    Always good seeing a Disco smashing a hill....but these are wee little hills and not that soft.

    Check this Video out of me, and the oh crap at the end by the Playdo camera operator.

    https://m.facebook.com/story.php'sto...9&id=770695248

    I did not slow enough at the top and went two car lengths down the other side. A modded jeep could not make it over.

    These pics are from a hill that only the D4 could conquer....a V8 powered lux only got half way and the others had no chance. Sharp left turn up the hill was a problem, and so too the massive drop the other side.

    Hey Brett, have you got a link to the video that does not require a log in to FB (I refuse to join!)? The young lad wants to see the Disco smashing the dunes! oh, and I do too!
    Cheers,

    Hi Sean,

    I videoed it from my MacBook.....but can't upload videos to here.

    I think I need to google how to setup a link to watch this outside of face bucket.

    Might try and email to you.

    Brett....

    Would love to see also - as I'm sure many others

    You could get a photobucket account free .. then upload and it will be there for all time .. then use the url link to connect ?
    ... for all of us who hate FB
    We all need reminding of what not to be 'afeared of' when we see a steep soft looking dunal road ..
    Plz

    Thanks guys....and thanks to Sean(SBD4) again....emailing each other back and forward and got it all worked out!

    It states I have removed it but click the play button anyway, and it works.

    This dune is steep and long....and I was travelling quite quick. The last bit was a bit of a lip that threw me higher.

    The D4 has a little too much power at times.....need to control that right foot.

    Made it look easy

    What happened over the other side?


    you mentioned you went over by two car lengths .. it didn't look like there was a way out of there? were you able to reverse out or drive on or did you need assistance to get back to the top in reverse?
