If anyone is heading to woodhill again in the next few weeks and feels like leading a total newbie around giz a holla. Should have the truck ready by the end of this weekend. Doing some boots and other little maintenance parts tomorrow/sunday.

I've been to woodhill once in my company navara and was a little scared to break it, so no real experience. However the trail around the trees up by the paintball end was pretty nice in a stock D40 with muds.

When you say on patrol does that mean helping people like me who get stuck/lost?

It is definitely happening, being Run by Outkast 4x4 in conjunction with the park itself. If you check out Polaris 4wd Park on Woodhill all the info should be on there. But if you don't have facebook here it is here:

$45 entry
6pm start (you can arrive from 4pm though)
Bring some spare change for sausages, coffee, cold drinks etc
All tracks open, finishes at 11pm

Hey all. Thinking about going to woodhill on the 20th july in my jeep wrangler, 2inch lift, 32s, and a mates possibly if he can get time off work in his patrol, 33s and dunno about lift size.

Both pretty inexperienced id guess youd say. Was wondering if anyone who knew the place would be keen on showing us around. Coxy or 00falcon im sorta looking in your direction here :lol: .

I got no problem with driving to my ability, specially with someone to pull me backwards if needed. But it's more the getting lost exploring side I'm worried about.


Also thanks for the invite cray. But I'm moving house on the weekend of the 12th

Hi All

We are going up with some work folk this weekend and I would like to hire some handheld radios to communicate with the trucks that have 5w onboard radios. The place I am going to hire them from has asked me the frequency so they can program them I am a total noob at this and have no idea. Can someone shed some light on what I need to tell the hire company.
