Torphichen driving day
« on: September 01, 2013, 07:54:34 PM »
Another good driving day on the whole, even if the morning was spent on field maintenance with Graeme and then the failure of high range and the need for a tow home, thanks Stephen.

Thanks also to the land owners and organisers

Some videos here that just don't show how steep these are

Respect to Peter in this one, I was just praying he made it down on one piece.

Awesome weekend away. BBQ bonfire camping and some off road action. Thanks to all for making this event happen.

Go down the hill they said....
It will be fine they said....

Disco 3's are not meant to go down hill's that steep...
The big one was even worse.

I think my heart shall settle by Christmas.

Good day out all in, no damage that couldn't be solved by jumping on it ( must be a first for me) and the car isn't even that dirty.

A scary sideways moment on  "the hill" for a few moments but otherwise another great day out. Glad you got home Dave T
