Offroad-Express

The contractor has finished the 2 drag strips, all we got to do now is add water and horsepower.


we may not have to add much water, we just about lost the digger here

The Volley Ball court should be a giggle.

The kids and bigger kids mud slide, MudFest style. Just add water and a Polyethylene ramp.

Hahahahahahaha, Peat swamp

I pity those in the big trucks

Hey guys, I just realised that the NZPC vs NZV8 Drag Combat event is on the same day as this, so traffic could possibly be quite heavy.

Just thought I should give y'all a heads up

Is this what we're in for

If there is any of that at 0.22min make sure you take pics haha

Sounds like its going to be an awsome day !! " Big ups " to the organisers!! Ill definately be there .......but only as a spectator Looks like it could get messy if the weather keeps playing up.

Messy = good

Great to meet you Gary
Thanks for letting us in to have a little play.
I had a good look around the 2 paddocks that are going to be used.
The drag strips are a bit uneven but add some water and some trucks won't get far.
We had a look around the "test track" and the mud hole there is cool, but this area won't be used as they don't want it hacked up.
We have put forward some suggestions for other hazards in full view of the spectators
As this event may turn into an annual event some of the hazards will evolve over time and they will keep getting added to.

Where else can you go and pay $20 odd dollars and hack up some peat paddocks with some swamps thrown in for good measure
Though it was dry today, a pump will be adding water to it most of the week.
Looking forward to meeting more ORE'ers and having a good wholesome play in some mud and swamp.

Now, the footage.
First run on track 1 was a fail
Second run was on off road pressures and more speed (that's the ticket)
The clay waterhole will be out of bounds.
At the end it shows where it is in relation to the track.

Enjoy


Cheers,

Dosent look like there is going to be much drag racing

Not this year but we could be there for the next one (mud drag-racing) right up my alley ?

So who off here is going so we can spot the ORE'er? Add to the list

Hi guys, we have done some digger work today and smoothed out the drag strip and had some free time with digger so we have made a few issue's for you to solve, have a look at the Face Book page. cheers

Just had a look so far looking good, and on the right track.

Your doing great work Gary much appreciated.

Bring on Sunday.

Would have been bringing the comp truck down, but with a gearbox still in bits after Manukau WC it won't be together for the event

Nice
Just what we ordered
Those holes and mounds are right where the spectators will be hanging out.
Perfect Gary.
Can't wait.
Have a few tasks to complete and shed some weight.

Hi Gary,

What is the numbers so far, can we have a list?

Cheers.
