Currently trying to destroy the safari in my profile pic. td42 turbo, 33's elec winch, lift etc...
Previous truck was fj40 on 37's, twin lockers, spring over axle conversion running a lexus v8. Just wasn't practical as a tow wagon for the stockcar...

Nah not in a club, been to Woodhill once but doesn't give the same feeling as smashing a hardcore track and coming out the other side...
I tried the club thing but found there were too many cheifs and not enough indians. Plus I dont think any club would have some of my mates that tag along!
