the very end of it looks like a road(public maybe?)
i just hope that
1)its private land
2)that the camera guys changed his undies
:

see how close on 3-4 occasions he was to being hit?

great fun but maybe some better protection and better/safer view for mr camera man.

XD went/held up well

Excellent video, it seemed unkillable :
And whats even funnier is the debate people want on the "safety issues". Crack me up man, its just a video someone found.

They didnt even try! LOL Safety issues aside, flogging cars around the paddocks and the bush is just great.
I have to use the tractor to straighten my current paddock car - a nissan bluebird. we were "shaving" trees and the front left tyre bit rather than shaved it ended up pointing the wrong way.
I got a 76hp tractor recently - that will pull it straight. (cue banjo music now)

I can vouch for XD/XE's being good bush bashers, i had one of each and they both copped an absolute flogging from me each lasted around 3 months, the XE ended up getting swallowed by mud and i blew the motor in the xd up after i punctured the sump on a rock and did a nice line lock to finish the job off (all on private property of course) but damn i want another one lol.
