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
When I went I had no winch bitch and so was determined to prove a point 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 All good fun |
