robg Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 A good run - Bella took some quality time behind the wheel building her technique; thanks Chuck for the spot at the right turn up on the hill descent. Don and Michelle were not going to let Truck Hill go without getting to the top and made an impressive job of it. I took video and will post. Chuck never had 4 wheels down at the same time as he rode up the gully at Truck Hill and Alyson caught some impressive air at McCrazy on the drop into the tunnel.

Then again, given the weight of a loaded LR3 maybe that's not so far off.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHappel Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Look! I actually shot a (short and kinda crummy) video at a MORG! http://i816.photobucket.com/albums/zz85/zelatore/07%20Land%20Rover%20LR3/MORGs/th_20141206_160551_zps66dkogj5.mp4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Solis Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Does it actually show movement? Cause it looks a lot like a pic to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHappel Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 If you click it a video should open. Not that you're missing much, I just never seem to shoot pics/video when I'm out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DHappel Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 Hmmm...works for me, but let's try something else this time: http://vid816.photobucket.com/albums/zz85/zelatore/07%20Land%20Rover%20LR3/MORGs/20141206_160551_zps66dkogj5.mp4 All this work for what amounts to about 15 seconds of crappy video...trust me, if it doesn't work you're not missing anything. It's Jarred starting down the rocky line on the back side of the obstacle course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realize that Erin also brought the LR4 - that is awesome! :-) I don't recognize everyone, but so sad I missed it. See you all in January.

DHappel Posted December 16, 2014 Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 Nice pics - Did the LR4 make the big hill in the pics Erin ? I wanted to go - but work trip prevented it. Ha! No fancy smancy LR4s made the big hill, only the mighty LR3! Actually, Jared tried it first in his RRC, the RedRover. He made a pretty good go at it and got about half way up before having to back down. Then I tried. And failed. So I tried again. And failed. I was getting pretty PO'ed at the computers - actually yelling at the truck as I tried to keep my momentum up 'Come on! I said Downshift! More Power damn you!' Then I realized I still had the stability control on and made one last run which finally worked. With the late model trucks, the stability control really needs to be OFF when running anything difficult. To be fair, with some different tires I'm sure the LR4 would have had no problem going up the hill. The hard part was trying to find a line that kept you out of the ruts and maintaining momentum in that soft silt-like mud/sand mix. For that run, the added weight of my armor and gear was actually a hinderance if anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
