Billing mud run - Winter update!! Take a look!!!!!
« on: April 13, 2005, 21:21:30 »
Went to Billing last weekend and decided to have a go at the "infamous mud run"  :twisted:

Was advised it was deep but my truck has a snorkel, 2" lift and 35" Simex tyres.

What could go wrong  :twisted:  :shock:

Could not belive my luck to be honest.  Thought she might be a gonner!  :?

I have to say that the V8 did stall though.... Water proof kit good but still not as good as a diesel  :evil:

Okay so the seats were soggy... :cry:

FAR WORSE was that a 200tdi disco with 2" lift and dirt devils (standard apart from that) drove through it!!!!!  Floated mind you, but drove though  :evil:

Why spend thousands...... :evil:  :evil:  :evil:  :evil:  :evil:
