Rallywoods/Akka's Welly Anv weekend 2011

Got home from the recovery about 10 minutes ago, with one of the recovery trucks having a small issue in the morning (no fuel coming out the injector pump) we headed for Taz01's truck... we managed to get cut our way through to his truck after about 2 hours of hard chainsawing and track clearing, then dragging it out of the creek on to flat land (about 1/2 an hour to move about 50 meters) only to find out that he had broken a CV...

While they fixed that we went to sort out the electrical issue... unable to work it out we towed it about three quarters of the way out when it dawned on the owner... shutdown wiring on the injector pump.. bypassed the wiring plug and she fired up.. we are all mobile again! (Thank god cos my truck wasn't liking the 3 tonne it was pulling up hill!)

As for the cost of this recovery you are all thinking about... well it cost him NOTHING!why you ask? cos Kiwi4x4 don't charge for recoveries, we do it because we have mud running through our vanes... and we enjoy doing what we do!

Cheers for the help today guys even though it wasn't my truck being recovered, it shows the comrade we have within the Wellington area and we are always willing to get anyone out of the shyt.

If taz01 charged every truck ive seem him recover he could probably retire

All in all it was an awesome trip. Learnt heaps about winching, towing, tree felling, and nearly going belly up.

Taz:
How big is that hole?"
Alex:
"Yeah taz that hole is pretty big, um we're about to put the back left in it, oh shizen houser" (grips Jesus bar until knuckles go white)
Taz:
"Are f*#k it, lets see what happens - oh no, here we go..."
Malcolm:
"arrrhhhhh" (thump thump thump - as he is running out of the way)
Taz:
"Now thats what I call cocking a leg!"

I've seen at what he laughingly calls "Work". This lead me to believe that he HAD retired!!!
