Driver was mainly at fault there I believe!!!! The lines he was taking were awful, not enough momentum etc etc

But if he'd have had a LOKKA fitted it may have saved him some face and disguised his incompetence a little better

Driver, but easy to do what he did on the first run as the ruts led that way. I'd have shyed off it straight away though as it was close to a roll over. Without walking the water hole you wouldn't know. The right line he eventually took was ofcourse the key for the others so it looks worse than it was

Glad someone else agrees They are absolute top bits of kit hey Rick? I'm really impressed with mine and don't even feel like I've really tested it that hard yet.

I'm sat here right now sorting your memory sticks out by they way
