I must say Chen's car is looking tops!
Steve.
was about to say the same!
And it performed very well, and he drove it very well, too
Thanks guys.
From the auto tech day, I've learnt how to use the traction control with Steve.G. In this trip I did some practice and found it really make things easier.
Still learning how to accurately figure out where the wheels are. Thanks to the team for guiding me pass through the fallen tree trunk, or reverse to correct position, etc.
Also thanks to Steve125 for helping me fixing the car problem during the trip,
Not only the good weather, beatiful scenery, nice tracks, but also the friendly team make this trip full of fun.

Go Chris, taking the super duper hard line through the river crossing.
That last bit must have been harder than it looked too.

Not real hard, was just driver error, when low gears are new you try to crawl everything.
I was just going too slow for a sandy/dustly loose hill.
Showing off, came unstuck

I remember thinking "man it's getting deep" then double checking my destination to be some random beach with no track.
tee hee.
Pretty glad to have breathers in since the Thomson Dam trip.

Made a slide show out of Richards pix (needed Hi Res for 3D)
so I could experiment and learn about You Tube 3D.
Fairly new option.
I've converted a few of the club you tube vids,
won't be as good as vids actually filmed in 3D.
Has to be set to 720 or higher,
then 3D option buttons appear.
A few choices of methods to watch, none of which I have yet.
Red/blue glasses is cheapest.
Got some on the way.
Can be watched in 2D,
hope ya like Deep Purple

You will need broadband at good speeds.
