Nice OTR Jaipur- 26 April09 (Pics and Videos)

Hi Friends,

We had an exceptionally good OTR on this Sunday 26th April. We started 5 in morning and ended close to 4 in evening. This place is not too far from Jaipur in fact the terrain starts only 5 kms on hardroad from jaipur and goes around Jaipur from north/east to south/east.

It included hills, rocks, jungle, climbs, descends, water dam, mud, mud drifting, soft road and finally dry river bed for rally style racing. An excellent track for us..

We had 2 jeeps, 2 gypsy and around 5-6 bikes. Other than the positive moments it also had all the elements to call it a complete OTR such as jeep jumping on rock, jeep getting stuck hard, towing, gypsy gear getting stuck in neutral, repair by fellow jeeper, bikes falling, three jeeps/gypsy punctures- 9 punctures in three vehicles at one spot, bike tubes change, a jeeper almost flying out of jeep, cows chasing biker.. (non of them serious)

This could be called the best OTR for all of us. Here comes Pics and Videos...

All dry terrain, soft sand and heat, perfect recipe to take the toll out of you and your vehicle. Nice pics man!!:-)))

p.s- Just watched the video, the roll on the rock was dangereous!!! Please judge the ground clearance of your vehicle and the rock must be crawled over slowly with minimum use of clutch. what ever off road, especially on rocks do it slowly and take your time!! You could have either rolled or damaged the engine oil sump, snapped your front drive shaft...lucky you:-)))

Alfa was there with us but his jeep wasn't fully ready, therefore he was in green gypsy.

Thats the end of phtos and videos from my side. At this point all the three vehicles expect rally gypsy got punctured, we got them repaired and then finised the river bed stretch. Then there was a road to jaipur which took us directly to Jagatpura and I was glad to know that again it was only about less than 10 kms from my house.

(That would be a record one page OTR report.. )

The blue jeep with us was an ex-govt CL-540PI. It had a petrol engine, a 2.1l according to the owner. This was the first time I saw such a vehicle. Does anyone know more about this Mahindra?

CL 540 PI??? Never heard of it. Iam aware that CJ500 chassis had petrol engine on it. It had the same hurricane engine manufactured by mahindra. Dont remember what was it exactly called...but iam sure it was not called CL540 PI.

Yogesh - looks like the Jaipur NIOC chapter has really kicked off! Good fun you guys had. The Rock-Crusher was a bit risky, but there is something to learn from all your experiences.

Cheers
Ankit

Yeah, If I can make it in time. Yesterday, I could drive the Jeep with the new engine (not run in yet) in fourth at 30km/h!

BTW, the incident looks worse in the video. The vehicle was quite stable as there was insufficient side slope to make things exiciting.
