and some super swampers
, it may get changed to a few gravel tracks instead of farm tracks, which would be a shame....

hahaha yeah could be good fun out there, depends on how many tracks have slipped, may not be too bad these guys get good support from the land owners who will probably get out there with their bulldozers and help things out. there are a couple of rivers that may be in flood after this last week but provided the rain can hang off they might be alright come the weekend.
usually there is an alternate way round things and a lot the harder stuff for the novices and shiney trucks is optional aswell.
if i hear any thing else i will let you know up till wednesday when i head up to ac/dc
