Manukau 4WD Club Winch Challenge 2011











This was held at Onewhero, these shots are from Sunday morning. The vehicles are heavily modified 4WDs with rollbars. These first pics show the sequence what they do, down into a stream, a winchout from the stream bank using a ground anchor or handy tree, over the hill then back along the stream and up the bank again. Here is a small mp4 movie.

These shots below are some more interesting snaps from an entertaining day.
