Weather was far better than the 1st mudfest, good to see there was the token roll for those that have no farkin idea why a lifted truck is more unstable :lol: if that was you and you are offended, funny navi jumped out and quickly took a pxt :mrgreen:
I thought stacks (exhausts) were for the southern states of america, sadly they have made it to NZ :cry: ) Good to have a place where you can 2wd donut till your hearts content :mrgreen:
Highlight had to be Jonno's turboed LJ50 8)

good for a laugh
that yellow zuk with tractor tyres had about 50" shackles and a double cab hilux had about 5" blocks, each to their own

tidy bar work on a couple hiluxs, shit load of surfs

and who owns that red 4 door terrano with 12 spoke rims, seemed to go hard and he was thrashing it, was waiting for the front end to pop
