont have any problem.
As for the soft roof, Someone at seven sisters did have mesh strapped to his cage which they seem'd O.K. with so do that if nothing else!

Hi James
can you stick me and stevo down provisionally. be a good excuse for my 40th birthday bash. Steve may not be able to read this thread for a little while, he has other thinks on his mind at the mo
:ph34r:
What would it be thats on my mind then Mark? I have no idea what you could be on about
!
Any how, No provisional, we will defo' be there! We've enjoyed the past events so much I'll find a way!
-
Yes , Cracking little tool , I bought one of Snap On ,was about £12 but its got a nice wooden trim on it and comes in a leather belt pouch.
I carry it in the 90 just incase I have to cut and run.
Poor Lardy, There's no need to cut him, just run, he'll never keep up!
-
They also have a member,can't remember his name but I always remember the face
Nick and I were teamed up and Nicks V8 had died in the river we were struggling to get it out
he happened along and When I asked for a extra winch to aid recovery he just said no we are
here to win not help other people. the idiot.
Paul Wightman drove across the site and recovered The RR
and unsurprisingly still won the event.
mr competitive came 3rd or 4th! how I laughed at prize giving time
I hate it when people are like that! If I can help then I do, It aint the end of the world coz im sure one day I'll be glad of some help myself!
-
Myself and Pigster are awdc members, scrutineering!!! well they just don't like me
now what!! ok! i'll get it sorted!
it's just routine stuff
now't to worry about
I think i should enter some of your event's.....but looking at the pic's
look's like my l/rover's already involved
Ooooo!!!!! You aint getting ya handbag out again are you Adrian!
:D
-
Me and Steve are members. No worries with scrutineering...
Thats not entirely true, I am a member but the landrover won't pass! I aint telling you what it is tho coz then they will know to check it!!!!!
Na, its only the side exit exhaust they dont like but I will have to do something about that before next year coz we intend doing a few localish rounds. Their regs are a fair bit tighter than anywhere else ive been and they are much keener on checking stuff but its not really anything very difficult to sort out. Things that spring to mind (coz we failed on em before) are no side exit exhausts, 2Kg foam fire extinguisher in cab, second throttle return spring. I did have a copy of the regs somewhere but im pretty sure you can find em on the AWDC site.

Reading between the line's did someone get their quad stuck?.........Chris?...............I havn't heard about this...........Please tell more!!!!!!
-
Russ ,Is the camping in the feild to the left of the car parking area?
We prolly will come down early to pitch up ,
Prior warning to other campers , Try not to pitch your tent within 30 meteres of Shaun Harris`tent Unless you are very hard of hearing
No need for Lardy to put a tent up! We got plenty of room in the welsh team tent

I started reading through this thread and kinda got bored with the same things goin round and round. In all fairness before I got bored I did notice that some people said the winch wasn't a solutuion for them but they thought it was an excellent, well produced product. This is a credit to Gigglepin if someone from another faith can look at his product and prase it. These electric v hydro threads go round and round just like the Suzuki v's landrover, bogger v's simex etc etc. Thing is it depends what works for you. I really cant fault my 8274's, I have em front and rear and as soon as the bank balance recovers from crimbo they will both be sporting Jims twin motor conversions. Not everyones preference but they work for me. Well done Jim, another excellent product.
One question, I assume that they will require an albright (or other solenoid pack) per motor? Or will a single albright handle the current drawn by two motors?
