Sounds like the sort of prat who gets off road driving a bad name.

Aww, berk, are you jealous (as well as being too stupid to snip)?

1) It was a 'fun' closed course [1] for people of all skill and
experience levels (inc none, so you could also have had a go if you
wanted). ;-)

2) You were invited to 'run what you brung' ... and the only exception
was the (presumably joke?) sign at the gate saying 'No Freelanders'.

3) Several vehicles had to get recovered because they got stuck
somewhere or broke stuff (holding everyone up).

4) BIL did a good job for his first time, even impressing a couple of
the marshals on the more complex bits (and given the limitations of
his Disco).

5) He got a good cheer from the audience on the final water splash
(and that was the point / goal).

6) On the second (of two) lap I managed to also get some video from
the outside so he could enjoy seeing all the axle articulation and a
feel for the angle of the assents / descents.

A good day out enjoyed by all. ;-)

Cheers, T i m

[1] But you knew that eh?
He's still a prat.
