D9OSV Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Filipe,If big tires in a small and narrow river bed is a disadvantage why not allow them and let it be my problem to get through. I thought you would not allow them because it would be an advantage? Would love to come and compete Stef Cos' the rules say so....... The rule is '37, Most 38.5 Boggers measure a true 37' inch anyway. They are pretty relaxed about the tyre rule, if you can force on there tyre gauge you can run However one crew was not allowed to run as there tyres did not fit the gauge, and expensive mistake to make.

steffUK Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Jim... because the rule say so... last time I heard this was in Nuernberg and a long time ago and it was the same bs response Did the rule say that every UK competitor is banned from steering to the right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D9OSV Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Would that be the slight mishap were you went end over end before barrel rolling twice and finally lying on your side...? Or the one where you tried to push a tree through the side of your head That was a superb roll, in fact it was so good that Gary Zoller tried to copy you later in the day but the judges only award half marks as he only barrel rolled with no end over end I'm sure he will try harder next time Filipie you would have laughed yourself silly Good effort Mate B) Jim Ps: No body was seriously hurt making this offroad comedy only wounded pride and and some bent metal work. Pps: Very impressed with the cage, hardly a mark. 10 out of 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gustopax Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Hi Adrian, It was just for fun, an 4x4 marathon of 3 hours! AS you can see, it all about mecanical resistance of cars instead of tech stages!! (thats why they almost all are Nissan GR!!) We've started without lockers, we burned a new wich engine and punch a tire!!!! Well, but it was fun!!! At the end, the classification doesn't matter! What's really important is to win!!! (and we all won something... New colleges, more experience, lol) Some pics more (hope nobody gets pi** because of posting these photos here...) Cheers Agostinho PS: nevertheless, WE COULD TURN RIGHT!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
