Lancelin Four Wheel Driving.
A Quad Drive (WA)
open day for club members and non-members
to cover the basics of driving in soft sand,
including sand dunes and beach driving.
(See
clubs)
The most important point is not to get side-on
to the slope which would likely lead to a roll-over.
Some throttle will probably be necessary to overcome drag
from loose sand and to give steering.
Care should be taken approaching the edge of a dune as
glare from the sun and the lack of features on the sand can deceptive -
there could be a serious drop.
despite what you see in movies
(and some irresponsible ad's)
standard 4WDs can only stand minor jumps
without serious damage.
With a little care, great fun can be had.
Thanks to Quad Drive for pictures.
