Looks like a lot of fun ! But you clearly need a WW1 tank for all that mud ...........
And I still think the green on that M3 Lee is garish

Hi Peter,
Where is Reichshofen ?
Did you mean Reichshof ? South of you at Hagen and east of Köln ?
Or Reichshoffen in France, west of Karlsruhe ?

Absolutely brilliant, lovely to see.
All you need now is a Chieftain to keep an eye on things: and get the tracks rusty
Honestly, really good show.
Cheers Charles

Thank you Peter for the clarification on the location.
Reichshof is less than 2 hours drive for me each way so easily do-able if not required to work on the Saturday. Please do let me know when the next meet is planned.

Here you can see how beautifully Liam's tiger1 idlers performed in the eastern mud - just like the real thing was designed for - in through the perimeter and out between the spokes:
I wouldn't be surprised if they work in wet snow as well - I just haven't had a chance to test!
