MEGA WELL DONE ANORAKS.

U beat the unbeatable Catalysts, the onlt ever unbeaten team on Scrappy,
with one BEAST of a tractor.

In fact U STORMED this series, with well built scrappy machines, a true
bunch of spanner monkeys (meant in the best possible way).

I love it when Scrappy Challenge do a BIG one. The bastardised Scanny
was excellent, wiped the floor of the Catalysts.

I still remember that monster that the Farmers built for the
round-britain race, or whatever it was.

Well done indeed. I owned a trialler for a while (called Wild Thing - a
complete nutter of a vehicle, parts from everything from BMW to Daihatsu
with a Series 2 in the middle and a V8 in the front) -

to give you some idea. Lyndon Camidge bought it, saying he wanted to make
it road legal. I warned him that this was next to impossible. He said he'd
give it a go. I said was he sure? He said yeah, no probs. Now I know why.
Well done guys.

Any Anoraks have an update on the fate of the Thing?

As the owner of the other half of WildThing I can assure you it's still up and
running, tho currently in need of some suspension bushes, with the birth of my
son and Scrapheap I've not had time for the full rebuild, but it will get done
in the very near future.

->Any Anoraks have an update on the fate of the Thing?

If you have a look at the website in my sig you'll see that the Wild Thing has
had a fair bit of use.

Not sure we'll ever make it road leagal but it will get a strip down and
rebuild.

Talking to myself, seem the site is down again (our hostmaster has BT - DSL
issues at the moment)

If you goto http://www.anoraks4x4.com/ and look at the Thunder Races page, there
is a flying Wild Thing in all her glory.

Thanks, Geoff - that's good news. It's so mental it has to be worth it.
