Paddock bash in Tassie

Post by BRUMBERTY » Wed Mar 28, 2007 4:23 pm

This event was run by the RS club guys and I was luck enough to score an invitation.

Its a big file 29 megs or so ,but very good video footage of subaru canage/carnage.

See if you can spot me?

Bluesteel was one of the fastest while the tyres stayed on.

Many thanks to those who ran it, Slick job.
1989 Subaru WonderBrumby II
EJ22 Dual range AWD lifted, widened and much happier now thanks very much.

1991 L Series wagon, white and perfectly normal apart from the ticking, no I think that is normal.

Jet boat..webbered EA81 with a hybrid tin dish welded and glued to it.

92 megs....

it was an awesome weekend... would recomment the next one to anyone!!!!

altho in reality i was slow around that track and even posted the only +10 minute lap time (including a lazy swap to a space saver after rolling a tyre off the rim)

thw wonderbrumby was a machine tho... way too much grip to do donuts, was more like big understeer circles:p sorry matt

The brumby looks the goods, why go around the tyres when you can go over them? ;)

And Bluesteel's straight cuts sound fantastic!!

so dissappointed I couldn't make it, next year maybe.

Who's L series that we get a very short glimpse of in the vid?
'97 Outback - almost back to grandma spec operating condition.

It took months to organise, they even irrigated the paddock due to the drought.

Isn't that a good video!

Tips I picked up....
Rear handbrake is vital
locked diff (diffs) will be much better
Get there early while the mud pan is still wet.
Take tools.
