the second to last pic above was a graded hazard so shineys could run the pegs. I only did first 7 stages but they were all pegged to the trucks present with a little sting in the end for the buggys and the like. The first roll over was driver opps, then when it looked like it was stopped it deceided to tip into the creek. didnt see the second rollover

The second roll over happened because the truck was straddling across some sheep ruts and his front wheel slipped off and it just rolled onto it roof, surprising how little damage it had for a truck with out a cage.

Thanks Overkill. I think that photo sums up the day. Still can't believe how well the truck went with AT tyres on it.

Damit! not quite a clean sheet on the Safari for a WOF this time,

ran the Saf though for a warrant this morning , wasn't too worried about it mechanically knowing all the bushes, wheel bearings, brakes and rust had been done in the last 6 months, forgot to check the bloody headlights though .. the left hand one still had 1/2 doz water droplets in it from the bath it got at the ChCh fundraser a month ago, failed me on the condensation on the inside of the glass :lol: took the bulb out and jambed a rag in there to dry the glass ... PASS! sweet!! front locker here i come :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
