Ani, I guess, was too busy playing around with his 300 lens to take serious note of 4 wheelers. Nazim is probably struggling with his new schedule of going to office at the unearthly hour (for him) of 9.00 a.m. While we wait for them, here are a few pics taken by me.

Apologies for the delay! I have been busy with work and could not find time to post the pics.

GO Ardy!

Impressive performance for a first time off-road'er!

[Ravveendrra]

Here are the next lot of pics:









The best vehicle for off-roading - in addition to wheels it has fore and hind legs that it can walk on!






























Forget off-the-road these guys are off-the-ground.





The pictures do absolutely no justice to the course, the participants or their vehicles. On display that day was great driving skill on each part of the challenging course laid out by the organisers. Inclines were not mere inclines - they had ditches dug in them to make them more challenging. One section of the water & slush had vehicles crossing it two directions to churn it up nicely. The hills were a little wet (and slippery) due to rain overnight.

Ravveendrra,

Thanks, but when did you sneak up with a lens??? Never noticed one with you or knew of your prowess in photography. Nice action captured.

Nazim Sahab,

"Aap kyaa aayae.... bahaar aagaayi, mei khaane mien
Phool hi phool.......... khil uthae mere paimane mien"

But I am sure you have shot more than, only and just Ardy's???

Anirudha,

You are missing.

Regards,

Yes thats me in the first pic. posted by Ravveendrra, talking to the contestants.

A Pajero (red&white, not in pic.) landed on its belly with all fours in the air on the third hump, the contestants behind it (below) on the second hump winched it with their RC winch in 4 minutes flat.

This is one hell of an original Jeep, with the PTO and its own activation lever right there.

Notice how to tie the belt fasteners for the shovel and axe.

The brass cylinder on the steering column is related to the radio and the one on the floor is for what? I have no idea.

My personal best angle is of this 550 clawing its way through the mud, owned by Mr. Hyder.

Fazal Saab ,
Thank you.
Yes there are more pictures and not all of them are of Ardy's Gypsy!

































This gypsy had team bhp sticker on it. Whose is it?

As the saying goes, one should definitely utilise their weapons/arsenal optimally.

Thanks for the compliment. I do not have a 'lens', I use a humble P&S with extended capabilities a.k.a. a Super-Zoom. It has 18X optical zoom which can go up to 72X using digital zoom.

You are talking about the first pic in the second set posted by me.

Here is the third set:






















That looks like a traffic jam to me








Next 3 photos: I fall in love with the Judo every time I see it run on the course. This IMHO is right on top of the heap when it comes to 4X4s









All the Gypsies covered the course without any problem

Thanks, Nazim. Lovely pictures.

I am Loving it. Wanna do more off-roading.

Please e-mail me the pictures in original size as well. I will PM you my e-mail address.

Cheers,

[14000rpm]

very interesting 4X4's out there...btw, who drove the Prado ? how did it do ?

[MileCruncher]

I reached there around 1PM expecting things to be happening at HST pace was leant that the event had started on time. So much for Hyderabadi Nawabi Culture.

Few pictures from my side

Not to miss the all girl team participating in their Toyota FJ (blue) and Judo driven by Mrs. Shafahat, apart from many lady passengers in the event.

[vinod_nookala]

Fazal Bhai,
Excellent event you guys had! COngratulations! It is good to see even Audi owners are risking thier vehicles. Quality of track is good. Shows lot of hard work.

[pulsar56]

Ardy, I will upload the pics on Picasa and send you the link soon.

Continuing with the rest of the pics...

























winching out of the slush

[fazalaliadil]

Thanks Vinod,

Not only the Audi, which banged its twin exhausts in the ditch but the Porsche Cayenne got stuck on its belly on the 4th hump and had to be pulled out like the Pajero. Hats off to their owners for their guts in taking part in those vehicles.

There was no Fortuner here, but I feel it could clear the humps due to its extra GC.

The LHD Mahindra with a hard top could have been fabricated abroad, but how many of you noticed the hard top on this CJ3B (below)?

Regards,
