Another ridiculous Ormeau Creek attept: no 415!

[Psimpson7]

Well again today we attempted the creek track that has thwarted us between 1 and 2 times previously. And this time we all made it!!!

Quite a lot of winching, track building and so on but an awesome day...

Cars.

MickG: D2
Camo: RRC
Aquarangie: RRC
Stikman: D1
Psimpson7: D90

Passengers

Shepp
Outlaw

Downsides: Heatstroke, panel damage - everyone nearly - including my rear tub, exhaust damage, My CB ariel, Camo's rear a-frame, me dropping Sams camera in a puddle,(while falling flat on my face in it....) etc etc etc..

Upsides: The SD card still works, we (well I at least) never have to attempt it again, and beer and donughts upon return!!





Pah, its almost the M1







sat on the chassis rails:









track option 1 (see the other track below...)







The other track!!

lol.... I decided running the 33's reduced the risk of serious drivetrain damage!!

Was a great day but yes i think i can cross it off my list as done First third is tough right from the first meter, zero room for error and any slip ups hurt. Last two third which we had not done before was awesome nice steps, ledges, and cliff faces but more forgiving so more fun, for me anyway

Thanks to all that attended, once again some nice driving and a great bunch

Thanks for the pics Pete, and bring on the vids

Hey Pete! D'you really think I can get up there with my 'baby' 33's, only 1 locker and a sals in the rear!!!????? Looks like a winch is on the cards before I come up to your part of the world then!

Great pics mate, and yes I WILL take you up on the invite as soon as we're up that way. Missus took a look at the pics and said 'when do we go?'

Trav only had 1 locker and 33's so anythings possible... the clearance of the sals wont help though!! I wont do that track again...

Only Stikman ran 35's

As Stikman said the first 250m is very very hard going...

i got stuck within a car length of the start again....

Great achievement guys, wish I was there
