Mate, I've been craving some action shots from these holidays. Thanks goodness!!!

Bet your mate is gutted about his engine :(

How come you truck still looks clean in the last few photo's?? Looks like the track was wet enough.

Dont know why but the below photo made me think of Arnie in the film Commando, look out he's comming to get you :lol:

Trucks look clean, because it was pissing down the whole time, and the half a dozen massive water holes that we had been through.
I'll try and upload a vid with the rain and the holden v6 death rattle in it

Yeah, i started building one out of a prado front diff, need to flat deck the hilux first to make some more room for it though.

We were wondering how much power we could run through the pto drive before it implodes but it doesnt seem to be a issue, already pump about 45kw through it now with the hydraulic winch, and have seen one of the other challenge trucks with a god winch on it drive his flat out through the same set up with out pto problems
