4wd tag along?

[mr_mike]

Throwin this out there but is there anyone i can tag along with next time you go for an offroad run.
My close mates either dont have a 4wd or are to busy with uni and shit at the mo to go out and as such my poor GQ is left on the hard stuff most of the time.
I'm a bit hesitant to head out by myself incase i end up getting stuck and walking a million miles back thru the bush to civilisation.

I'm not a total noob offroad and have done a bit of sand and hilly stuff in my previous 4wd. And i have recovery points and all my own recovery gear. At the mo the GQ is stock with just a set of 31's and sway bars removed, but should be pretty capable for most stuff.


So hit me up if you dont mind an extra tagging along.

cheers mike

[MrSparkle]

Im always looking for new 4wd'n ppl mike just pm me.


Pretty much always keen and if we both get stuck i got a few ppl that owe me haha.

[devilfish]

what area are you in?

[DanWA]

msg me in winter

me and my mates here run almost weekly camping/wheeling trips

[mr_mike]

I'm SoR in Canningvale/Harrisdale

Hit me up next time u go out Shane, i'm hangin to get the GQ dirty, stuck or rolled hahaha

[MrSparkle]

Don't joke about that mate.

My friend came with us to the powerlines track to test out his stock 80s and that ended up on its side. No damage tho cause it was leaning on the bullbar

[DanWA]

sparkle is down my way to yeah?

[mr_mike]

If Shane is still at his parents then nah he is about 15min from my place.

Keen for a camping run down collie way Dan.

[MrSparkle]

I am only 10 minutes from mikes place mate. Doesn't matter though because its worth the drive down south for some of those trails

[T-Diddy]

mines been back on the road for a bit now an never gets dirty, all my mates with 4wds work FIFO,

was planning a run easter weekend, or early may with some rain coming down..

ill post something up if i decide to go for a lap

[devilfish]

were going to harvey mon tue after Easter weekend, welcome to come along

[mr_mike]

Could be a goer, pm me some details and i'll c what i can do.

[Lasoya]

We going brunswick junction over easter weekend, mud :)

[DanWA]

will let you know next camping/wheeling/drinking weekend we plan

[fowens]

where heading down to skeet road tomorrow night, wednesday, most probably meeting at livingstone maccas ~6/630pm

[South]

Jump in the car and do the powerlines, any weekend there will be mass amounts of people going through, always someone to help... So many chicken tracks though, there is always a line to take that will guarantee not getting stuck.

Same for gnagara pines, get a GPS and go forth, unless your playing in the lakes you won't get stuck there either.

Wilbinga is another good one, definately can't get stuck there.

Whats the point of going if you dont risk getting stuck?

[mr_mike]

Fowens keen for skeet rd, it's literally 2min from my house and I know the area pretty well as used to spend alot of time down there.

[mr_mike]

South my parents done the powerlines in there stock prado easy but were just takin chicken lines all the time but part of the fun is trying the harder stuff and then u risk gettin stuck

[PHIL]

no point doing brunswick. i heard it got graded a few weeks back.
on the other hand we at team bodgtech are getting a mud comp going by the end of winter if all goes well, not really for big hardcore rigs but more from stockies to almost hardcore.
easter weekend i could be keen to show people 2 tracks providing you have atleast one locker f or r and reco points

[South]

South my parents done the powerlines in there stock prado easy but were just takin chicken lines all the time but part of the fun is trying the harder stuff and then u risk gettin stuck

I usually hit the tracks by myself, I don't do the hardest line as I'm precious about my car, its a tourer at the end of the day... Scratches are one thing, dents are another!

Going by yourself doesn't limit what you can do, powerlines has maybe 4 spots that are 'hardcore' but you can take them on and reverse if required without having others around.

I get stuck in silly places, like sand dunes, nothing a winch can't get you out of :)

[mr_mike]

yeh if i had more methods to do self recovery (winch or Maxtraks) i would be a bit less worried about headin out solo and gettin stuck.

Found a new area near my place that cools intresting.

[Lozzle]

Hey Mike, you can get the plastic bread pallets and chop them in half to make some cheap style maxtracks that can help in a pinch.

Usually find the pallets in bins or dumped outside supermarkets fairly often.

[Shauno]

Skeetroad tonight no mud but heaps of people. keen tomorrow dan?

[mr_mike]

I was gonna go down tonight for a quick look but got sidetracked by beer. Keen for tomorrow night if u don't mind one more taggin along

[fowens]

keen.
meeting at livingston maccas 630 tonight.
give me a msg if need be shaun.. brads going down and a few others.
0423 187 115

[mr_mike]

I'll be there.

[Shauno]

What entrance ya going in from ?

[family guy]

Power lines is still dry, Went there this afternoon. Few people cruising around.

[mr_mike]

yeh i was up there last weekend was dusty as all fuck. there was one mud hole but wasnt even worth driving thru

[family guy]

Keen for a weekday run today or tommorow if anyone is?

[family guy]

Had my fix today. Saw the Fesa boys out there having a play :)

[grogers]

just wait till the zook-ute is ready then it will be out for another thrash with you mike

[mr_mike]

yeh, Skeet Rd is heaps better with some mud but its horrible sticky mud that doesnt come off.

[MrSparkle]

That mud has glue in it or something. It does not wash off easily at all

[mr_mike]

yeh i have held a pressure cleaner about 2cm from a big clump that was stuck on my front diff and the fucker just didnt move!

[South]

CT18 truck wash, it's the only thing to remove mud or holiday grime from being out bush for a few weeks. Leave it on for a few hours to soak in.

Next closest thing is a full car acid dip.

[mr_mike]

This mud is like a thick solid sludge it just doesn't move even when it's wet, when it's dry it goes solid like a rock had to sit there with a screw driver and hammer actually chiseling it out of the front x member on my hilux after a day in the mud

[South]

CT18 will get through it, it eats your skin, trust me!

When we got out HDJ80 it was filthy underneath, the underbody protection wax was all red from its previous touring days. It is now black where it should be black the wax is black or not there at all and the gearbox is shiny silver.

Nothing but CT18 has been sprayed underneath to clean it up, and then WD40 to add shine. If you could eat upside down, the undercarriage of it would be clean enough to do so.

[mr_mike]

yeh i'm aware how well ct18 works, i work at a truck smash repair shop and we use it often to clean chassis.
Also aware how harsh it is on ur skin as we used it a couple years ago on an Austraila day slippery slide as we had no other detergent to put down.

Last time i had to clean the GQ after being down Skeet Rd i used the high pressure steam cleaner at work and even that was struggling haha

[fowens]

SO skeet is muddy? About to head to the pines with a mate. Check it out.

[mr_mike]

Given the rain we had today and the amount of rain due before the weekend Skeet is gonna be extremely muddy this weekend and will be packed with people driving thru mud holes.
If i get my 33's put on before the weekend i might head down there or up the powerlines this weekend.

[TargaHatch]

Can you hold out till sunday for the powerlines? I'll be keen but Saturday is a no go for me.

[Shauno]

Keen for pines this weekend, always go to like the 3 mudpits I know of and there's 2 big hill climb area for anyOne interested in a big explore might go saturday.

[Butcher]

Powerlines is still dry, went up at sunset and went though after dark. Thats sangyong territory out there atm.

[mr_mike]

Given the rain over the last 72hrs its going to be very muddy down Skeet Rd.

Hopefully the rain has drenched the powerlines as well.

[kalais6]

Yeah contemplating taking my Cruiser up to the powerlines for the first time this weekend. Total noob regards 4WD so should be good for a laugh

[mr_mike]

you could drive the powerlines in a lifted 2wd car the chicken tracks are all pretty easy.

[kalais6]

Yeah I was up there in my mates Disco a while back and seemed alright - just gotta find the capabilities of my bus I think.

[mr_mike]

found an instresting area with what looks to be some pretty big sand dunes near Canningvale. Found an entry point but sand looks very boggy so didnt go far myself but in the distance could see big yellow sand dune with tracks up it. A quick look on nearmap found the area and its looks to be a pretty big sand pit.

[JAM3S]

Are they the dunes between armidale rd and jandakot road? Been in there a few times it's a fairly big area, a mate got stuck in a little lake there for 6 hours lol was not a fun night!

[mr_mike]

nah not them ones, these ones you cannot see from any main road or even a side road they are pretty well hidden.

[mr_mike]

Skeet Rd is very very muddy and all the mud holes are full and deep!!

Time for a drive thru them i reckon

[ovaxitd]

yer when for quick look at skeet only to find a group of guys who hit one of the holes straight up.... didnt get very far and all standing around looking sorry... had developers etc doing shit there laughing... couldnt stop either :p

why would they attempt it when they have no way of recovery is crazy

[mr_mike]

yeh i have been stuck in the mud at skeet before it sux.
I dont even try the hole that i know are shallow when i am by myself as its so easy to get stuck, and even with another vehicle and a snatch strap some of the holes are that deep u'll struggle to get out.

What really annoys me is people who go thru the mud holes but dont have any recovery gear or safe recovery points, then think your a pingpingpingping when u wont snatch them out by their bullbar.

keen to know exactly where this is? need more close by 4by spots

[mr_mike]

yeh i might go for a drive thru there on sunday.

I know of 3 spots within about 5min of my place in Harrisdale, Skeet being one of them.

Yeah its pretty handy hey - we popped out down near that new development on Nicholson last time.

[mr_mike]

yeh i went thru that way from my nicholson rd a few weeks back, then about a week after rather than go down Wright Rd and Harrisdale dr i decided to cut thru skeet. Only to pop out at the development end to find everything had changed and they had blocked of the main access rd. So i spent the next 20min drivin around trying to find a way out.

[kalais6]

Yeah we got a little creative with our exit - got us out quite quickly

[1cut808]

Good ole Skeet.... Strikes again!!

MUMSRIG is going in tomorrow to Freo Fuel Injection for some loving.... and I just serviced her tonight so I might have to see about getting her dirty after....

[mr_mike]

yeh drivin thru mud holes is about all skeet is good for now, due to the development all the mx practise tracks and jumps are gone. so unless u like riding boggy sand there is fuck all there.

[mr_mike]

dam there is alot of water down skeet!!!! even the flat tracks have water over them and the lake part is almost full. Havent seen it like that in a couple years.
Drove thru a couple small holes and done some nuts on the mud flats there is a healthy coating of mud over my patrol now.

Anyone keen for a run thru there on sunday avo?

[miss_petepie]

dont you dirty my driveway!

do it sunday morning then I can come :D

[DESAM8+PANIK]

Yeah keen Mike keep me posted on here

[kalais6]

Mike whereabouts are the best spots on Skeet? I might be going for a wheel on Saturday down there.

[mr_mike]

Big lake is towards Tonkin hwy direction u can't miss it. Follow the powerlines and there is some good pits there but if you want really deep holes go in the main entrance and head right the pits there are long and deep

[mr_mike]

if you wanna go for a run thru there some time hit me up, i'm just up the rd and know the area pretty well as i have spent a fair bit of time down there on a bike and in the 4wd.
Also know a couple more areas around us i am yet to check out but look "intresting"

[kalais6]

Maybe next sunday arvo 26th we could get a few 4bys down there to try some of the harder stuff and to take photos of the conquests. Would be good to have someone that knows their way around.

Had me a bit worried in parts with water coming over the bonnet as we didnt have a support vehicle and you can see how big the lift is on it.

[1cut808]

You musn't live far from me as Skeet is only a few minutes from where I am...

[Butcher]

Im just off southern river rd

[1cut808]

Im just off southern river rd

I'm off Warton on the Canning Vale side.... Kinda behind the temple thingo

[mr_mike]

yeh i was down there with 3 other cars for about 2-3hrs yesterday avo. soooo much water! missus has a heap of photos will chuck some up later.
Had one scary moment, carving across a rutted out section following mates 80 series i started to skid sideways and my left hand side dropped into a rut that would of been over a meter deep i kept the foot in but was the rut kept dragging me towards much deeper water while the patrol was on a 45deg+ angle. Luckily the front got traction and managed to hop out of it.
Also managed to clip a tree with my back 1/4, mate went thru a mudded section first and was pretty boggy so said to me give it some stick. I did wheel speed was about 80kph 4 wheel skidding across the mud and i had to try guide the rig thru 2 trees that were just wide enough unfortunetly i kept sliding sideways and clipped one of the trees. Havent washed all the mud off yet so dont know how much damage, doesnt look like much more than a couple scratches luckily.

[mr_mike]

One thing i did notice yesterday was how much and how far into the mud pit section has been staked out with surveyers marks for development.

the whole area is swamp and you can obviously see how high the water table is there i wouldnt think it would be stable ground for building.

[Butcher]

Bletchley park was the same and worse before the developers moved in most of that area was under water for the majority of the year. Cant belive how much sand they put in there.

[mr_mike]

they have done the same in that land behind CY Oconners, that was a massive sand hill then they have cut out all that sand and dug down about 2-3mtrs and now its all flooded! so now they are filling it back in again.

[kalais6]

Seems theres a heap of us that all live around the same area.

Had a bit of a play around the tracks and work site behind the CY yesterday and through the back of Piara Waters, nothing too special.

[mr_mike]

we were gonna go up the big dunes i found in Canningvale yesterday but the gun club had the flags up saying they were firing and given we had to drive thru the gun glub area we decided best give it a miss. Plenty other opertunitys to go there.

[mr_mike]

heres our pics from yesterday.

Fukn LOL @ the bike. Anyone know of some decent sand tracks? cbf washing the pootrol after a mud session

[uzx83]

seeing the first pic and then slowly scrolling down my smile grew and grew, made me very happy

[Passage GT]

nice, wish i'd known about that place when i was in perth
pics of the dude on the bike are hilarious!
mandurah was one huge swamp too before it was developed, it's still the mozzy king of australia, always hated goin there for work cause it was always dusk by the time you got to the last job and you'd get smashed by the bastards.

[mr_mike]

Fukn LOL @ the bike. Anyone know of some decent sand tracks? cbf washing the pootrol after a mud session

ur down Baldivis eh? turn onto Nairn Rd from SafetyBay Rd and drive straight, you will c them big sand dunes straight ahead.
Never been in there myself but sisters bf goes in there alot.

there almost gone, was messing around in there lastnight. upside to it, if i get stuck house is a 2 min walk away.

[1cut808]

seeing the first pic and then slowly scrolling down my smile grew and grew, made me very happy


Likewise LOL

[crabman]

Bahahaha, guy on the bike would have been loving it!!

What the hell, Canningvale has a gun club, spewing I never knew about that.

When I get round to getting something other than hwy tyres on the Ranger I might have to come down and check this Skeet rd out. Im just over in Ferndale so 10-15 mins away.

[mr_mike]

there is Cockburn Pistol Club that is just at the south end of Warton RD and there is CanningVale Small Bore Gun Club tucked in the back of Jandakot airport.

[crabman]

dont have pistol so cockburn no good to me. Just sent an email off to canningvale to see if what the go is shooting there. would be good to have somewhere close by to use for punching holes in paper.

So those dunes around the gun club itself?? Like the otherside of the hill
used as a backstop??

[mr_mike]

Yeh their near it but not actually part of the clubs land. I didnt want to go in them the other day cos its not exactly a legal area to go driving and there was lots of clubs members going up and down the access road and if one of them called the ranger we would of been in a spot of bother.

[Lozzle]

Mike why the hell have you got me licking your Troll as your avatar?!?!?

[crabman]

Your not a dude?? Haha

[Lozzle]

Wtf? No!

[mr_mike]

hahahahaha lozzle about to get a heap of PM's


Just lookin thru a flyer that came with the local newspaper telling about developments in the area and its said the skeet road area is marked for 3000 houses a playing field and a school.
Days are numbered as work will commence end of this year.

[Passage GT]

lol all dolled up as well loz, gonna get bulk pm's haha!

[miss_petepie]

lucky I dont mind Mike having another chick in his avatar :p

mud was epic! soooo sketchy out there :)

would be better if there was a smidge less still water then you can tackle more places

I have heaps more pics to put up when Im home

[Lozzle]

Petepie we're like surrogate sisters anyway!

Dibs a seat next time you guys head out :)

[mr_mike]

Yeh Lozzle isn't a chick anyway she's Lozzle

[Lozzle]

Hush now, Michael, go do some painting.

[eScoRt20]

after getting stuck out at telephone lane for 3 hours on saturday night, im keen to head down to this skeet road place. wats the deal? where is the entry, and were are some nice medium sized ruts/muddy spots?

[mr_mike]

Skeet rd is actually listed in the UBD. But its off Randford Rd in Souther River. drive down to the end then continue past the rubbish piles. From here you have 2 options either go to the left slightly and follow under the powerlines and there is a heap of mudpits about 200mtr in. Or you can go right along the tree line. The pits are very deep (just ask the moto rider in the pics above) follow these along the tree line then at the end of the opening turn right. Again sticking to the edge of the opening there is a shit load of slushy muddy deep holes for you to get stuck in. From here you can pretty much stick to the edge of the opening and you can loop all the way back around to where you started.
From where you entered and the sealed road stops you gan go left towards the big lake, most of this lake is about 30cm deep except just to the left of the island in the middle, there is a pretty deep hole there.
You can go across the lake and there is a heap of sandy whooped out tracks thats zig zag thru out that side of the area then eventually come back around to the other end of the powerlines i already mentioned.

[mr_mike]

here's a quick map of nearmaps, i figure this could be the last winter that skeet road is gonna be accessable before it all becomes houses and the area is packed enough as it is so no harm is howing people it.
Plus i have found a new area to go play in that seems to be pretty untouched and shouldnt get the developers shovel any time soon.

Blue circles are the lakes, these are pretty shallow all over but there is some random holes in there so just be careful
Red areas show the deepest holes there, some of these will be deep enough to swallow a 4wd up to the windscreen. I had my 6" lifted hilux with water over the bonnet in one of these holes.
Green line shows some rutted out mud tracks you can take that will loop you back around to the entrance.

took patrol out to the pinjar dunes and the flynn drive pigfarm mudpit on sat night this skeet road joint looks 10x better ran outta time to wash the car before heading back to karratha hopefully the rain will wash it

[Brod]

Those photos actually make the cruiser look like its in decent condition haha

[MrSparkle]

No amount of rain is going to make your patrol look clean again. :P I would be more worried about a new radiator for the r31. Back paddock raceway/shooting gallery is way more fun than mud.

[Bogrolls]

old man washed the patrol cos he had to use it since i fucked the wagon lol
yer i think i have a spare radiator somewhere in the shed need more r31's /vn's but after seeing how good todd's daihatsu goes around the firebreak might have to look at some light fwd options maybe a 88 corolla or X2 excel what do ya think shane

[MrSparkle]

Excel's are the new datsuns (they wont break no matter how much you hammer them.)

I want a falcon. I'm thinking EB-ish auto, comfortable and if the small cars get in my way i can just push them to one side. Might ask ryan what he wants for his EA - lol

[1cut808]

Anyone keen for a Skeet Rd run tomorrow arv? Spotted a fella coming out of there today in his GQ Pootrol which was once Maroon in colour....

[Butcher]

might be keen around what time are you thinking?

[1cut808]

might be keen around what time are you thinking?

Hmmmm... Probably late arvo Ryan... Got a bit on in the morning so I'd say after 2?

[Butcher]

Was hoping late so that should work will reply here in the morning sometime.

[miss_petepie]

should be good out there. would come if I wasnt working :(

[Butcher]

Im in 3pm meet at the end of skeet rd? All 4by's welcome.

[mr_mike]

hmmm sooo much water down there at the mo......... and that was before the 80mm we had on friday night.

[Butcher]

You coming down mike?

[mr_mike]

nah mate cbf, plus to be honest there is to much water down there now so alot of it cant be driven. its just like one giant lake

[Butcher]

Well if thats the case might as well give it a miss just incase we get stuck, not overly keen on going in without backup.

[1cut808]

Only just got home Ryan... Probably to late now... And I don't feel like swimming in there again... that water is cold!!

[Butcher]

Wouldnt mind going and doing the powerlines again but with at least 5 cars this time gets a bit boring just driving it solo.

[Butcher]

Thats alright mitch me and brendo ended up playing borderlands. Next time.

[mitchy]

went for a ride and there was a group of about ~10 4wd's playing in the mud up near barbs today.

Wouldnt mind going and doing the powerlines again but with at least 5 cars this time gets a bit boring just driving it solo.

i reckon i could be talked into goin up there again. Would have to be a Sunday mornin tho.
Seen some pics from a night run on sat night and its lookin very slippry and wet up there.

If you go out to skeet rd keep your mouth closed while you're going through the mud as it was an old sewage dump years ago.
