From what I can make out it was pretty much the first track, they went in the way we came out but I describe rocky track to him and he said it wasn't that one, he said it was sloshy clay stuff with some boulders in places. I don't think it was from lack of experience they just got caught out on a track when the rain came down and it just turned to s#$%. One lost brakes, another wouldn't start anymore, he nearly burnt out his 12000lbs warn and fully drained his batt, they are going back in to try and get the rest of the cars out if the conditions are better.
I am so glad we got out of there when we did.
