Weather was far better than the 1st mudfest, good to see there was the token roll for those that have no farkin idea why a lifted truck is more unstable if that was you and you are offended, funny navi jumped out and quickly took a pxt
I thought stacks (exhausts) were for the southern states of america, sadly they have made it to NZ ) Good to have a place where you can 2wd donut till your hearts content
Highlight had to be Jonno's turboed LJ50

"Hey fulla, theres probably a towhook at the chassis, dont tie the fawkin snatch strap to the top of the bullbar as thats where the most leverage is and you will bend it like this guy...... oh wait thats you "



Next are some of the club/winch trucks going for gold in 2wd, quite entertaining









And we cant forget the delightful Pixie and Nurse (Hope I got that right )

Couldn't hold my boy back from jumping in the truck with Taz and going for a ride... but Nurse and Pixie scared him

I thought I heard some funny noises coming from your truck. Hope it's not too bad

Sadly I only showed up for a short bit of viewing, but what I saw was pretty good

[J_Dub]

good for a laugh
that yellow zuk with tractor tyres had about 50" shackles and a double cab hilux had about 5" blocks, each to their own

tidy bar work on a couple hiluxs, shit load of surfs

and who owns that red 4 door terrano with 12 spoke rims, seemed to go hard and he was thrashing it, was waiting for the front end to pop
