hi
If you cant find n e tracks up hstgs way give us a yell as we have some awsome tracks down near ypawa/ypuk river, we go for a trek every coupla weekends. Not really suited to the shinys as the tracks that we made are through drains and the scrubby part of the river.

6 Thousand ks and still going went threw some mud in the weekend heaps of fun water temp seems to stay stable on the halfway mark, Drove a lux without a turbo with the same size tyres man was it slow lol Next on the list is a thicker core radiator, A mate sez to get this stff that increase's the boiling point of the water meant to be better than glycole and be 30% cooler so thats me. just want it for extra security thats all i recomend it.
