Ran the club practice day at our track.


Only one issue, a broken axle.


Used what was in the ute to ballast my tripod, care of the Crescent Tool Co.

Converting  a motor cycle trailer into a pine straw hauler. Without destroying the purpose, always had it flat beaded.  For hauling stuff and ease of loading the bike, adding sides and tailgate now.

Bought this in 81, it's hot dipped galvanized, made by Rocket.  Boat trailers, best 400 ever spent.

Post some pictures later....

Yesterday went for a ride, then we went out with some friends.

Headed to a poker run this morning.

That's the kind of ingenuity I enjoy seeing, something I'd do 

Not only that extremely functional  O0

I Like It !!

Last night took the fiberglass hard lid off my ute.



Today I'm in Taupo, a friend is a  Ironman4x4 dealer, getting an aluminum hard lid and a roof top tent.


It was a bit foggy on the way down.

Dropped my ute off and they gave me this to drive for the morning. Hopefully no one who knows me sees me driving it!



Stopped to see another mate. He is the co-driver in this AP4 Skoda rally car. They had a little oops (rolled over and back on their wheels) on the weekend.



Some amazing race cars come out of this old furniture factory.

Because I've still got a couple of hours to kill, have some Taupo photos.
