    I think it's only a matter of time before some poor soul get's their head mashed, then something might be done about it.
    Only so much can be done on forums to alert folks to the danger but if you are not a forum member and have never been told, you are at risk without even knowing.
    Big thanks to Mudslut for that post.
    Cheers, the ferret.

    And don't I know it, but there is bound to be more sadly, and when you least expect it, it can happen sooooo quick, no time to duck for cover.
    Cheers, the ferret.

    No worries guys, I'm defiantly going to always use a weighted bag every time from now on, no matter how easy of a recovery it's "meant" to be. The answer to why I was in a Toyota, my patrol is STILL in the shop getting the new diffs put in. Coming up to a month now ;(

    Education ,education, other than forums, clubs need to stress that point no end to new members, I'm ex TLCCV and did driver awareness like everyone else. can't remember anything about TOWBALLS. I know the PREZ of 4WD VIC and will be requesting he put in bold letters a warning in any future issue of track watch, as well as the TLCCV mag. I know heaps high up in trade and Mags so will shoot an email to all. every 4x4 mag should have a warning on every page down the bottom. leave it with me. Lets say right now NO MORE DEATHS OR INJURIES
