A few more pics from the National 4x4 Show, taken on Saturday. Mainly Mud Run, but a few of the Surf Club stand.
Anyone got any captions for any of the pics - eg for the last pic "Brown, this years must have colour"
We got lots of photos but just to wet your appetite here is one of Jotto,Koi and me waiting to get cleaned up ready to go home.........a standard pressure washer was NOT enough..they used 400 gallons on Jottos alone

Had a great time guys, cheers to Jotto for sorting it out. Didn't get any of ours muddy as the 4Runner was in Display Mode with one wheel up on 24" of Oak blocks suppied by Koi.
Pics to come tomorrow, to knackered now!
Result of the weekend was the little 2.0lt engined 4Runner used only half a tank of petrol to cover 250 miles, compared to the bullet using nearly a full tank of Derv to cover only a little more!
Carnage of the weekend was whacking the rear bumper on the oak blocks driving it off, now the tailgate hits the bumper before its fully open, lots of rust and filler fell off and the tailgate open light is permenatly on. Plus the Bullet seized its air-con tensioner pully bearing, resulting in a squeally noise and sticky melting belt smells. All fixed now though, easy job.
Roll on the next one................
4x4toys.co.uk - Keeping you on and off the road...
Spent ages on Saturday going roung the off-road course trying to find some mud and moaning about how non-challenging it was only to find on Sunday that the off-road course had bitten back - by ripping a chunk out of my front tyre! Good excuse to buy new rubber Thoroughly enjoyed the whole weekend and thanks to all who organised it
Where can we get a spare wheel cover like the one in the pic...with the very lovely dog?
Step 1. Take your surf off road and make it jump like the Black Bullet whilst a handy cameraman snaps a pic for you (thanks Mark)
Step 2. Take said pic to a nice local maker of spare tyre covers together with the forum logo and have him make a custom cover for you.
Step 3. Fit to the your surf ..
Very Lovely Dog... she's a once off and not for sale... sorry!!
Seriously though, I think Koi was going to work out a deal with the guy that made my wheel cover to get a discount for the forum, not sure if it's sorted yet though.
