Offroad-Express

Hi All ,i am running a trip into Woodhill on the 1st May for a couple of clubs i belong to ,the plan is to start at midday on the Sat (1st) continue on till around 5-530 pm all meet up at the lookout for a bbq ( if you want anything else apart from sausages byo) then when its dark do a night run till 10,30 -11pm ,the cost is $55 per truck if your keen to join in drop me a line .
Cheers Steve

I'm keen

As you know Steve, I'm there with bells on!

Cheers, Simon.

what kind of tracks will you be doing? is panel damage likely? suitable for a shiney?

The tracks that we will be doing will be suitable for all types of trucks the tracks cater for the shiney through to tracks that need twin diff locks and a winch ,the plan is to split into a couple of groups the shineys go one way the tuffer trucks go the other ,quite frankly unless people have a brain fart or do something stupid there is no reasonon to do damage .as an example John Reid from 4x4 Action mag is more than likely going to be there in a brand new patriot jeep . steve

Hi Steve,

I will be keen as I want to do a night run.

Shame, missin' a good afternoon and evening. Could of introduced you to all the "clubbies". Next time, ay.
Cheers.

Too bad I wont be making it. well it doesn't look likely. I need to get the engine in my Mazda and all wired up etc. got to get tow hooks fitted to the Suzuki too. I was looking forward to it too.

chuck some hooks on.. its ten days away.. ya still got plenty of time..

well if I get paid tomorrow I will get the cv boots for the mazda, and that will go ahead on the weekend. But I will need a engine lift. looks like hire pool will be my friend again. and then a new radiator and its all done.

so if things work out for once i will be out there.

My day can be sumed up with just a couple of words......Bang! and Ca-chung Ca-chung Ca-chung
Great day/night though. Cheers Steve.

Had a great day, pity I missed the night part, got home ok had to stop twice to pump up tyre.

Thanks, Steve

We had a great time too Steve, Thanks to you and Tony for organizing it and cooking the BBQ .
I hadn't been on a night run in a long time, Now i can't wait for the next one! ( Just yell out if you want a hand running it )

Hey Steve,

Yeah it was a great run even tho I did not drive for the best part of the trip, better to be safe than sorry.

You and Tony did a great job with the BBQ.

Overall great run.
