Logan Gets Hurt


I mentioned that we did $6,000 worth of damage to our X-trail (Logan) the first time we went 4WD in January this year. My partner put together a video to 'commemorate' the event for my 40th birthday party in March. Most of the dirt track bits are from the Sunny Corner trek and the beach is, of course, Stockton.

To rub salt in our 'wounds' we actually did Stockton after we cracked the compressor so we were out there in the middle of January with no air conditioning!

UPDATE:

Belinda has modified the video and we now have a new (improved?) version in both low and high res. Basically the same Video clips but she has put them together with different music and graphics. It looks even better than before.

Hey nice vid, can see you been having fun.

I bet your damage has been caused by too much excessive speed. Looks like you also need some dedicated off-tyres as well, emoticon

Eric,

I can now see precisely how the 6 Grand damage came about emoticon

Correct tyre placement was the last of your worries. I reckon with such speed you barely had time to judge tyre placement anyway LOL emoticon

Well, you would probably know that you have reached that limit when the repair bill comes to that amount LOL

This is not the limit, it's a Type -X- Massacre emoticon

Poor little thing.

I would have loved to be able to do the same (not in my exy though), but there is a LIMIT as to how many times the insurance company is gonna cover me LOL

Re: Logan Gets Hurt


Didn't seem like he was going all that fast for the sections (ruts) requiring "wheel placement" strategies.

The puddles might've been abit quick but so long as you know what's lurking below the water surface, it's ok.

Is there a higher quality/resolution version of this video available?

Re: Logan Gets Hurt


The bits requiring v. careful placement were the bits where we were really stressing out and so didn't get videoed (we were too busy stressing out). If you would like a higher quality version Belinda can recompile it, just let me know. File size will be a heck of a lot bigger though.

I knew the puddles were okay as a Pajero went through before me emoticon

Thanks.

Re: Logan Gets Hurt


Eric, would it be possible to just make available in higher resolution the clips of the wheel placement/ruts, and the puddles, as separate clips? By making them separate clips it allows for abit larger size/better quality.

I use the standard/OEM software that came with my Panasonic mini-DV camera and it has an option of saving clips as .rm, .wmv, and a couple of other formats. I found WMV to be the best compression of the available formats I can choose, and I can still get reasonable length clips with a file size limit of 4MB (restricted by the file server I use).

I'm assuimg you've already seen some of the clips on our website (click the link in my sig if you haven't already).
