Right MIKE has just advised his availability for this and agreed on the 30th of August, may as well make this an overnighter as well and go for a play in the MUD on the Sunday, and people are welcome to go in on the Friday night as well. those not doing the NZQA part are welcome to come along too.
BOOKING FORM WILL BE UP SOON
Rallywoods fees will apply as well as NZQA Course fees for those doing this part.
we may see MIKE's POS Rover in action

I like your thinking, but I need to secure the garage before it's full of who knows what that isn't my stuff. Also she just let me buy a "new" XJ when really we should have more important things to spend money on, so she has some moral high ground just now.
Don't panic FEN, there is a general training day coming up after this and the NZQA one will be run again after this when there is enought interest again. Look out for some upcoming shiny Aka's trips soon....

Cool - we've bought a place over the hill, but once I get a second recovery hook on the XJ and fit some decent tyres (are Pirelli Scorpion's as bad as I think they look?) then hopefully I can actually get my backside in gear and join in.
Edited to say they are Scorpion ATRs I think... Why someone went from 225/70x15 to a 30x9.5 flotation tyre with such a road bias I don't understand.

Will do. I found some info on where to mount the second one on an Aussie forum someone linked to in the Jeep section, but it looks like there is a bit of strengthening to do and it sounds like just using the one it already had could twist the shell in a heavy recovery.
