    Coffs trip november 2014

    Thought I better do a bit of a report on the weekend just passed, all in all I had a great weekend without any damage (that I can see)
    It was great to catch up with Keith and Josh, and with very few cars on the trip we got plenty of tracks in, unfortunately I couldn't camp out at Glenreagh this time though

    We decided to head out on a night run Friday night for a bit of fun, the tracks were a bit damp but the weather was awesome, after completing a few fun hills we decided to call it around 9:30-10:00 so we weren't tired for the rest of the weekend.
    On Saturday a mate came out with us in his little Suzuki sierra for a run, the first few tracks were still a bit damp so there was a bit of winching at times throughout the day but that's all part of the fun

    Sunday we headed out for the morning and completed carnage creek in about 1.5-2hrs which is pretty good considering the condition of the long exit up out of the creek run.

    I have heaps of pictures just got to find out why they won't load onto my computer from my phone

    Thanks for coming down Keith and Josh, always willing to show you guy's around

    Tim - thanks for the personal tour of the Coffs tracks - ha ha to the rest you missed a great set of night and day runs with limited waiting as only 2-3 trucks!

    But we did miss you all!

    Grimace - We got a bit of GoPro footage. I accidentally left my SLR camera on the floor of my office so only a few phone pics. Josh and I are yet to merge the Go Pro footage - both flat out since back.

    There was however some breakage - will post some pics later tonight

    Some pics of the trailer pony!



    Had some new shoes and rear wheel arch/gaurds fitted - only lasted half a day!



    Some tracks had a slight wet surface - made it a little harder to get up.


    Great view to coffs


    Guess who forgot their chair! Lucky we had spare tyres!


    Creek run Sunday afternoon






    Steep climb out of creek


    Had to drive up this log to get out


    Looks steeper from bottom!


    Sat afternoon the engine & gear box mounts let go and engine/prop shaft dug into the extractors




    Extractor split


    Got some video to edit and put up too - only got there few pics from my phone sorry
