Truckster,
Very nice, bit different from here, chucking in snow as well as mud and water.
There used to be a show from Iceland on pay TV years ago about these blokes and their V8 buggies doing these time trials over an undulating course and up virtually vertical cliffs. Humungous tyres with big lugs for traction. Havn't seen it since and can't remember the name.
Cheers,
Bros.

Years ago I saw a video on a Cooper Tyres stand at a 4WD show. One o fhte guys at the stand was from Iceland.

He said that in winter it is too cold to go outside so to fight off boredom they build these unbelievable vehicles.

Come summer you just have to go and play.

Works for me.
