Default NC Land Rover Experience Event PICS

Today, Land Rover of Greensboro had a meet in Asheville at the Land Rover Experience on the Biltmore Estate. MarvelVT and I were the two forum members who went and most of the pics are of our Discos. The group included mostly Discos and LR3's, and there was also an LR2. We actually got to use our own vehicles rather than the LRE vehicles so that was great! MarvelVT and I were the first two behind the guide vehicle and I kept looking back and seeing the LR3's sliding around. I have to say his DI and my DII did very well! The LR2 had the most trouble but still made it all the way around!

It was kind of tough to take pics because we didnt stop much, but here are the ones I got:

Yeah... I wish I could have gotten some more action pics but, most of the ones I got were at stopping points. Gotta say the two of me going into that mud hole are my favorite pics of my disco to date!

Cam,

Sorry I missed it. I had to wait until the last day to sign up to make sure of some other family obligations. When I called on Thursday, Diana was not in and had to talk to the service department guy. and they said they had already closed out the list. Honestly, not sure if the list was full of since Diana was off that day and until Tuesday of next week they closed out the list early. I was not real happy, but I knew there was a chance of that when I had to wait until the last day to try and get in.

Looks like fun!! So I had to watch youtube Land Rover Driving School videos Saturday to keep myself occupied. Thanks for the great pics.

I am so frigging jealous I can't stand it. I spent the day working in the woods clearing roads. Land Rover = 4-Passenger Tractor. See attached:

It was a beautiful day to be in the woods - glad you guys had fun. Did any water get into your cabin in the water course?

It was a great day to be out in the woods, the leaves in Asheville were amazing. I got a little water through the back two doors, but it was very minor and didnt make it over black part that hold down the carpet.

I can't tell how close the camera operator was to the stump, but it sounded fairly close.
That's pretty dangerous. If the strap were to break near the land rover it could whip back and really hurt someone.
That's the only video I watched.
