Potholes - I'v been to potholes a few times when i go down south and it has been working well, there was no crowd or localisim when i went. The track is the funnest thing to drive on. We pretty much wrecked our dad's trucks taking them off the jumps along the track. I usually film my mates when we surf cuz im really into it, and i was keen to go flat rock and see if we could get some good footage, wasnt planing on giving away the location or anything. but now im having second thaughts as to weather i should after reading the other comments.

Heavy Locals - Hey Ulla locals - Think your tough cause you smashed the windscreen of my car and slashed all my tyres? Get real, the cops will catch you soon.
Everyone else - be careful of these guys, all we did was take some photos and they went mad, seriously off their heads.
