Many Newbies, coming to our Club think that they can only drive with us, if they vehicles are 'properly' modified. From the following table, you can see the notes from this single drive, and set the criteria for yourself, what do you want to add to your own skills or to your toy features.

Not even putting better tyres?
you called it correctly :011: mythisraelsilva1;32545 wrote:That's brilliant mate, thanks a lot.
Will bare that when buying. It's really a myth that I believed in :) (only super modified 4x4 are capable of desert off roading)
Definitely. You can drive anytime with us with your stock off-road car. The majority of the guys are modifying unnecessary, just to impress people (girls) on the road. There was an interesting discussion here - http://www.almost4x4.com/vb/showthread. ... ad-vehicle.
