With Winchbreak being graded, you'd be kicking yourself if you missed the last chance to see/drive it :D

Red bull is your friend.

That's exactly what I did last time I went to winchbreak. Got home at 6.30am on Sunday, left for Winchbreak @ 7.00am, survived on Red Bull alone :mrgreen:

I'd love to come but working. Maybe again in a few weeks if its still open. Be careful coz there isnt heaps of praking up top so be careful not too many watcher vehicles. another option is people leave their jeep further up the trail and hitch a ride.

If I'm at maccas I'll be joining as a spectator. Awaiting a call on my diff that may avoid me having to go to canberra on saturday to get it.

I'm out because my diffs ready :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: and I need to pick it up from Silverwater at 11AM.

I might cruise out afterwards and watch the action.

How do I find the place.

You'd think it was something speacial considering the time I have had to wait, but alas it is just the same old D30 going back in but with new lokka.

Just got to get it all back in before the appin trip.

TIGGER

ANtz i did some video on maddaog's camera - not sure how good it turned out, i think it was pretty lame as i was scrambling to get down the trail in time..... ben, have you looked at it yet?

maddog

Yep I watched it, it's not terribly good. Your girlie is a better video taperer than you Jase ;)

I was a bit disappointed that my near backwards rolling didn't look quite so spectacular on the video though :oops:

I'll try to get it encoded and put on CD for you guys soon.

I have video from out trip the week prior (mine and Jetty's) and one of the guys in the club has offered some profressional editing if we can get it all together and get it to him. If we were going to get it all put into one DVD or similar, I could also dig up some older footage as well. Might need the master tape for quality though.
