hahaha..

Too right..

I picked up a little bit of wood about a foot long which was laying on the track and rolled under the car and out the other side..

Unlike TwiggyII who picked up a bloody forest at Nellies Dell, ROFL. :D

Hmmm, got a couple of pics when I can be arsed to get the camera out of the car and take them off.

We're pretty certain now it the crankshaft sensor... Not definite just yet, but almost, heh...
Happily not horrendously expensive, just annoying...

And it's not the crank shaft sensor but possibly the ECU...





Hmmm, I know I've been putting this off for some time.. so the Vid is up on my video collection (link in my sig)

And here are the pics from the days laning, both before and after the LWB Frontie broke and my tyre got punctured (got new tyres now).

Hope they were worth the wait, hehe... just trying to clear off my SD cards etc.. (but to be honest I don't know why, the new camera uses a Sony memory stick thingie so I've got about 8 gig of SD cards for nothing, heh, great for storage though).

very good pics and vid. defo worth the wait

vid dont do justice of how slippery that was........ shame no one had any winches or better recovery gear as that whole area would have been great fun!!! but couldnt risk getting "propa" stuck as it would have been stuck there for a while!!!

WEll it covered in enough mud that if you left it there it WOULD grow grass on it!! LOL :lol:
