Extreme park

Post by monstr »

Once we repair the damage from our last outing ,prob take a few weeks,how many of you guys would be interested in a run up here in Auck at the Extreme park ,Mudzilla and i know it quite well and could make anywhere from a grade 1-5 there is a charge to use the park $25 per day per truck and i could proberly arrange some camping if required .like i say it will be a few weeks away which will give you guys south of the Bombays time to get your passports and visa"s in order..

Yee ha, I`m in 8)

Does it matter if my brakes dont work so good?

Saturdays or Sundays (prob prefer a Sunday but dont care too much). Prefer not last weekend of Jan (Auckland Annervesary on the Monday) or First week of Feb (Waitangi day on 2nd) will be trying to get away for those weekends.

Right, few more minor repairs to do to get ready. :wink:

I`d be keen for some shorter tricky but slow tracks - my cruisers not so good driving at over 40kms p/hr - but will fit in with whatever guys are keen for.

Really??, thats a hell of a price drop... If thats the case, Im there, with probaby about 4 zuks in tow...

and yeah, you dont want too go there without brakes. And anyone that goes there between now and april, please express interest to the owners about the Enduro. It wont happen unless there are entries. Was televised last year and will be again this year if it happens.

Since there seems to be a few people coming up from below the bombay's... wonder if we can get access to anywhere else like woodhill and make it a weekend event? maybe as a ORE Club trip for the saturday if someone knows how to get permits for clubs?
