yep ....

make sure your fluids..(oil, water, screen washer bottle) is topped up and at the proper levels...

when you've finished "playing" make sure you wash out any mud from your radiator

And a decent strong tow rope, but we could help with that.

Remember he who gets stuck gets out and gets muddy attaching the ropes to their own car :lol: :lol:

Should be ok ste. When I went in june it had been dry for weeks and the water was still swallowing a few of the unwary.

Spoke to the guy yesterday to book us on and he was quite chuffed that there would be so many fronteras there.Have to give him plenty of oppurtunity to get our photo's into his gallery and get rid of some of them LR and Suzukis
