Taking last weekend off work and looking to destress I get a call form an old surf forum mate on Thursday night. Perfect timing.
Haven't been driving with him in about 6 years.
Headed out to Toolangi on Saturday afternoon to do Rocky Tk and Not much help Tk. Not much help lived up to its name, we can't get to it without taking others tracks and the weather and time won't on our side.

Suspension and tyre combo working well. All in all happy with how the patrol is coming along.

Anyone up for a quickie Friday or Saturday.

The vid seems to be in fast forward for me, lol. Sounds like the chipmunks are driving.

Pissing down rain is alway good fun. I would deflate your ETs to 18 straight up for Toolangi Mud and they will perform well mate. Enjoy.

Yeah, Took them down to 22. Did rocky first up before the rain and then spent the rest of the day pretty much cruising.

How did you find the steering ,accelleration and braking on the road.
Did you rub on the front at any time??

All good. Tappet adjustment and plugs has made the world of difference in the power delivery. Steering and braking to difference.

No rubbing as yet with theses tyres, the last set had a bit more tread on them and they rubbed on full lock.

Nah, he has sorted me out instead.

I can take it to the Magi court, but that's going to cost me another $1k and if he is a no show I then have to chase him.
