Thanks for organizing Steve, I definitely had a ball and am looking forward to the next trip up there! It was great to see everyone having a good time, it is rare that you have a driving trip that caters for absolutely everything from easy to epic!
I will try to get some video and pics up tonight

No damage.
I flopped my car in the same spot last time I was there and also did no damage - just rubbed some paint off the roof slider.
It's a pretty kind place to cars considering the terrain.

although this was a good learning experience for me and wasn't really an accident more of a "lets do this"gwagensteve wrote:I'll just point out that this was on the informal driving bit of the day, it wasn't part of the "technique" stuff we did.

If anyone is keen to test their limits on the next trip we are out there I would totally reccomend them come along as this is somewhere you can try stuff out and is relatively safe compares to the normal tracks we drive.
I was almost on my side before I was on my side, that is to say.. it wasnt a big bang, so there is no damage at all and for anyone else who is like me and worried t owrite their car off in the bush, this is a place you don't have to worry about it.
in my opinion anyway.
