Yeah, but would it have made it through here?

Quite likely, yes - you'll be hitting it a lot faster than you would in your road car.  :twisted: That and a more appropriate set of tyres!  :wink:

...and if Bowler are reading this, I'll happily test the theory for them!  :lol:

'Big up' for the guy in the piccy though - using the car properly. Sweet.

cheers

As Eeyore said - highly likely, unless...

...there was a faster route! :wink:  :lol:

Hmmmm RR54 MUD .....

/me arches an eyebrow ;-)

He needed some MT/R's - then he'd have flown it.

I'm pretty sure I saw LR05 MUD on a Disco 3 there as well.  You don't have a monopoly on the MUD letters..... :D

I don't know.  I don't think I saw anyone make it through there - I didn't even attempt it (though I did pretty much the rest of the site!)

Talking about my RRS then!  No way anyone would make it through there unless serious speed achieved.  Also full of flint will kill wheels/tyres!  Had fun though! :D

I did see some people make it through there.   Lots of speed, mud tyres and gritted teeth.

I don't know if you'd intended to get in there, or realised how deep it was, but full marks to you for bringing the RRS along and having a go.   I did something similar with my P38A just after I got it, and decided trashing something cheaper was a better option!

A little more speed would have been good.  Probably would not have done it if I knew what was in there, but thought a little bit of mud is ok but the flint was the killer!
