Quick Trip to Test the Disco
November 23, 2008 on 8:00 am | In Blogs, USIN's Blogs | No CommentsW.A.S.bought a new sico, so he wanted to give it a test.
We took him up to the hills…..
We took the water road up, but it was actually fairly dry, so not too much deep water to wade through.
Then headed to the pylon corner, and headed past the water works to the hills.
We took the track to the quad track, and had a quick spin around there. Trooper1 sild a bit in the heavy ruts at the botom, and got a bit stuck. So it was testing time for the disco! Can he recover a bit of a stuck car?
Ater this headed past the trig, towards Rangy mud hole. Took a left along the main track, until we took another track back up towards the trig. Took another right, and using slightly different tracks headed back towards the water works.
The new Disco handled reasonably well,will only afew small issues. All in all a good test!
We headed off the mountain, but on the way back happened upon a couple of stranded motorists. We were there for several hours. One car started, and the driver sucessfully home, whild another one had to be towed towards home.
It appears that some kids dumped boulders in the road, and these cars hit them, causing the emergency fuel cut offs to trip. We could find the one in one car, but not in another.
Tow complete, it was time to head home. A little late, but a quick trip in the bag!
