Default Offroad STi

So last night i got bored and decided to take the STi into the bush (being careful ofcourse)
I am absolutely amazed at how these things handle the soft sand. I took this into some dunes, and very fine soft sand and it didnt have an issue, just glides straight over the top of everything. Even trying to bog myself in (i had a mate with a 80 series with me if i got in any trouble) it would easily pull itself out, even if bottomed.

Will have some more pics tonight as going out again.

Hard-parker much?

Best fun I ever had was completing one of the Quit Forest Rally stages in my car after being on roadblocking duties. Epically rough road, but so much friggin' fun, couldn't wipe the grin off my face for days.

Good on yer OP!

Seriously guys, i heard that if you take your car out of the garage, the bitumen wears your tyres out and the sun can fade your paint

My old dunger in the dunes and on the beach from a few years ago up at Lanno, 38lbs in the tyres and nothing was going to stop it, it's still going like a trooper today.
