Well dont know about the others but I had a bloody great day thank you all....Even if i did flood the car (thanks Marcel for the quick snap). Once again the 150's traction control made the most of it a walk in the park and got us their and back. It was good to see the 150's getting put to the test. Cheers Declan for organising another great day out. If anyone wants some high resolution pics just pm me and I will email them to you.150 prado V6, yokies 32"s, bullbar, towbar, 2" lift, snorkel, diff breathers, e.r.p, winch, 14"s of lcd...hummm now what

Richo,
I decided to man up (Stupidly) and hit a nice water hole but got hung up on the ifs with the water about 3-4inches above the lower door seal it took about 40secs for it to come in through the front speaker. Yeah funny enough the suzuki the made the day look easy and had no real problems.

Here's my Photos from the day.
Airing down at Zigzag.

First stop was the wombat holes (what did you expect?)


Shea has a go.

Russell giving the Nissan LSD a thrashing.

We then made a bee line for the diff breaker wombat holes which several unlocked vehicles made it through.

RUssell got himself suck pretty good on this small climb.

Shea in the Zook snatched the big rig from the bog.

The unlocked Zook just can't be stopped!

Steven's Mrs demonstrating the 150's refined traction control.

Max had no trouble either.


Russell made it through after a few attempts.

The others then went for lunch by the Bungleboori picnic area. Kav and myself revisted this hill climb (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0t8TjkAKqjA) but I didn't think to take any pictures. Kav?
After lunch we took the powerlines track in search of the Alternate lost city.

The power lines track was fun but I gave up trying to interpret the topo and we abandoned the Alternate lost city visit.

We detoured through Happy Valley on the way back to ZigZag

You can see the day light underneath Braddo's front wheels.

He also got the rear wheels airborne at the top of the hill (not unlike one of our favourite Disco drivers)


Airing up at the end of a top day!
