Was not sure if something had already been posted but I entered the Jeep in the Opposite Lock Challenge and was pleasantly suprised to see it was sponsored by British Offroad here in QLD. The guys also entered 3 rigs, Disco TD, RRC V8 and a modded Defender shorty. They ran great all but the CV breaking in the Disco on the 2nd last track on day 2. I have attached some pics if the boys from British Offroad dont mind and also a short vid of the Defender in action. A friendly bunch of guys who were great to chat with and had some top rigs!
