This purple dinosaurs on the rampage


Tigger did admit though that on the Grizedale track he wouldn't attempt it in anything less than my disco this proves gaylanders cant cope on offroad tracks

I'll be on the Grizedale one next weekend so will get a proper vid of it its very challenging

haha well they had fun! The black one was a hire car upgrade and Tigger got me back…….he was leading the group and hit every single puddle he could. I was constantly cleaning mud and water off me windscreen

 

[Freelaner]

i can't help hitting every puddle i see

it's just got to be done

One thing I will give the gaylander though is they do have decent handling!

haha well if you fancy wrecking your gaylander when you come up you can follow me through Grizedale

if it weren't me main car, and only one, i'd give it a go.
just to see if i could do it, even wi a defender you still got to pick your route through the bumpy bits, i recken it'd be challenging in a Freelander.

Yeah I know but its much easier when you've got the ability too full low range helps a lot
