[Jerry]

I doubt i'll have the truck going by then, quite busy at present. do you know where i can get a sencond hand turbo fairly cheap?

[Jerry]

you can probably borrow a truck for the practical part,

Has Turoa got a spare one?

[cool__bananas]

so who is suposed to be the teacher at this?

[Jerry]

are you actually turning up for this one

[Sadam_Husain]

Its a few months off but I'm sure I'll be there for this one Jerry

[Bubba]

so who is suposed to be the teacher at this?

For that matter who took the last one?

Well Taz01 showed everyone how to get stuck


Then Beer-cruiser flew to the rescue to show people how to tow


While the ladies looked on with dreamy eyes at the masterfull way the boys recovered Taz01 from out of the mud


Success at last


Sadam was there making sure that the recovery was done correctly


For no reason a hot chick turned up


So you see it was a case of those who have a few clue's showing those who don't the basic's.
I would hate to have someone who has never done a recovery think that you just attach a stop to a towball and take off at a million miles an hour

[Jerry]

maybe he could go to the next one and find out for himself

i pm him but got no reply, not sure if a ct-20 will fit my truck, it currently has a ct-12.

[Bubba]

That is why I asked who was doing the training? It appears nobody is willing to answer, why is that?

If somebody feels that they have the driving/teaching/leadership skills and to run training days, why can't that somebody speak up and say "I am running it and I welcome questions"

[Jerry]

We've had this discussion before BUBBA, and you have seen training schedule at MARK's recently and thought it was really good. as for the facilitators I Initiated the training days and kicked off the towhook lecture and snorkel lecture, other experienced ORE Assn members assisted and took over sections, . the training is equal to or better than what other local clubs are offering and is just an introductory session.

Not sure what your point is as we are running the optional NZQA certificates for those who want official training. I will be refining the "course notes" prior to this one anyway. Why are you not passing similar comment at the training days held down south as these are similar in format and they have no issues.

For a noob?
1. What spec truck is required for this...
2. Is membership of a club required?
3. Where is Rallywoods located?

2. Is membership of a club required?
Nope this is just a forum thing not an Assoc training day

3. Where is Rallywoods located?
Up Moonshine/Bulls Run Road

[Jerry]

Another prime example today of why these should be run. We watched in horror as someone attempted to recover a wagon by using the winch rope as a strop and also trying to snatch him out sideways with it . Dodn't realise that Tony could move so fast or that Jerry could run that quickly in his gumboots Won't even mention the trailer shackels as recovery gear
Needless to say they were stopped before anyone was harmed and shown the correct and safe methods for vehicle recovery

You might want to get Jerry to have a word with the Wgtn AOS Squad about getting some hooks put on their Patrol so its a bit easier to savvage when its sunk in the river

[turoa]

I heard jerry was going to try and tow someone out with his newer POS today. Problem was he had no towhooks?

Don't even get me started on that one, after my run in with the police when the rangy shit itself on the side of the motorway

x2 to what both have said It was a good day, but after one of them keep on getting his wheels off the ground when he is going down the hill side ways they do need to come along and can be shown a safer way to 4 wheel cheers abbo (ps thanks for the play )

It was one of those get in as quick as possible and stop them before we all have to start diving for cover to avoid the flying towhook/ steel winch cable/ shackel moments

[Jerry]

Yep well thats why we have them .... with the optional NZQA training if people want a bit of paper thingy

[Weemsy]

BEER (for after the days driving of course)

How much interest is there in a training day up napier way?

[Weemsy]

hi jerry,
not sure, there are a couple of clubs up this way and plenty of 4wd'ers so im would think it would get enough attention.
