Armortek

Hi all,
After having three fantastic days on our play ground Armortek Hill. Want to say many thanks to everyone who attended on Militracks 2024.
Between the rain fall driving thru the mud, with a great public. It was all worth to organise Militracks.
We already have ideas for the Militracks 2025 edition.
Kind regards Marco and Kees.

As promised (to those that were there) here is my POV video from Team Armortek's ride around the Overloon circuit in the massive SdKfz9 FAMO on Sunday morning.

Here are some pics of this years event:

After finishing our last tank parade, Paul´s son and I decided it´s finally time to do the KT vs JT tank pull we talked about the previous day.
Preparations: And, after KT winning with flying colors, the end result: A blown fuse, which I replaced thanks to the aid of some nice chaps.

Hi all,
after having a great weekend with all of you. So many thanks for this good time, seeing people i only knew from the forum, so i have faces now to the names. Thank you also for the Armortek team and Kees and Marco for planing and organizing this weekend for us.
See you all next year!

Wow...,
what an event .
Thanks a lot to the ones making such a great event possible and so enjoyable, especially to Kees and Marco, Rini and the fantastic Armortek Team !
Really great to meet again friends from all countries and having maybe a start of a future challenge "Who has the longest", so fun !
On this one I'm sure we will hear more in future
Back home with immediate tons of any demands I had to bring my unpainted Kingtiger now down in my "mans cave" again for a fairly huge overhaul now.
A good amount of Armortek Hill is now in my workshop, collected by the Tank uuups

Looking forward for the next event with all you nice people ,

Cheers ,
Uwe

Great show, seems to get better every year! Great photos.

I hope the Museum isn't going to see all these photos and ask for their mud to be sent back.... I have a enough to fill a large flower pot so far, with more to to be removed tomorrow. The mud was a real test, and will save on a lot of weathering, what is the recommendation for a real mud fixer? Or is it a case of redoing it all again next year, although I hope it will revert to dry and dusty, with blue skies and sunshine. Steve

You folks would just love running in the adobe mud we have here. If you were to let it harden over night you'd have a devil of a time getting it off
without soaking your model in a tub of water... I, myself refuse to run in it. Even wet it's sticky and difficult to remove.

How it all started...

This cheered me up!

We had a very nice Running Area!

Highlight of the day!
