waimaks Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Keltik and I went for a drive in the next valley over in the two brumbys today. Got a few pictures. It was mostly riverbeds and river crossings. Good fun. +1 Subaru! Didn't get stucked toooo often either. Hot steamy fun.... Not sure what that look on my face is....Wet disty maybe? Wet disty time....Again I's stuck..Fugging cold water!...opps Keltik stuck. Those rust holes in the floor sure do fill up with water quick..... Anyway. Hope you lot enjoy. There may be some video on the way as I don't reakon the pics quite do justice IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSubaruJunkie Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 HAHAH THATS AWESOME!! Wet feet suck tho... next time, use alittle momentum. I sure miss water crossings. Here in california, when summer comes all the water evaporates and leaves nothing but dust and dry dirt. -Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keltik Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Oh yes it was a fun day! And i got to drive a Brat....i feel special. Overall impressed with the Subaru's ability. I want one! River water is much MUCH colder when its flowing into your warm car. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/data/500/PIC00027.ASF Thanks for loaning the brat John.

Mike W Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Looks like a nice spot for some fishing. Any trout in that river? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waimaks Posted July 12, 2006 Author Share Posted July 12, 2006 Yeah, I know of quite a few people that catch trout and other fish in this river and others in the area. I don't really get into that much though. I'm not what time of the year trout fishing 'season' is either. Not right now I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 next time, use alittle momentum. Momentum + water = very wet disty (in my case only two cyl'ders working)I haven't got my ute stuck in water yet, but my bro did... and got it really wet inside Took 2 hours of cleaning to cry it up. Love the little ute Waimaks! I so much want one of those with the quad lights! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waimaks Posted July 13, 2006 Author Share Posted July 13, 2006 Look what I did to it today. I think it looks even better:) But I am biased. Edit: I think I learnt a lot on how to cross water yesterday too. As long as I keep the speed down and the splashes below the grill it hauled through all sorts of things. Most of the time when we got stuck it was because we went too quick and got the disty wet Good day anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Yeah, I learnt those leasons too... Water fording is great fun, when you get it right.. I wise it was a bit more wet here. They just stopped people from driving in the offroad play ground I had only 30mins from my place.. It's a pi*s but I guess it's going to happen. Now I guess I'll just have to go places "illegally" to have fun. Soon I will have to mod my Brumby to be good on the street as I am losing all the good places to offroad!

keltik Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 OK The video is here. It was MUCH nicer editing it on my new computer which didnt crash every 40seconds. Had to fill in 10 seconds with pics as i didnt have enough video. I Realise theres no jaw dropping action in this vid but hey, some people just like moving pictures. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7843488041563492156 Enjoy it and feel free to complain so i can make the next one better!

Uberoo Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 I love the tailgate on the silver brat.Very um...Homebrew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waimaks Posted July 14, 2006 Author Share Posted July 14, 2006 Heh It didn't have anything when we got it. I reakon this aftermarket tailgate is probably lighter, maybe even more secure than the Subaru kit? That was good fun though. I've already got people nearly lining up for the next trip. The guys at work were surprized when I told them where we had been, Supposedly its a track not for the light hearted...Opps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a load of fun. The only river we have here that is "a river" and not "a creek" is the murry. But you how that is... it's all dry. Everything thing is so dry.. Umm, well, it just rained, so I guess I should go for a drive to find some mud. Anyway... who was the third person? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subie94 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 good choice in music... great job with the vid...maybe do some transitions between scenes on the next one-(constructive criticism) edit*--i went an watched it again,i see you did transitions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 *not directed at your video, but just a general option to video making* With transitions, only use them when the two sence your putting next to each other look some what the same. If they are fairly different just cut straight to it. I find it makes it more professional looking if you do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
