Saturday started with a winch through a ditch on S2:

No worries there, so it was off to S1:

I think Klem set one of the faster times through there.
Stage 4 turned a bit pear shaped when the new sheath on the main rope broke & jammed up, so the boys had to use the electric backup, but they got through without losing too much time:

Stage 3 was also a bit arse as the truck blew a front hub & Mike had to do some serious amounts of running to winch through a lot of the stage.

55 got through 1 more stage, then the last stage was canned, unfortunately not before Raana had bent up his steering on a stump. Another steering rod was located & installed before the night stage:

Klem set another good time on the night stage, collecting a few shrubbery souvenirs on the way:

Then it was time for a washdown & a few beers.
More later
