Offroad-Express

Redid compressor line runs and switching and remounted A frame on my wreck.
Remounted front holes on the control arms of suprasurfs wreck this moring to adjust the castor back into line.
Then took it and GC's surf out for a test run on the Mak. Managed to flop both trucks over and bend every panel down both sides of both trucks. (awesome shit). Mike managed to squash up some panels on his own and then he gave me his keys and said flop it over, which I promptly did (3 times in a row). There were no deaths or injuries, and the official findings of our testing was that we are ready for our decent Southern Alps rock mission next weekend.
At least these 2 boys won't have to worry about not going hard because of panel damage eh

Excellent stuff - any pics/vids?

Sorry Kev, no. We were only going to try some cross ups and test out SS's new centre mount winch system. Didn't expect to pull any Kodak Courage shots ( ah well, we all make mistakes eh? ) We were only on the river for 1 1/2 hrs. God knows what damage we could have done if we had been left for longer

Not a good choice of words when your signature's MATT4U.

didn't do much this weekend, Saturday was spent doing housey stuff, sunday we ended up in the 24 hour surgery, I left a cup of tea on the floor and charlie promptly poured it on himself. Superficial burns to 18% of his torso one very unhappy bubba. So I'm at home today so the Mrs can sleep...

yay!! spot the 40 in the background.. yes.. i own a 40..

Went playing out at Minginui. a pre-run by MTB on Sat then a drive of the Mangawiri loop with Mike & Klem Sunday. The track is in pretty good nick, I only got one chance to test out the new winch - it did the business.

Cheers
Clint

put my new spigot bearin in and put my fly wheel on hand tight and blew up the motor on ma compressor so got drunk instead on crazy mexicans

He was probably trying to keep up with rok, but since its a diesel 40, there wasnt a chance

For those of you who dont know, rok is nibby's vewy special fweind

Even worse is the fact that that isn,t even Nibby.

The man is so sad that he just goes around spotting 40's . Still there are far worse addictions isn't there?

You're just jealous Turoa, Nib is a vewy special boy (his mum said so )
