They did good!! lol - Steve (04OFF) and myself were already up top, so we had all six cars get through - apart from dhuck (and only because Bec was crook so he took it easy) everyone was unlocked on a fairly advanced section of track - most cars had small lifts (2") and all terrains only, but still managed to get through where many others had failed - it was a credit to them and their vehicle!!Quote:

Steve's car was against a fenceline slightly left of the top of their track as they were coming up it, and by nothing other than sheer good fortune, he decided to move his car further up the track as our guys were coming up. Lucky he did, as the last cruiser (apparently on his first venture out as another in their group told me - no lift, road terrains, no experience) was absolutely flat stick coming up the chicken track and when he got to the top, couldn't stop, hit the anchors and did a massive, uncontrolled slide straight into where Steve's car was parked, missing the fence by about a foot. This was much to the delight of the fellow cruiser onlookers who thought he was "uber cool" for what he had done. It was very uncool as far as we were all concerned as we had a bunch of kids with us, they had a bunch of kids with them, and this goose driving had 3 young kids in the back of his cruiser!! Steve's car would have been a write-off no doubt about it had he not moved it.
Proof that there is such a thing as a 'short neck goose'. Had to be there I guess, but it was that type of stupidity that sees people get injured, or worse.
Thanks for the day out scotty. I had a great day. I wanted to stay another day and do more wheeling with you guys. but I didnt expect it would take us a day to do 2 tracks
Here is a couple of pics of me stuck at the test track which is an extreme creek run the water at that crossing reached the pedals in the ute. I also dented the door sill getting skull dragged out. oh well.. at least there is a good memory behing that dent...... and the bent tray....... and the broken radius arm bush.....and the bent exhaust.
in my defence everyone had to get winched up that bank lol
Wow what a great weekend it was.
Thank you Scotty for all the hard work you put in organising it.
It was great meeting everyone and I can now put names to faces.
A big thumbs up to both Dhuck and Scotty for the help given on some of the more difficult sections of the tracks.
Yep that looks really well an truely stuck stuckQuote:
