Yeah, I think Steve was a little more kamizkaze than I was through the water, and I was probably a bit too quick over certain bits of Whitestones. Got the dinges underneath to prove it  Hipo1024 wrote:Ive just looked through all 171 files in that albm!
Yeah I chucked the camera at my daughter and just told her too keep clicking. There are a few more lanes I still haven't tried round here so I want to give them a go in the next couple of months. Might even be able to persuade the Liverpool Massive to come

So am I, a lane I know well, never seen it that bad  You did the right thing at the lost lake by turning round, many a laner come a cropper here and literally sunk. Excellent pics, and a good write up  Someone mention laning? Just tell me when and where!

Cheers Simon, what a day it was a yesterday!!! Thanks to your daughter for all the gate opening and closing, it certainly makes life easy having a gate opener. I am trying to work out how to upload vids, when I have sorted it i will post on here.
Looking forward to the next time, hopefull we can get a few more of us out? We need to set a date and get people to sign up, I did leave it a little last minute that time.
Has your filter dried out? and the eml stayed out?
Thanks again
Steve

no worries Steve, it was a good day Yes mate, I'm hoping to twist Drift's and Andysd1's arm to come, and by the look of Furio's location he isn't a million miles away either so we can hopefully get something together. Yeah airfilter is dry, can't believe I forgot to seal the damn air box screws  EML was fine after we emptied the water out of the filter box Oh, and for the piccies and vids you can upload them to Photobucket (free) and post the links here

Very good guys, pleased you all had a good day  Also might be an idea to turn your lights off when you going through deep water as you could pop a bulb I was told that as I hit the cold water with my lights on Cheers Roo

stevd - I think you need to fix your rear seats buddy! listening to them as you bounce down them lanes is like nails on a chalk board! especially video 7 of 20 on your PhotoBucket page. But good vids! REALLY wish I lived in wales now!  My 2.8 shorty - now sold, and comments hereMy old dti - now sold "Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "WOW --- What a Ride!" This vehicle runs on 100% recycled dinosaurs
