BlackThunda NSW Meet-up 12-07-2008


Just got in the door, and just had to say I had an absolute BLAST today!

Great to meet some new people (Chris & Emma, Alex, and of course our inter-state guests), and good to see Paul again.

Alex picked an excellent track to drive on, and I don't think I was the only one that wanted to stay for more!

I took several photos but lots more video, and hope to upload them perhaps tomorrow arvo.


Alex, you need to change your name to Kamikaze, after seeing the way you tackle those tracks!

Hey Guys,

Looks like Alex continued his "lake splashing" ways from Stockton Beach.....those tracks look really full on. Alex really does like pushing the envelope. Incredible. I'm torn between wishing I could have gone and wondering what Exy killing I would have done. (Not to mention a major after-track wash session). Speaking of Exy killing....did everyone get away damage free?

Looking forward to seeing some vids.

Hey guys, thanks for a really great day out, you bunch really know how to show a guy a good time. Made it home safe and sound at 2.30am this morning and was still on a high from the days activities.

Cody and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and was good to meet some interstate members.

Not too sure whether I made it through the day damage free, there's a strange vibration in the car, not all the time but it's there. I will see how it goes after I wash it tomorrow.

I'm a bit tired and off to the football this arvo (Go the Broncos emoticon) so will post some of my pics and vids tomorrow.

Once again, thanks for a great day. emoticon

Great action shots, some of the tracks look gnarly and I bet they are worse in the flesh. Any rubbing underneath the Exy's or ground clearance issues on those tracks?

Of course, photos never do any justice to the actual terrain. I have never been to a tuff-truck challenge event, but have seen them on 4WD shows, and to be honest, some sections of track we went on yesterday could easily have been sections of tuff-truck challenge courses!

Ground clearance wasn't a problem for most of us, although I bottomed-out several times (enough times to redesign my bash-plate - it now is a custom-fit impression of the underside of the cross-members...

Hi Zhivan,
as I remember it there was only one hillclimb that posed any issues for the cars & drivers, as the picture of Alex 'smokin' his way up the hill shows.

Great videos!

Vid #1 nice mud action, plenty of cleaning time required afterwards emoticon

Vid #2 I like the way he attacked the rocky climb

Did you have UHF handhelds? I think I am gonna get me some.

Far out.......hey Paul, I'm betting you're glad you got that lift and A/T rubber. Otherwise I suspect you may have beached your Exy on that rock climb. Alex.....what can we say....you are the man when it comes to extreme Exy action.....and you don't even own an Extreme emoticon

Chris....I'd have been on the side too...I don't think my standard Exy would have had a prayer of getting up that. I know how the camera "smoothes out" a hill....so that must have been something else to face from the drivers seat.
