Re: Welly Trips June 08 to August 08
the 10hr track is boring so not that one, the 24hr track is just stupid because its bog after bog, but the staircaise and rollercoaster are good

x2 but correct me if I'm wrong, would they have to be limited numbers, wouldn't that track be best suited to lighter riggs and or very well equipped riggs
I would be very interested in this trip, even as a co-driver. A good drive but requires experienced drivers in the mix

Correct Bubba, you only want about 5 trucks 6 TOPS! and very experienced drivers who have full self recovery gear, also be warned that there is the chance of roll-over.Bottom of the staircase has big deep holes and ruts now.
Damage should be expected and LWB trucks will have fun getting up the rock-garden, just ask Sadam and Curley12! clothes coming of left, right and centre


Edit point: lighter trucks not really, also not to be a kill joy or anything, but permit needed due to it being in the Aka's... blah blah blah...

Re: Welly Trips June 08 to August 08
should do a vid night one night of 4wheeling??? i have a pile of old vids here of dad in his LWB patol doing most of the tracks in the akas, alot of them on 33's and with the old motor. Also a vid of a fun trial down at aotea over 10 years ago (nissan on 30's
). it was alot different back then.
But the catch is that I need a camera capable of video8 to transfer them to computer as ours has haddit

Ill sus out a trip in the akers. Mitch get your dad to get us the key and a map might be a good idea to and i can sort the rest.

Re: Welly Trips June 08 to August 08
but there should be rules,
if something like a nissan u need at least 1 locker preferably both, and a winch that you can pull youself out with heaps and it doesnt get hot. good tyres preferably 35 min
something like zuki then your cool!!!!! so as long as its light only a which is needed unless you can drive prity much everything
i think thats fair but someone is probably going to have a go at that so thats just what i think, i duno, thats all

As any good navi knows doddzee, the dumbass in the drivers seat could not do it without the brilliant chap sitting next to him.
