that must be the place im thinking of. oh well what a shame we are soooo good we dont need lessons ;)

strangely enough any time the tank gets 'temporarily imobile' the mere sight of the j**p and a rope is enough to get it moving again ;D ;D note: lamancha bog up near the trees :D :D when i did my 3 point turn :P
It's the best recovery devise I know for landys, just the sight of me and a tow rope has drivers frantically shaking the steering wheel and reving the engine one more time lol
and if it still doesn't work the first thing you do is check there are no camera's about before hitching up to me.  ;D

I'd rather get pulled out by a freebie than a j**p lol

There was an off road driving school off the a1 near Abbey St bathans iirc. It was not pay & play and just for lessons. Wish I could remember the guys name.
I would like to see Drumclog again and will pencil in the 19th for towing the tank out ;)

Ronnie Dale is the name you are looking for. Huge site, we did some 4x4 training there through work about 6 years ago - he was excellent.

If there is an invitation open to come along to whatever you all organise I would be interested but time is tight for me just now with relatives in hospitals to visit. I've not long finished an engine swap on my series so would be good to test it out a bit.

Cheers,
Martin.

Last time we went to Glentarkie with the club, they had a pressure washer available free to use. A good, big site with lots of varied terrain.

looking like Drumclog and i think that Sunday the 19th of September is favourite.

How do we all feel about date and venue?

All we need now is names.
