Hey Pete,ill try and post a few pics,unfortunately i never took any video footage of your unintentional loud straight pipe roaring to the summit,nor did i capture the chunks of earth flying through the air as you obtain traction towards the top,awesome effort those lockers and tyres certainly prove to be a good asset!!

I have no doubt there is much track making potential. but id hate to be having to shout you all a lift home, if you got stuck.. you do drive nissans.. :twisted:

hating aside.. count me in next trip..
if you all not busy on saturday.. make tracks for the bottom paddock??

we have to take you up thompsons some time mate, neat place to play, and if your in for a tough trip we could allways go over to katikati :twisted: ...however, the next time we go i want to check out the lower side track...looks like fun :wink:

i think i need to change my avatar...i dont think it looks like a nizzan :shock: ...looks like a 40 on big fat pedes to me :twisted:

might be a few weeks before i can do another play tho mate, love to come up and have a look at whats up there but have to keep the $$pending to a minimum at the moment, but soon i hope :D
