And heres one being driven extremely sedately unladen by the sounds of it.

with the D6 on the lowbed it was crawler gear to get round the esses that used to be halfway up this side of spooners :D

You are doing my head in, please educate me in how six pistons in three cylinders works with one crankshaft?

Thanks for the education, I've never seen anything like it. It looks like it has too many moving parts to be reliable and I can see why they took a bit to start.

My only knowledge of shared cylinder engines have been opposed piston (two crankshafts) and the Deltic Engine (three crankshafts.)

Open road 100km/h but it is gravel and winding with quite a climb to the top but wouldn't recommend 100k/h. Townies can't handel the gravel or they are pissed drivers.
7km to town I got there in three minutes this arvo.:D

What the hell is wrong with that road @Dundee? You have a disproportionate number of posts on this thread.

Have to be trying pretty hard to throw a Subaru off a gravel road, they're about as forgiving as a car can get!

So the truth comes out. Dundee isn't a farmer at all, he's the full time fencer employed by the real cow cockie

Its the closest gravel road to town so it is well known as a hoon road.There is another road in the district that was nick named boozes alley many moons ago but that is closer to the Ruahine Rangers.

There was a road near us that had no street lights but it had a different nickname. ;)

Did they put that snorkel on it themselves? Or did someone else put it on to get the car out again.

No mention of closing the track on DOC website. Think they were getting grumpy about people going off the track and ripping it up around the historic areas where they're not supposed to be driving, but its hard to police somewhere remote like that. They might have cameras in places now but I'm not sure, haven't been in there myself yet.
