Tuff Truck is the "Bathurst" of 4WD events with huge crowds and a fantastic atmosphere.
I was there filming for 4WDTV and managed to grab a few pics at the same time.
Friday morning saw the competitors start streaming in for scrutineering and then lining up for the show and shine..
Spectators had the chance to get a good look at the wierd and wonderful mods...
Friday night saw half the field tackle the Mud Run while the other half tackled the Mystery Night Stage ... they swapped over the next night.
The first rock mound stopped most of the first few competitors...
The large rocks under the mud were impossible to see and caught many out...
Trying to move one of the rocks out of the way...
despite some valiant attempts the rocks caused long delays to get the competitors out...
They decided to move the rocks and let the first competitors run again...
With the rock mound a bit easier the next long muddy hole had competitors driving the sides to avoid the deep soft mud in the middle ... some went a bit too high...
These guys were all prepared for a dip...
Most were completely covered in mud...
The first Mudhole was quite long and very deep...
The step up stopped most who got through to the end of the first mud hole...
Most just tried the old "if in doubt, go flat out" approach...
