This week Simon searches for a long-lost track he hasn't seen since he rolled his 40 Series Landcruiser on it 25 years ago. We have a few new vehicles such as the Nissan Navara to test out on this rough rutted track that starts on private property.
Whilst the GQ and GU patrol drive the main hill, two are left to winch and a fifth take the chicken track. Then it's onto the little-used bog holes, watery splashes and a pristine hidden gully that's a sight to see. Watch as the adventure unfolds, learn about the latest and best 4x4 gear and get set for another series of homegrown, 'every day bloke' off-roading!
Stay tuned till the end of the video for a hidden blooper.

Where is this track? Can't seem to find it on the maps

it is hard to find but it comes off the roads at the southern back of Flowerdale. Simon named it frying pan track because it has a clearing for a house block but the council shafted the guy and wouldn't let him build. In summer the clearing is like a frying pan - hot. We reckon it comes off Silver Creek Rd and connects all the way through to the Flowerdale Rd.

My mate has a Navara, it struggled on the beach i had to tow him with the y62 patrol for most of the day, they seem too light in the rear for soft sand.

It's usually a case of tyre pressure. Recently we have been down to 10PSI for soft sand and even the Navara was driving through no drama.

@@4WDTV Yeah he was at 12psi and I was running 20psi and my y62 was literally no throttle rolling through the sand while he could not even get traction to move at all. (maybe its a d22 thing, and also no weight in the rear.)

LoL at the guy in the GU patrol, saying he switched something on the throttle controller and it got him out of the rut. 🤦‍♂️

yeah ok, what is wrong with that? The 3.0L Patrol is well known for being a slug with a lack of cubic inches, a stack of turbo lag and a dulled down ECU. And that is exactly what the throttle controller does; it remaps the throttle response and curve allowing you to access what ever Hp you have in a far more efficient manner. So especially when you have no run up and a steep bump up to get over, having a more responsive pedal gives you that instant punch to pull through stuff.

@@4WDTV what is wrong with that? Where do I begin? I know its for advertising and that’s fine, but at-least they could come up with something more subtle. Jacking up U9 and suggesting its gonna help you get out of the ruts is somewhat miss-leading.

@@06hunter54 right...so you are saying power and acceleration offer no assistance in 4wdriving? You are saying that being able to power into something from a short distance isn't going to help? And you are saying the term 'bump it up' is a fallacy, as reducing lag and having quicker access to your power offers no assistance?

@@4WDTV To make it simple for you, throttle controller doesn’t give you any more power then you already have. Acceleration is the same just hit the pedal!! Eliminating lag wont make any difference. I dont see why you are so confused? 😆

@@06hunter54 wow, you are close but no cigar. You are definitely right in saying the throttle control does absolutely nothing to increase power but you are wrong ion your understanding of how it allows you to access the available power. It not only reduces the lag but it also changes the acceleration curve. Anyway, the key point here, the reason why the guy who owns the company and us are saying we know it makes a difference is all based on the situation it was in. You have a meter to accelerate, to gain the power you need to bump the tyre up out of the rut. There is no way you Arte going to be able to do that with the inherent delay. Hence, with the throttle controller dialled up, you get to access the power without the lag and with a more rapid rate of power delivery. Allowing you to bump up out of the hole. Is that three times we have explained it now? It's basic physics and some common sense on how acceleration works but it's not that hard to see why it is correct.

I installed an ultimate 9 throttle controller on my 2013 200 series sahara. After 9 months, it made the ECU shut down in safe mode suddenly. Couldn’t start it. 2 months in a Toyota dealership and $1500 later, they found that everything was fine when the throttle controller was unplugged, and the problem recurred when it was plugged back in. Despite having a lifetime warranty, I did not get any replies to my emails.

agree with that mate. It's a bit of both ways though from click bait to actually showing how well the Navara went! He gave it a super hot crack and got further that the Hilux with lockers. And as for the DMax 😂, he took the chicken track!

LOL, why is that? How do you think we knew about it? We were invited. The private property is only a very small section and the track leads you straight into State Forest. It is open for public access thanks to the way the guy was treated by the local council.
