Over two nights in August RAC DTEC took a group of hardy travellers on a bush tucker trek tackling 4WD tracks from Augusta to Busselton and learning how to cook incredible camp food.
With a base camp in Hamelin Bay, the group came together on Friday evening to be welcomed by our RAC DTEC tour guide, South West Manager, Keith Harraway and side-kick Andy McLeod, DTEC Training Team leader and 4WD aficionado.
A road trip though the Gascoyne Murchison region uncovers a wealth of little-known natural wonders, writes Lee Atkinson.
After setting up camp at Pinnacles Holiday Park on Friday evening, our second GET Sandy event got underway early on Saturday morning with a relaxed start over a cup of coffee and a good chance to socialise before the inevitable comparison of vehicles commenced. There was a great range for the tour from a stock Triton to a Landrover Discovery 3 to a modified GU Patrol ute.
For years, a torquey turbo diesel engine has been the default powerplant for the majority of Land Rover Discoveries on the road.
Given its off-roading intent and sheer size, the 3.0-litre diesel V6 makes perfect sense, especially given its silky smoothness and class-leading torque among its direct competitors.
Calling all 4WD Owners in the South West!
The GET Series is a program of exhilarating events run by eventspace wa in conjunction with RAC DTEC and MC Motorsport.
