Offroad-Express

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..

I would be keen. as long as it doesnt clash with work.

fuk work

sounds good to me sundays suit me best

count me in

Ill be there, should have enough money for gas by then

as discussed with Wayne last night, id been keen, situations allowing me the time (wife/work)

fawk work and stuff the wife.. or is it the other way round...

be there with bells on. hmm.. back to the shed i go

i can also supply accomodation for non ferral type ppl..

depending on dates i'd be keen
as i'm sure Big-Al would be too...

Dont you have to have a job to say that ?

Could throw in some training for those that want it whilst you are there perhaps?

No,,Thats why I can say it..

Stick to what your good at I say!

Right i have just about got my truck back to some sort of working condition,as i live onlt 25min away from the park im pretty flexable as to dates,If you can give me some dates when you guys are keen to do it and what sort of a run you want and well sort something out..Cheers..Steve

Yee ha, I`m in

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.

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.

cool im in
would be best after jan as gigs all though jan every day and georgie fame gig in wellington and napier on 3 - 4 free there after
cheer

Hay MNC..I would sugest you do somethig with your brakes mate.This plase has some steep stuff unless you like roller coaster rides and a sudden stop.

Yeah, I been there to watch the trials before. Dont have much choice with my drum brakes though cause once they are full of mud they suk

Trying to put some 60 series diffs with discs in but prob not ready before then

Hay ,thats cool . If youve been there you know wot ur in for. I will stay out of your way,,or at least up hill from you.

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.

Lost front brakes out there one day not fun

As the name suggests I drive a pajero (stop laughing!!!) its standard, only thing I have changed is a set of steel rims and mud tyres (31s, its hasnt been lifted)

Would be keen to come for a play

Hi Northland Pajero,You will be most welcom,The park is set up to cater for all types of 4x4s,The only requirement is mud tyres,rated tow hooks,and the usual recovery gear,...Steve

I have just spoken to Russell who opperates the park ,the earlest date avail is the 18th Feb,so ive booked that date.Sorry its so far out but its out of my control...Steve

sweet as that suits me

18 Feb suits me too....

Being a member of the $wd club I have the recovery gear and tow hooks front and rear...

Will be good to meet some other 4wders

would we have time for a spot of 'training' for the less experienced peoples [like me ], like how to use a high lift jack, basic recovery skills and some basic off road driving skills???????????

18th is good for me, book me in.

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?
