Just spent the weekend up the road from Perth at the West Oz Challenge. Many thanks again to Doc for organising the event. I had a ball, and I know the competitors did too.

I got there a tad late on the Saturday, but met up with respectable Joff the marshall and leapfrogged his boy into the passenger seat of the mighty cruiser. As Joff said, it is who you know, not what you know, and so I had prime possies away from the spectators spots in amoung the course with the marshalls Cool

There was quick course in the afternoon through the paddocks, but with the position of the sun, visibility became difficult and a few cars thought they would try the straight line instead of taking the corner and came face to face with our chairs Embarassed Thankfully we were all out of the way, but them cars are big when they pull on the brakes after a false turn to stop beside you

The number of driven wheels You may not know this, but the average 4x4 is really only two wheel drive. Jack one rear wheel and one front wheel off the ground, and you will note that the wheels in the air are the ones to spin, not the ones on the ground. Even if your vehicle has a rear limited slip differential, the same scenario applies. So, what can be done to help in this situation? Well, this is the reason a lot of four wheel drivers fit diff locks. A diff lock fitted to just the rear diff, means that if you have three wheels in the air, the one rear wheel on the ground is enough to continue forward motion. The wheel in the air will spin at exactly the same rate as the one on the ground.
