Essex offroad had those, from white routes (suitable for shinies) through to black routes (for challenge trucks only).

Saw a buggy down there with unimog axles, 44's and a V8 of some kind and it couldn't make some of the black routes.

That's cool then. My real world experience has really only been some byways, and even then that's mostly on my own so nothing too adventurous. So want the experience but also know that I have to start small :-D
So yea, if tickets haven't been ordered yet then I will have one. Let me know where and how much I have to pay :-)

Devils pit has green red and black runs.

One thing to remember is that its clay. You will be
Cleaning it off for years. It bakes to the exhaust :lol:

Bring an old sponge and a big bottle of water to clean
Your truck after. And a stick or bar to scrape
The clay off before you leave.

Nope, still waiting for Scottie to let us know how/when to pay.

Usually we can squeeze in a few extra trucks close to the meeting date anyway.

Sorry been too busy with loads of stuff to get this finalised. Looks like I'm gonna be off work a while with a possible slipped disc (find out in a few hours) though so that should give me some time :lol:

Oucha! Hope you're ok, Scottie - didn't mean to imply you were dragging your heels, mate - there's plenty of time left to sort this out!

Just look after your back, mate - very few things are more critical than your well-being!!!

And back injuries can be particularly painful, and come back to haunt you if you aren't really really careful!

Glad to hear it's not a slipped disc, that can be a real nightmare I believe. Look after yourself mate! Hope you feel better soon, I really know how crappy it can be when your health gets in the way of living life!
