A couple of the smaller dunes we had to go over the top, so one of us kids used to jump out of the car and run up the top to make sure nothing was coming the other way, once pops was given the signal it was clear he would gun the 186 from about 200m and keep the boot in till he was over the top and on the other side, sand a ***t flying everywhere, great times......
