    Track Rating System

    Yes I’m thinking if OB take this up as some sort of de facto standard and with OB’s growth and international reach, especially with other national 4x4 associations, it could possibly become an international 4x4 standard and eventually make its way to a standard key on maps.... mwahaha

    Track Rating System

    I know "do your planning", "be prepared" and "keep it simple" are all good mantra's in 4wd'ing but how can you tell from a map the degree of difficulty a track is? Also, someone's "easy" maybe someone else's extremely difficult - what do we measure this by? Here's a track grading classification...

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    ...took the young fella to the doctors to get his p2006 “Intake manifold runner control stuck closed bank 1” error warning looked at again. They’ve kept him in overnight but I can visit in the morning.

    I Quit too (click bait II)

    Good luck buddy....you can do it!! My truck is going on a diet too as it’s carrying way too much weight for a healthy fuel consumption and suspension sometimes feels the strain

    I Quit too (click bait II)

    Where do you get your maps?

    In Australia most use Hema Map which is a pay service. But there are others like Memory-Map (http://memory-map.com.au/mapping-software.html) that have pretty good free gps apps that allow us to track our routes using the state topo maps that are free. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    AUSSIES DO YOU RATE IRON MAN GEAR

    Front Runner have an Aussie site and your Gong rellies can order any front runner products from there. Their kit and accessories look good and I did think about FR before going Rhino - good look. Nb I miss my Donny in the Park race weekends. Plenty of motorheads there so TJM should do well...
