Karl Woolf Posted April 30, 2003 Share Posted April 30, 2003 so go fast and buy a hat .... That helps Seriously anybody have tips on how to make a temp roof... Its not so much when your moving, although the turbulence sprays water on the back of your head Its more when your stationary have seen people use a golfing brolley resting between roll bar and windscreen over the car in traffic jams etc Something to keep the seats covered when parked and you should be okay Even if you`ve got a hood your still going to get wet, you`ll get better visibility (no steaming windows etc) driving without a hood in the rain Might be worth investing in some waterproof pants for comfort though.

Mark Stanton Posted May 1, 2003 Share Posted May 1, 2003 *cough* But what about the beer and disposable BBQ Studbuckle - if your passenger is human then the entrance fee isn't tooooooo much, can't remember. But if your passenger is a pack of beer you don't have to pay If you tell them you are camping when arriving at the entrance gate, they charge you a camping fee, so hide your tents out of sight in your car, not that I condone such actions, obviusly. There are toilets and showers situated within staggering distance of the stand Not quite Savoy standards but serviceable and wet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
