Yep, good work ViewWise. I do have the footage but will take a bit for me to get it all up and running.

But for now, how an RRSport should look Cool

It did scramble a little at the far end of the pond, but i had every confidence in 10forCash's judgment on it making it

I have a few pictures and will post them ones they have been uploaded

Viewwise should have lots of pictures too, there was more cameras in his car than all the cars put together Laughing

But he'll have to get back from the West End first as that were he was heading after leaving Tong Shocked

Mr. Green Mr. Green

I had a great time Smile. The hill was rather amusing and due to it being my first time i had no real technique other than try and keep the momentum and was making it harder for myself after every attempt Laughing . Then i applied some race track theory (lose some weight, which thinking about it was only like 55kg lol) and finally managed it Bow down . Going down the same hill the first time in the wrong gear at a ridiculous speed was also a bit amusing if anyone caught it on camera. Looking forward to the climb vids Laughing .


Overall i pretty much did all the blue routes and a few reds. We convinced one of my mates to drive a route just before the place closed and we must have missed a sign somewhere because it turned out to be a red route. Really did not expect the stock car on 20's and normal tyres to pull itself through that amount of mud ruts under water but it did! Bow down. Whoever was in the D3 with offroad tyres who nicely followed us in just incase. Thanks Bow down .


I didnt get a chance to get too many pictures because i was driving most of the time but did pull over and get a few nice ones and my passengers were trying their best to use my camera Laughing . Off to Egypt tomorrow morning and not sorted out anything yet Big Cry , but i will try and get some up today!


Thanks to Iain for the great tuition!. and Andy for organising the event and nick for having some baby wipes for me to clean the headlights and number plate with.


The car is still dirty! West End plan got put on hold since it would be dead on a sunday night so we ventured into mancheser to find food Mr. Green . We got so much attention in manchester (curry mile Laughing ), another sport even asked where we went off roading. Its still running perfect Smile. We had a few stones causing squeeks for a few miles but nothing since they came out driving. Got back to london after everything about 1-2am Smile.


Alfie.

Well it was just about the max limit for the FL2, a few Discos had gone through first so i could see the depth and 10forcash was spoken to first about it before we went through and he rode shotgun too.

It done now, don't think i would do it again after watching the video, once was enough Confused

Driving up and down the lanes and hills was great though, I definatly be doing that again Thumbs Up
