VIDEO @ Parkwood 4x4 (Tong) P&P 13th April

Post by Ladaman » Mon Apr 14, 2014 11:01 pm

First video in quite a while. Mainly due to the Samurai being in the garage for so long.

A bit of a quick knock together, but hopefully okay.

Enjoy.

It was a really good day.

Partly due to not having been to a P&P for ages, but also how well the Samurai worked.

The bit from 5:00 is my son Kartboy going up quite a twisty bit, and showing how tricky it was. Then mine just tootled up with no fuss. Proper chuffed.
The hill at 8:00 was a breeze in the Samurai, but you will then see the SWB Defender trying. He and a few of his mates in the background tried, tried and tried to get up to no avail. (A LWB did get up). So I popped round and did it again :lol:

It might be very different the next time I go to Cowm as that is quite rocky, and I do have concerns over the shackle fangs digging in.

In mud though, I was more than happy.

Mmmmm, what can I do to it next?

Er, ENJOY IT, for a while at least.

Good to see the little SJ showing the rest how it's done! :D
