Nah its long gone rod. It was a hillrally machine originally
I spent six month fitting out for winch challenge....realised I weren't a millionaire, so just used it on pay and play type days for a couple of years and then sold it on

Twas an awsome machine but just too much cash tied up in it for me to keep at the time

I know exactly what you mean !! I was lucky in so much as I had a bit of sponsorship, not a lot but enough to give me the enthusiasm to keep at it.
it's the little things that add up in off roading, I could get through a set of pads in twenty minutes if it was a rough trial :shock:
new sets of tyres a few times a year (diamonds), UJ's, CV's oils, filters, plugs, steering joints, fuel for trialer, fuel for tow motor, entrance fee, club fees.

BUT, when you walk up to collect a cup it's all worth it :thumbup: You like to think that on that day you were the best driver out of possibly 300 ........... in fact ..................... you were just the luckiest :lol: :lol: :lol:
