Not quite as perilous ...but here's an example of technical winching that our very own D3 crew got up to back in the day

I remember that well! Iconix had managed to side slip into a ditch and his car was resting with the off side rear corner against the side of the ditch. Chris has a very powerful hydraulic winch on his D3, and Andrew had one of those Warn Powerhouse winches with the built in compressor.

It was a great demonstration of teamwork that got the car out with minimal damage. The fact that there was 2 x 2.7 tonne cars doing the work probably helped a lot.
