    First shots fired in anger

    Managed to get upto Glasshouse today and put the 110 through its paces for the first time.

    The tracks we generally OK but we did a couple which were really muddy. My son took up his heavily modified Hilux which is a real weapon and I got every where he did except one really wet and muddy uphill which was deeply rutted and I was bottoming out which combined with the TC stopped me getting up enough momentum to get over the lip. With the lack of front recovery points I turned around and utilised my rear recovery, being pulled up backwards!







    Small amount of collatoral damage sustained in the reverse recovery. Got a sore neck checking in the side mirror on the way home though!!
