I don't know if you get it in other states, but in Vic every Thursday at 7pm on Channel 31 we get 4WD TV.
Being Community TV, this is no lavish, high budget production.
It mainly looks at competition stuff. A bit of information on radios,
suspension, tyres gearboxes etc.
The bloke who presents it is a real bloke.
It's worth a look. One of the few TV shows I watch.
Cheers,
Jim.

Yeah, one of my favourites each week.
In Queensland its on Briz31 on Tuesdays at 8.30 and repeated on Saturday.
Some of the spelling mistakes in the captions can be amusing and he is a bit short on detail. He doesn't always let you know when and where he is, this could be helpful for promoting the events he's talking about.
Not a bad program for a 20c budget.
However my wife moans "Not more 4 wheel drives!". hehe
Cheers Moz
P.S I love the rockcrawling RC car at the end.

Wife can't miss CSI. Darn.
So that is one time I catch up on this
forum.
Installed a wireless network at home so we can be in the same room together while we pursue our different interests. Always the condiderate husband :-)

if anyone didnt see the show tonight there is a 4wd event being held at calder
park on the thunderdome race track on the 11th september 9am to 5pm so if you can get out there & support the promoters of 4wding it will do us 4wders all a favor

The only time I watched the show, I saw guy's doing absolutely stupid stuff in the bush... Careening sideways down a muddy bush track with your fist raised out of the drivers window on TV does little for the image of 4wd's. I stopped watching it after that.

They were in Toolangi State
Forrest, a place where a continued access is a pressing issue as with many public land areas around Vic. For the record, motorsport is the only sport I watch.

with all the rubbish on tv i find the basic and low key chanell 31 a relief to watch. there is also a good boat/fishing show on in the summer among other things.
