Hamners Pucker Park anyone?

Post by petefj40 »

Over the next few days I'd Like to take the kids around Pucker Park. I've been there a couple of times before but won't go on the tracks without another truck. Anyone keen to join me n the kids? It's $40 entry a truck. Well worth it though. It's a great place for all types of trucks. I'm not looking for a big group. Some areas there are restricted. Just another truck would be cool.

I'm keen to go once you get your truck sorted. Maybe get a few trucks together for that day? But I'm busy from the 18th to the 2nd of May.
Keep in touch.

Not really Taz. No pix that do the area justice. YET. :wink:
But I did start a youtube channel for the park. A place to throw up videos of events or even just playing around on Pucker Park. :mrgreen:

Went there about 3 weeks ago,only a few bogs at that time as it was still quite dry.well be a real blast when it gets a bit more rain.
when dry most of it is quite driveable with some H2o in the picture most tracks well be a challange.There are tracks of all grades so pretty much any 4wd(with atlest MT's if wet)well have a ball :D

How's it going Euan?

Me n the partner and our 5 kids are heading up there tomorrow midday. So if anyone else wants to join us you're very welcome. Bear in mind, the fee to use the park is $40 per truck. If you pay me I'll make sure Jase, Rick or Frank (lease holders) get the coin.

See you there!

Nah. Not back in the same capacity at all mnc.. :D
And nah, nothing done to my truck. But my I can't say the same for my brothers FJ40. :mrgreen: :wink:

We'll be up in Hanmer by around midday tomorrow. Would be good to see another truck up there if anyone's keen? I hear h2olover (Jase) will be up there. We're all looking forward to it. Hopefully it won't be to dry up there.
