You mean like this Ruben :lol:

Cheers,


Have to wonder what type of tow rope was been used when the Suzuki was trying to tow the Hilux? Didn't look to have any stretch in at all. At least you can see the rope stretch a bit when the Terrano hooked up on it, but that was obviously a different rope.


the first rope they used was a normal tow rope, you dont see that bit, but then we got a snatch strap on it afterwards as soon as I saw what was happening.

Well I will be keen to come too. haha

I have to get as many trips in before I retire the Terranosurus.
Cheers,


And replace it with a new one? Or a Lada? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Sounds like you got a good event on your hands now Louis, with quite a few trucks by the sounds of it. You should plan some little stages and trials or something.......im looking forward to it !! Its rather embarrassing seeing my Hilux struggle in those vids, no muds on though. Not as bad as Bens Hilux getting pulled by a Zuk though lol......

I can feel a fee coming on :lol:

Yeah Iwas just going to say there is going to be a huge turnout, which would be good to do a small like laurie sansons/ Trails type of thing like Hilux Dan said which would make it more fun, it is something to think about.

Lincoln was thinking of doing a trials at some stage. So I don't know if it would be suitable to merge the two?

Oh, and what does Ben's truck look like now?

Seriously... Numbers are ridiculous! Roughly 24 interested trucks! :shock: :shock:

Oh, and in regards to Ben's truck: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: Just a tad different :lol: :lol:

Ok, so Lincoln will hold a separate trials day. So we will basically just have fun bits of competition, doing what my Mum has described as a "Mudkhana".

We will also have just the normal driving round and getting stuck. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Oh. and watch out, somebody may even get towed out by a stock-standard Lada. If they forget their muddies :lol: :lol:
