GET DIRTY, FITZY.

Any other offers like this?? I either need 33's or 38's. If have to play with the big boys then bigger tryes would be great. But if i can sneak some 33's on, well i might be half pie competitive

BTW How come your not using them???

Are you not entering??

Go Mike,

We can go and watch, without getting too dirty, and bits of our trucks may be doing the event. That sounds pretty cool to me

SupraLux · Post by **SupraLux** » Mon Jul 24, 2006 12:09 pm

Now why didn't I think of that... loan out all the good bits of your truck to others then you can blame their driving for not getting anywhere :lol:

Steve

rokhound · Post by **rokhound** » Mon Jul 24, 2006 12:15 pm

You got it Steve.

What would you like to borrow? :lol:

SupraLux · Post by **SupraLux** » Mon Jul 24, 2006 12:21 pm

You... to drive :lol:

That should be funny... no wait - I don't have the exo yet, or the steel plate armouring...

Cancel that last request

Steve

Not my thing... I hate trials rules... you need the steering lock of a kids pram to get round...

Have had to withdraw too

( ... donation to the Sheffield VFB). Now before all the knockers start (goodmorning Bushpig), might I just remind you that I was all locked and loaded for the initial planned date. Recent unplanned purchase of a new motor at not inconsiderable expense (breaking it gently in stages to the handbrake ! ), and eventually convincing insurance that the intercooler on my replacement engine is factory prescribed, means I now literally can't afford the risk

.

See it as my duty to further the ranks of the beer-crew support team though

.

SupraSurf · Post by **SupraSurf** » Tue Jul 25, 2006 12:28 pm

So Kev who's gonn wanna borrow your tyres

Leithfield · Post by **Leithfield** » Tue Jul 25, 2006 1:16 pm

For a small donation to the beer-crew support team inventory, exchange of rubber so I'm not left sitting on blocks, and understanding

that in the unlikely event of damage the tyre(s) will be replaced within the week, I am more than happy to help out any ORE member who can fit.

P.S. Peter Vahry has first option :wink:

PeterVahry wrote: Much of NZ is prone to developing deep ruts and ever increasing tyre sizes are not helping. They may be helping your ego but little else. The suggestion by the NZFWDA conference of a 33 inch limit was to start clubs considering the idea. There may well be a place for bigger tyres in some areas or in competitions but are they really needed for most places?
