Isn't that a Trol?

 

[StarCruiser]

WOW!!!

That has some serious power. More than it needs for sure.

I just don't get the whole mud thing that's all. Though I must confess to watching it when all the girlies get involved. Some are even good lookin'

Here is one I like.... my boss drives one almost identical.

Isn't that a Trol?

It is , a swb Patrol powered by a 4.2 litre diesel no doubt

 

[StarCruiser]

Non turbo IIRC…?

Not much of a mud guy myself too but this looked insane not usually what you see often.

There's loads of horses on the move there.

I hope he extended his breathers...

I think the theory at least of having a vehicle like that is that most things get extended…

I just don't get the extreme mud plugging either I'm afraid. This looks much more fun!...........

I'm not too sure about fun but I can see lots of pain and expense there. There was a guy on TV that did that with a Volvo engine out of an 850 t5 who got just over 700 horses out of it.
Barking if you ask me!

It's great to watch, if someone else is payin'....

The hill climb thing doesn't really appeal to me either , it would be great to have a go at it but i expect it would disappoint me like a bungee jump did - the fun's over almost as soon as it begins .

No where quite as extreme I know but a few pics of our Sunday outings

That's my kinda fun Gav , no time to laugh about the last narrow escape because your still running the gauntlet
That's the flip side of me liking my truck so much ,if i didn't i would kill it with lunacy in no time at all !

Thats the great thing about these old suzukis mate. Cost nothing to buy. , weld the diff up and with a coat of vaseline on the leads and wiring they go places you really can't climb let alone drive up. If you smash it up stick it on the trailer and back to my mates pub. We got 20 trucks in the yard so parts are not a problem. Quit off roading my road car a long while ago. Just too costly and too much hassle. These things really are great fun for very little money.
