The First UK VX Meet
THANK YOU to Alan and Nick for coming to Hogmore Arena, i had a geat time. We had 3 VX's and it was the FIRST UK VX Owners Meet (that i can see)
My boss came along in her Nissan navara and we had to spend some time getting the recovery points ready and then going on some easy routes as it was a double cab with slick tyres lol, but then we had a good run around in the two VX's.
May i be the first to point out that Alan got stuck :D and i tried to tow him but couldnt get the grip so a Dakar did it (pics to follow)
The VX's held there own as usual against the other 4x4's and we did some trick bits.
I managed to pop my front tyre of its rim :D I nailed it down into a muddy bit and had to turn imediately left at the bottom as didnt want to get stuck and BANG !!! the tyre went....oops. Think Alan has a video?? Also thanks alan for lending me a full size spare as i just had a space saver, lol
Nicks VX is CLEAN!!!!!! and cant wait to have 3 of us in convoy next time :D
In all the fun i had with a seized pulley this morning i forgot my SD card so will upload pictures as soon as i can. Can you guys upload yours in the mean time????

Good pics - I'll upload more of mine (and the vids) to youtube later when I have something better than a 3G modem...
The getting stuck was pure driver error - I may have turned the air in the car blue when I did it... Textbook kinetic recovery though. :)
I'd also like to point out that I was sitting on a tool box having my lunch with the door open. Nothing else!
Will post mine later,
Alan

Looks like you had a great time, but I don't think I am to envious of the two who had to clean up those VXs.
Peace.
