    It sure was. Well what I was there for any way. My dad loved it and mum is apparently sick of him talking about it already . For some strange reason he took a liking to BA but I'll just blame that on the 15 500ml Heineken cans I had floating around in my passenger footwell afterwards

    I am truly buggered... got home at 1pm and spent a lot of it cleaning everything...

    Some real tough stuff this weekend and that night hill climb was the toughest track I have driven yet...

    All the GQ's got up under there own power it was the GU's that struggled on that hill, it was crazy at one stage getting Pickers up.

    Once momentum was lost it was really hard to get going again.

    There was a fair bit of damage sustained with me hitting a tree stump and blowing a power steering hose off and fluid everywhere...

    Andy had the most damage with Panhard, clutch slave, and a leak started from the back of the gearbox.

    I also got a stick jammed in the bead of my tyre as we were trying to leave the place as it was decided Toolangi had won this time.

    Pickers had a spring spin around into the wrong spot on the front so was making a bit of noise but after that climb he really got off easy there.

    There were a whole bunch of new blokes who were all good value and finally met Lucus and yes your dad is a good bloke (Paul).

    The short time we managed around the fire was a quiet and easy going with only a few beers before most were off to bed... all so buggered.

    Some of you will be shocked to know that Andy stepped it up to another level and helped with recoveries and even changed my tyre fro me and worked on his own car.... shock horror..

    The funniest thing was watching Andy running up the hill in the dark with a plasma rope in his hands while a 3lt GU chased him....

    Rossco as normal was not fazed one bit and never seem to be troubled... I must hurt him one day !!!

    The video does not do this hill and how steep it was any justice... had a ball and always great catching up.

    Man I am so glad but at the same time disappointed that I did not do that track.

    P.S I have some vids but for the life of me can't remember my password for google so once I figure it out I will post them.

    Forgot to mention...Kev bought his mate who had a hilux.

    We were no more than 100m entering toolangi on a 2wd track and he must of just hit a pothole which sheared the bolt straight off from the control arm...game over before it even begin, tow truck!!!

    Poor bugger, did he get back ok Kev?

    I think his yota just got scared in a convoy of patrols entering the state forest and packed it in...lol...bloody strange though how it sheared the entire bolt on a normal dirt road.
