U must be refering to AndrewT's L series... although he isn't very impressed with his bull bar. He doesn't like the look of it or something.

The MY sedan is Jonno's... he is a demon off road. It has a 2 inch kit... welded rear diff... ea81 motor with a sigma carby. He usually ends up our fearless leader. This man takes his car places that brings tears to even my eyes.

somehow i get the feeling that it might be the jonno factor that makes that car so good. It just drives effortlesly over stuff everyone else gets stuck on.

Matt that was seriously boring... where were the hill climbs... the mud holes... the river crossings... the steep decents??

hey mattims i forgot to mention, hows your form at teh start of the video on that hill climb.

peg it, lose traction and start sliding backwards, keep it peged the whole time, eventually hit traction again at full noise and launch up the hill

nice

Not sure if anybody is aware but if you download the Google Media Player then you can save that video to your computer and watch it offline.

Vincent, thanks - yes I do like the odd donut

I love the look of my bullbar, but the looks come with a price. That massive fat bar in the middle is just welded onto the main bar and I rekon it would just snap off if I drove into a cow at 100km/h. Hopefully not as it is a propper commercially manufactured bar (Irvin bullbars). I really prefer the stregth in design of ones like Lapsed's car or Subarinos.
I still rekon mine looks cool tho!

Andrew your does look cool and prob more legal then either of the above mentioned (not saying i do not like the look of em though).

AndrewT · Post by **AndrewT** » Fri Sep 29, 2006 1:23 pm

Yeah Craig I heard you discovered some interesting facts about legalities of bullbars in your recent dealings with the pits..
I wouldn't imagine a reputable company like Irvine would make illegal ones. At least I hope not!

Yer you should be alright. Mine did pass however they were all over it just looking for things to get me on.
