Well, I was speaking with my friendly TJM man, who is only 5 doors down from me ( dangerous!!! )
"Ian, do you know of somewhere close to
Adelaide that is really gnarly that we could host a winch challenge?"
"Ummmm...... no, but I can ask around for you"
So, he wants to host a winch challenge here in SA, along with a winch manufacturer.
Anyone know of a spot he could use?
Either mem mes me, or email me, and I will forward his phone number to you, and you can deal direct.
I don't wish to put his details up on this site.
Cheers
Wolfie

You knowing him on first name basis sounds like the damage has already been done.

I can be having a crap day at work. I say to my brother..." Just going to post the mail..." I grab some empty envelopes......... I'm sure he's aware of my ruse.....
I walk to the
Post Office, but WHOA.... there's a TJM store on the way!!!
I enter, and sit in the lounge chair, in front of the BIG telly, and watch the 4 x 4 video's. Sanity starts to set in. Once I've seen enough mud & wire rope, I am cured.
There is also the smell of new accessories!!! Now, these things DO smell!! Ever walked into some chemists, and been confronted with THAT smell?
Well, TJM has a smell as
well...... it's nice...... very blokey......
Now, damage done........
Compressor
Tyre Gauge
Recovery Kit
Waeco 18 litre
Then there's the WISH LIST........
Cheers

Outback Challenge in 2005 also Eric? Sounds like PTROOL will be a weapon. Must get onto you about that car too.
