In my defence your honour I fulled it up two weeks ago and its only been out once since then .
Thou it does explain why i thought the guage was faulty .
Good day thou , weather looked as thou it was not going to be good at the start of the day but there was plenty of sun .
First hazzard I got all of two feet before it bogged down ( hind sight read ran out of gas ) so the big hundy on that one . Interesting to see Shane balance his buggy on two wheels almost in the blues at teh end of the hazzard , alas his some could not quite do the same thing and rolled it .
Completed the next few hazzards , even the "timed stage" without a problem , well except for the large circles trying to get around the pegs . But the afternoon saw us at the hill climb stages and the zuk bogged again at teh start of the first one . Did not think it was a good idea to give it a try , if it crapped out half way it could be fun . So drove it up and put it on the trailer .
Alas I was suspisious of the fuel when I could not get it off the trailer at home and it had the indignity of being towed into the shed .
Aww well leason learned , the fuel gauge still works

Blew a rear axle on the 4th hazard so had a good day out watching
I think it's still suffering damage from the big hit that smashed the drive shaft at the ORE BBQ. I was just quietly creeping up hill a bit cross axled over a rut and it just went "ping". No massive wheel spin or huge rev's, just a gentle "ping"
Any one no where i can find two complete LJ80 axles??

had a good day. truck was playing up a bit at low RPM which made it interesting in the tight stuff and cost me a lot of points in the early stages 
..... i think it may be due to the use of a different fuel 
managed to blow the free wheeling hub clean off on the second to last stage of the day but it was worth every second of it 
see you all at the next one

Went up with Dion and did the fun trials in his 2 stroke suzuki, Had a brilliant day ,A couple of blonde moments on 2 tracks but the little Zuk kept screaming all day .Was good to catch up with Ben and a few others,Was really impressed with how Bens truck performs see him on the second to last stage take the hard option up a real bad rutted hill climb at full noise and his front hub fly of at a million mph was impressive especially when he did the last part of the hazard in 3wd .I must say after riding around in the little Zuk i have formed a lot of respect for you Zuk owners although very capable trucks the word comfortable and Suzuki should never be used in the same sentence,Give me my Nissan any day....
