i went there after calling them to check they were open. went there and it was CLOSED!" drove from Milton Keynes ina v8! man i was fooking fuming!
 
wow that was a baptism of fire! i went straight in and had to deal with what ever was infront of me! basically floored it in 2nd low for ten minutes bounced splashed scraped and squeezed round when i got back to car park i was shaking like a ****ting dog but what a rush! bottled the second run didnt wanna push my luck with the disco still in one piece just a bent steering arm and rear arch:( my 2 and 3 year olds were also in histerics in the back not wise i know but really wasnt expecting that extreme
not sure if its my bag to be honest i worry too much about breaking the disco might give green laning a go :eek:

avon dassett good place 2 go u will defo need diff guards and steering guard has there are plenty of hidden rocks an stuff... great day out just dont 4 get to wash it in the water b4 u go has its a nite mare by jet wash :d
 
I was like that on my first trip (still am) but if I see an obstical and I don't think I know how to tackle it safely, I'll first ask someone else, if not go around it or go back. Best to build up to the extreemer stuff if you worry about it. Laning can be far worse as there's rarely a way around something so just have to go for it either way.

Best thing is find some good pay and plays for a novice and practise there. I found Bala was good for this, loads of tracks from tame to bloody nightmare. Where as silverdale and such tend to cater for the more experienced/ not worried about their vehicle.
 
to be fare the guy did say after that not good day for novice so hoping for a dry spell before next visit!
got diff gaurds 265/70 tyres and camel cut gonna replace bent arm with hd pair.
