We’ve finally started getting stuck into repairing the race truck after the damage from our last event. There’s been plenty of cutting out damaged parts and getting everything prepped ready for some new heavy-duty arm mounts 💪

We also managed to swap the workshop for the grandstands, with some of the team heading to Silverstone for a day watching the BTCC! 🏎️💨

🔧🔥 Always learning, always improving!

This week, some of the Gomm Racing team headed to The-Machine-Shop to sharpen up our welding skills.

A big thanks to Bob and his team for spending some time with us, teaching us the basics of TIG welding on R-Tech Welding Equipment Ltd. 👨‍🏭

Now it’s time to put those new skills to work as we rebuild and improve the race truck! 🛠️🏁

After the impact, we’ve been taking a proper look at the front axle on the Defender — what failed, why it failed and, most importantly… what do we replace it with? 🔧

Do we strengthen what we’ve already got? Go Discovery 2? Toyota 80 Series? Or go all-in with Nissan Y61 Patrol axles? 👀

Decider 2026… not our event, and maybe not our year 🙁

The weekend started on Thursday when we arrived and got set up camping with the Layfield brothers. Truck unloaded, camp sorted and signed on ready for racing Friday.

After a very wet and windy night, we were ready to go Friday morning… although our racing turned out to be very short and sweet 😂

The prologue had the same hill where it all went wrong for us last year. This time though, we had a plan and we were sticking to it. Megan got out to watch me down, I selected low box second gear and the plan was to just let the truck do the work.

About halfway down we started gaining a lot more speed than I would’ve liked. At that point I decided I was committed, so just held on and aimed for the bottom.

Unfortunately, we didn’t quite make it 😂

I didn’t see a stump which pushed us off line. The passenger front wheel caught a tree, turned the truck about 90° and sent us into another tree behind us.

The marshals were straight there to make sure we were both okay and help us out. Unfortunately, that was our Decider over almost as quickly as it started, thanks to the partial removal of the front axle 😂🤦‍♂️

On the plus side… the new winch was completely unscathed! So that’s something 😂

After some clever use of ratchet straps, we managed to get the truck dragged back to the pits. With plenty of help from the other teams we got her loaded back onto the trailer.

A massive thank you to everyone who offered us parts, tools and even workshop space to try and get us back out racing. Unfortunately, the damage was just a bit too extensive and we needed more parts than we could realistically sort at the event.

Once home, we had another load of help from our amazing friends at the yard getting the truck unloaded and tucked away in the barn ready for surgery over the next few months.

Definitely not how we wanted Decider 2026 to go, especially after what happened last year, but that’s racing. We’re both okay, the truck can be rebuilt and we’ll be back 💪

Although I think it’s safe to say it might finally be time for a new front axle… 👀

So the question is…

What axle should we go for? Y61? D2? Something else entirely? 🤔

Time to build her back stronger 💪 🛠️

So not quite the event we had planned, but due to unforeseen circumstances and the hot weather unfortunately this weekend’s racing was cancelled at the last minute.

The Gomm racing team did an amazing job in the lead up to this event to get the truck ready but it wasn’t all wasted after we still got some time to play as we helped take down the course.

The course itself looked challenging but like it was gonna be good fun so gutted when we heard the news that the event had been cancelled just an hour before qualifying.

I’m sure we will be back to compete in an another howling Wolf event to see What all the hard work and time would’ve been like. Now it’s time to get ready for our next event.

🚨 It’s finally here… the Gigglepin GP100 Winch! 💪🔥

After months of planning our Challenge Truck build, it’s time to unbox one of the biggest upgrades yet. This thing is an absolute beast, and we can’t wait to get it fitted and put it to the test this season! 🏁
