That looks like an absolutely superb weekend, there's a lot of jealousy up here

Thanks Red Oktober.

Time for some pics

Proof that landcruisers will run on coal

It is on this hill I confirmed that my centre diff lock does not work, Steve got up in his 90 so should have been a walk in the park for the 80

Looking at the scoreboard picture there seems a theme with the results from the Ashbourne lot.... Must try harder next time.

Great weekend, good to meet lots of people, rather pi$$ed on friday night which quiet'nd me rather for saturday evening, it was hard work not having power steering in the 55. Well thats my excuse. Will post some pics shortly

Looking though my photos I dont really have any that are different. My two favorite are

a.

b. - I found this when I went to unload the 55. 70 miles and about 40 roundabouts

Did anyone mention it was quite muddy at the weekend...

Muddy gav, I must have missed that section. I couldnt find any mud all weekend. I take it that mud is that stuff you get stuck in

Enjoyed looking through Reinhard's pics of your antics in the bombhole Got the jet washer out last night - I think I brought most of it home with me after Muxley's time in there...

PS: All great pics so far - come on, we want more!!! If anyone can tell me how to get them off my HD7 I'll post them up...

Some more photos of the weekend.

The water special stage was a lot of fun.

This looks like cheating. Look at the cling film.

Prize giving.

The final thanks to Tony, Ian and all the people that helped to make the weekend a success.

Till next time.

Well as far as photos go i only had a couple. One of chuggabug as gav calls it,on its side but that phots already on.

The other couple are these:

That was last night when me and dave went back down to lincomb to pick the trucks up. Landed home at midnight. Not happy!

 

[Jimbo4x4]

Here we go:

Will he do it?

No, of course not

With nowhere else to go (the route around was a bit tippy for me with the rtt and nearly flat tyres), and unable to help out, Stan guided me over the log bridge..

A happy couple

Gav had Ben try to pull him out backwards with rather undesirable consequences before submitting to Ben's winch.

And out..

Ben felt like testing out his winch properly

I think I put Halina off her task by taking these pics

Rubie Hill, going down

Followed by Ben

And then Gav

Some of the wildlife

Thanks to Chris and his family for their efforts in cleaning my waffle boards (they had been well and truely buried)

Unfortunately someone had dug some holes since the last time I'd driven over this hump, and all four wheels lost traction leaving me stranded

3rd place last year, 2nd place this year, here's hoping the next one will follow the pattern

Thanks for an awesome weekend everyone!

Jim.

Excellent pics Rob ...

T'is indeed, I'd heard too many stories of people knocking the snorkel tops off on trees and promptly driving over them. The other factor is of course security as these tops aren't that cheap!

Loving REX, great truck

Thanks dude

Jim.
