 . A couple of days ago stopped at a Maccas in Newcastle late at night. Went to the restroom and smelt something awful. Saw sludge rising out of the drains in the toilet floor, sink and all the toilets were filled halfway up to the brim. Nearly threw up and walked out of the joint.

^^ that looks like a dead end street, how the hell did it end up like that?
its a towing fail and end result was likely but im just interested to know how much further down the road from the first pic, and im curious to see how it ended up looking like that lol.

id say its more like a carpart. pulled in went to stop towbar snapped pushing he car around, hopping the gutter and sending the un-tied down car into the ditch...
thats another pointer about both sets.. neither of them strapped the cars down.. why? are they wanting to die for towing cars heavier then the tow cars?

the one with the falcon towing the Cruizer..
if ya look in the photos theyres lots of things that coulda caused it 1) Jockey Wheel Down.. thats pretty dangerous in iself. 2) bit of speed wobble in the trailer and the falcon doesnt have the weight to controll it. 3) extremly poor tie downs.. the Cruizer is held on by some string.. you can see it on the front wheel in the pix.. |

What happened here? The sequence starts with a Falcon pulling a Landcruiser. Somewhere along the line there is a reversal of roles and the Falcon ends up on the trailer (the last pic should have the landcruiser pulling the trailer?). The owner figured he was putting the cart before the horse ?

The towbar tongue on the EL looks like the standard version and not heavy duty.
around 600kg as opposed to 2000kg? Whats a landcruiser weight? 2.5tons? Not only a fail, but epic moron

Spotted this abomination at Bathurst the Saturday before the race on the entry to the chase when we went for our firewood . The wayneker was standing next to it proud as punch when he saw me take the photo , I though to myself if only you knew .
