Hello, I was conducting some tests (read Playing) on the weekend to try and find some of the limits of my vehicle in sand. I eventually got bogged down a narrow track with deep ruts ( deep enough that I was flattening out the hump with the belly) I drive a Terrano which has a fairly low clearance.
The sand was very dry and covered my boots when walking on it. When the vehicle was stopped it covered the trye and was up to the bottom of the rim.
I hadnt lowered the pressures on the tyres as I wanted to make sure I got back out
and after lowering them to about 25psi I was able to reverse out without to much trouble. My question is Would sand in this condition be considered soft? and should I expect anything worse than this on Fraser or North Staddie?
I know I know.... Go do a 4wd course!
I am booked with Duncans in Tewantin but not till the 30th!
