Whose it the Union Jack 90 trayback? Fantastic looking truck

Shame about the back stays

Very quick td5 motor belonging to Jim Marsden at Gigglepin. Will post some video of him when I can figure out how to do it.

Simon, I think you will see Bathtub at the Tay Trophy next.

Hi Dan,

Event format superb.....

Very fast techincal sections with some old ball stuff................Great :D

Lots of lovely people and plenty of rain and banter in huge volumes.

Car was wonderful, covers the ground well and climbs superb.

Did find one weak point, the A frame :ph34r:

Sheared the Bl**dy thing mid section and then promptly removed the rear propshaft.......... :rolleyes:

Bugger! That ended our chances :lol:

I know who came first and second although i'm not sure about third, so if i'm wrong please forgive me.

First place:

Chris Jones and Tom (Car: Disco 200 on 101 axles with 38.5 tractor tyres and hydro steer, Also topped the RTI ramp, top lads and already talkng about Ladoga)

Second place:

Charlie Walton and Dan Fabb (Car: D90 TD5 Brilliant drive from these two, really will be ones to watch)

Third:

Pete Whitman (Bathtub) and Jeff. But i really am not sure, so sorry if you were third and not Pete........ :ph34r:

(Pete also drove to the top of the RTI ramp, with Portals, let the banter begin :lol: )

Comment of the weekend went to Jerry Thurkston at the RTI ramp when he told us all Quote "I hold the current British record in this disipline" two minutes before Pete and then Chris drove to the top of the ramp.....

Very funny :D

Anyone looking for a good well run event, that has speed and lots of steep winches you need look no further, this rocked

Jim :)

Ps: Lewis ?

You might be, but I won't be going to that, too far.... Plus used up damn near all my holiday for the week off needed for the EuroChallenge set up..

Ever thought they may be for function and not looks or cage strengthening??

Looks to me like they are for running the truck easily along trees, no doubt useful in places like the Argyll or sites like Slindon. I could be wrong though.
