Afternoon out in Ireland - 3 went out - 2 came back !

Post by syncropaddy »

Cranken Wagen, Jebiga and Syncropaddy all went out on the first Irish Syncro day out. We had a ball - rocks, mud, wind and rain. We got places that a LWB Landie couldnt and amazed the local Landie boys with our "camper vans". Sadly Pauls Swedish Hitop blew its engine and had to be towed back to Dublin.
As Im old and stupid, I cant get pics up but there are some in my garage of the day in the quarry. Have a look.......
If there is someone who can pull the pics from there and put them here be my guest

That shot was taken by a wee chap who owned a Landcruiser and could not believe what our 'Camper Vans' could do !! He also took a good MP4 video which I have. Now how do I put that up here??
