    And many, many times everyone else had to wait weeks because she ripped cr p out of the track because it was too wet for anyone with more than half a brain.

    We know that Dave, but this guy has never been there. He's had conflicting reports, from 'don't even think about towing', 'only a highly modified 4x4 will make it' to 'it's a superhighway all the way'. At least he was smart enough to err on the side of caution.
    Poor blokewas quite concerned, they have three littlies, all pre-school age.
