Today's adventure took us to the infamous Mundaring powerline track.

I had a 30th hawian party last night and was a little worse for wear when Red an Blanket knocked on the front door.

After doubling back for fresh batteries fot the handheld and coasting into the servo after running out of fuel we met up with ORS rookie Tom? in Mundaring and set of on the great trail.

I'll let the pictures and vids tell the story from here...
 
Here are the vids I got on my Eye phone:

I like the first pic of your Foz, stilson :iconwink:
 
I've got a good video of stilson going through a tricky bit and then a modified patrol getting stuck in the same section ... but the internet at home is so slow at the moment, took 18min to load 7sec of one of stilsons videos, then I gave up, so I'll borrow someone else's internet tomorrow and up load it then.
 
Hey all, Tom here

Full damage report;
- totally busted center muffler, now with outer cut off and perforated tube wrapped securely with Kirk's Lemon Squash and almost as quiet as stock (has a nice rumble now though) :P
- floor pan bent in, bent back with a firm stomping from inside
- rear bumper now detachable on request
- dent in fuel tank (approx 1/2 a liter)
- various scrapes and dings along the underside (battle scars!)

Overall a great day and can't wait to go again!

thanks again to stilson, Red and Blanket
 
Got a few, mostly scenic :P
I'll try to get them and my in-car video up tomorrow
 
Photos (sorry one's upside down)
