red90 driver Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Many thanks to Matt and team for putting on a good event at a site that has not seen a winch since 2006.... Nice to drive on terrain that has not been played to death, and will not be touched again until next year. Big site, and I don't expect to drive on any of the areas used today next time!! And thanks also to Baggy & crew for the BBQ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boothy Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I was struggling all day getting grip and put it down to the old Simex's I'm running (didn't have time to change em'), then at 2.30 found out the centre diff was not engaging and i had done the full day in 2WD, But a cracking site, bit risky in places and parking was not good, but good day and superb weather, lost my bottle a bit on punch 13 when the rope broke 3 times on a horrible long risky punch and all I could see was 13, bit like the Omen. Great day thanks to all concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
