Good man , I had the same result a few weeks back. Discos, jeeps and rangies were out the back door, a few 90s got close but Trol scored top dog :D

Well done, nice to see I recovered a green oval twice on Sunday at Slindon 1st time he went in to deep mud and after I watched two failed attempts to "snatch/tow" him out at one time with two motors at the same time, both resulting in broken straps and a torn out recovery point, I offered to winch him out was greeted with scepticism but accepted any way, he was well deep so knew a single line would not do, so put my front wheels in the divots made by others and ran out a rope to him round a block and back to me, we had a big audience, and he came out no problem, will post vid of this when I get it, 2nd time he went up deep rutted slope and smashed his front diff, stuck at the top with one rear wheel in the air, so I winched him back down, Rick

Good point :splif
When I went I had no winch bitch and so was determined to prove a point :rolleyes:
I got the lot except the last one without winching. I got INTO the last one but had to recover out with me on self recovery :o
All good fun :clap

Good work mate, those landie boys don't like it do they :lol

[AD Ent]

soooo the best mod you can do is Tyres? cool

[Fez_uk]

for grip yes

[96terrano]

Well if it wasn't for the green ovels getting into mischief:rolleyes:, we wouldn't have anything to recover:augie

[AD Ent]

for grip yes

and knowing where to find it, ie driver

[MudLifeCrisis]

Don't get me wrong , got stuck a few times but the thing with trialling is you carry on until your clear or carry on until your stuck :lol

Exactly, Part of the fun of it. Although when your stuck you wish you were wheelin.

[solarman216]

so far I have only been recovered once and that was cos I filled my engine up with water, all other times I recover myself even when I flipped it on its side, winched it back and then pulled it back onto its wheels then drove it back to the car park, Rick

[MudLifeCrisis]

I have not got a winch so have to get pulled out , not that often thankfully. The site we use is private and designed for and driven mainly by 90's so my 104 inch wheelbase sometimes doesnt fit :lol . Where the maverick excels is its turning circle and benefits from a shunt on each section as over 100 inch wheelbase. A big advantage over the Landys who's steering is shite :lol

The Jimnys always do well but do look gay :lol

Brian

[solarman216]

yep different site and conditions, I have sorted mine for Slindon and Boxgrove, probably be useless at your site, except for the winch, Rick

[MudLifeCrisis]

Ours is in a wood with lots of bomb holes , deep mud and humps . I think you would cope just fine Rick.

Yeah, sometimes you have to really hoof it:naughty and other times, that's the worst thing you can do!
