The contractor has finished the 2 drag strips, all we got to do now is add water and horsepower.

Image
we may not have to add much water, we just about lost the digger here
Image
The Volley Ball court should be a giggle.
Image
The kids and bigger kids mud slide, MudFest style. Just add water and a Polyethylene ramp.

Hey guys, I just realised that the NZPC vs NZV8 Drag Combat event is on the same day as this, so traffic could possibly be quite heavy.

Just thought I should give y'all a heads up :D

Great to meet you Gary :D
Thanks for letting us in to have a little play.
I had a good look around the 2 paddocks that are going to be used.
The drag strips are a bit uneven but add some water and some trucks won't get far.
We had a look around the "test track" and the mud hole there is cool, but this area won't be used as they don't want it hacked up.
We have put forward some suggestions for other hazards in full view of the spectators 8)
As this event may turn into an annual event some of the hazards will evolve over time and they will keep getting added to.

Where else can you go and pay $20 odd dollars and hack up some peat paddocks with some swamps thrown in for good measure :twisted:
Though it was dry today, a pump will be adding water to it most of the week.
Looking forward to meeting more ORE'ers and having a good wholesome play in some mud and swamp.

Now, the footage.
First run on track 1 was a fail :oops:
Second run was on off road pressures and more speed (that's the ticket)
The clay waterhole will be out of bounds.
At the end it shows where it is in relation to the track.

Enjoy :P


Cheers,
I keep looking for the loose nut behind the wheel, but I can't find it!!

Nice 8)
Just what we ordered :D
Those holes and mounds are right where the spectators will be hanging out.
Perfect Gary.
Can't wait.
Have a few tasks to complete and shed some weight.
