Not sure I am going to have my roll hoop and back stays done by the 1st. Can I run it without in A+ again like I did at the Thames round?

Cheers,

Matt is it a hardtop roof or softtop. If the roof is a hardtop I dont see a problem if it it softtop then it will need a rollover bar minimum

Hard top - sort of! Same as I used at thames and at the first round. There was a pic of it on that thread somewhere.

It's all factory with the steel roof, doors, screen etc but the factory fibreglass tailgate / liftback bit has been taken off.

I'm sure you remember it from the last round.

Roof, doors, windscreen etc are still ther then in my ruling that is a hardtop and therfore no additional rollover protection is required as it is as the manufacter designed it. Saying that if you do cock it up you will wish taht you had an exoskeleton on it

Any hazard I peg has the possibility of a roll even Time sections

Im suprised you get it off the truck with out falling over

[Rotazuk]

I seem to remember a hole that swallowed a landrover stationwagon

[tpft]

any time u see the guy that pegged it, put on a neck brace then u know its a roller....................


that tree saved what would have been a multipile very messy series of rolls. of course he could have taken the easy line

[tpft]

p.s last year, last year enjoyed the Whangarei round the most out of all of them, the hazzards were kool, neat property
big drive for us but going to try and make it.

Some comments should be treated with the contempt they deserve OR who's been talking out of school

Didn't realise you were having so much trouble getting on and off the truck . Maybe a set of these will help

might be best if some of us stay home after last round results bugger we will miss it. weather has come right

[muddymatt]

Well what a waste of time that was

Drove like a total idiot on the first two hazards and broke a front cv getting to the third! Back on the A-frame and came home.

Not a happy bunny this afternoon. No-one to blame but myself I knew the boot was split and just hadn't got round to changing it. I guess I lost the grease and maybe picked up a stone as it was binding up before it broke.

Better luck next time..........
