I was also keen to have a go but then I saw one of the videos on youtube!!! Phew, what a rough track. But if Hart can do it then with my extra 40mm height, so can I. Peter from Port.

Wow Ken. Thanks. I wonder if Hart will let try that trick on the top of his shed. On my Avanti, not a Syncro!!!! Peter from Port

Bill, Hart & All Keen Valla goers,

Mel is bringing the syncro up this year but she wont get there till around lunch time on Saturday, She cant drive the bay kombi (well last time she did it cost me about $500.00). Somehow I don't think my lowered 71 bay will cope with an off-road adventure.

Looks like I will have to wait for Old Bar off-road fun.

Cheers,
Skot

Hi all. Anyone interested in a short but quite challenging 4x4 forest drive during Valla 2012. The venue is a short forest drive (ABOUT 4KM) at the back of coffs Harbour called the "Rover trail". The local 4wd clubs use it to test their vehicles and for fun. The highlights are some very steep rutted climbs and descents, and lovely forest drive with views. It's within the capability of our syncros but will definitely test them. I got through a couple of weeks ago without engaging diff lock(not by choice the diff lock wouldnt engage). The beginning of the trail is near Bruxner park lookout which is a destination itself with a skywalk and breathtaking views over Coffs and out to the solitary islands.
My proposal is. Leave Valla 9am friday 3rd August for 35 minute run to Coffs. Morning tea at Bruxner park lookout. 2km to start of the trail. Allow about half an hour to one hour to complete the course, obviously more if we stay and play or get stuck.
Returning to Valla we go past Raleigh raceway where the vw racing is held. There are a few posts on youtube featuring the rover trail. Expressions of interest? Bill

 

 

 

 

As long as you join us in the fun and Syncro mate ship, that's all that matters

Valla-ers,has everyone got accomadation or are people ruffing it??
I am coming up on my own,so I dont have to worry about kids.
Those who have been up recently,is there somewhere I can park and sleep not to far from the resort,as I am assuming the park is booked out.
I am not familiar with the layout as it was 88 the last time I was up for the Volkswagen Spectacular.

Great to hear you're coming up Ben.

Ken knows all the secret spots to hide out around and with all the people floating around and no gates I think you would be OK to just drop in for a sleep over anyway.

Are you camping in your van?

Cheers,
