my D22 getting SAS

[Nevyn]

Family friendly I believe Jason, a mate of mine took his whole family there this year (Mrs and a couple of little ones) and reckons it was great. There is a police presence at Tuff Trucks now days as well as the camping areas being split up into family and hoon(jk).

Cheers Brad

^ What Brad said, 2008 was full of !@#$wits so I didn't go last year but I have been for the past 4 years before that.

But like Brad said there are plenty of Police there now, the few years before there were people stealing antennas and spotties but they got caught and locked up at Singleton police station or the Muswellbrooke.

Dave.

 

[Jason]

Yeah I noticed on the Tuff Trucks flyer for 2010 they were making a big deal of telling people there was going to be a large police presence now.

Sounds like it's on Matt.

 

[Matt76]

Sounds like it's on Matt.

Sounds good to me. will work out details when it gets closer. Will be good to meet a few of the southerners too.

 

[joshy]

took it out today...few guys got video footage but i dont have it yet

Think i bent the tierod again. time for a chromoly one.

 

[Dave]

Ever run out of flex in that thing ?

That thing is awesome.

What happened to the bar work ?

Dave.

 

[joshy]

havent been able to lift a wheel yet.
Cut the exo off for now. Although its still being trailered atm im trying to get it road friendly, still got a few issues with the steering tho. Also driving with the smaller tyres and more panels will hopefully make me better at picking lines then what the 42's and an exo will.

 

[ljacko78]

have you got the rear steer in yet?

that first pick above is awesome - front end looks so twisted

 

[joshy]

thanks mate, as i drove out of that it flexed up even further.
Nah no rear steer yet, decided to try and make some portals first as you get penalised for using rear steer in TT.

 

[ljacko78]

you want to make your own portals? Sweet. I'd like to steal your brain afterwards please

 

[joshy]

Do you have access to a helical gear cutter through your work or something?

 

[joshy]

Yeah, but gear driven is the 2nd option.

 

[Dion]

HMMMM intriguing....

Better apply for a patent if it works.

 

[basky]

basky

 

[joshy]

oops..

 

[Dion]

...Front axle lower linkage or something? Explain?

 

[Dave]

Josh is that a custom shaft ?

Dave.

 

[joshy]

front driveshaft. Must have kincked it and it just corkscrewed and bang 2 piece shaft.

 

[joshy]

Josh is that a custom shaft ?

Dave.

Custom only in the sense that it was a GU front shaft and i shortened it a little bit to suit.
