Next purchase - a set of lockers might have been able to pull forward onto the hard and right itself - or get deeper in the

rear difflock Was quite a clever balancing act tho... had everyone fooled - did it on pupropse to show off the fantastic slide-slope ability of the MU (I hear a Tui ad coming on here )

Nah, I don't think there was anywhere to go from here but over... I have a rear locker already... and it was teetering at that point - see how much the helping hand was able to push me back over by himslef before I backed out?

The truck slipped sideways into it... needed to be a little closer to the tree, but I still think it was too chewed out to get up... no-one else did either... I just helped the marshals make the decision to change the course

And of course there is 15 minutes-odd of video of the MU going around the course, but this is the only few seconds anyone will ever see (or want to see )

I'm hearing that!! We went OK on the rest of the course but there will only be one hazard that people will see

The good thing is Steve..... at least people can see that we went real hard

got hours of the mu but only worth posting the "DOOOOOOH" moments

love the soundtrack, you may not be in the passenger side next time, although Steve said you were almost on his lap in a couple of places. Good day had by all more motivation for the bits I need to do to mine.

Ya got that right brother. We all went hard in our classes, never shied away from anything, entertained the spectators ( some of us even covered them in mud) and had a bloody good time. Need bigger ORE stickers next time or even an ORE super moded truck with centre articulation....&....&.....&......

Thanks Smokey But i thought thats what 4wding was all about!!! Who needs drugs when you can get your heart pumping like crazy driving(trying to) your truck

Oh god please tell me you don't do the drug thing, and drive like that. (or maybe that's why you drive like that )

As I have said though Jase, U put on a helluva good show my man.
Keep up the good work.
