Rules say block is the last thing to be connected, first thing to be disconnected. Think it has been this way for ages. The rules actually say: "The winching cable or winch extension strap is deemed under tension any time it is connected to the winching anchor point. The anchor point must be t...

It needs to be proven first!! The Isuzu has been a bit stripped of capable bits though. We'll see. You got a suggestion? No, that's not an invitation for the rest of you!

I heard this evening that the South Island contingent has increased to five!

I THINK THAT BRINGS ENTRIES TO 31!

Final stage setting for Oram Rd was last Sunday and all looks good. Final stage setting for Onewhero is this Sunday.

Hi guys, We've been quiet here for a while but things have definitely been happening in the background. For the Saturday competition 8 new previously unused stages have been spotted.

Well October is more full than September and any later than that and land access becomes an issue (forestry fire season etc). Timing is not perfect but a winch comp in a busy month is better than no winch comp. That's for sure. Somehow (I don't know how) we all need to plan better like the southern...

Hi all,
I understand that the prize giving has now been shifted to Saturday evening.
I hope to meet with Hamish this weekend to sort out the forms etc.
They will be posted on the Manukau Club site and a link to them will be posted here. All past competitors will be emailed too.
Regards, Dave

Seldom do I respond to comments but I feel a response is warranted in this instance. Manukau 4WD Club was concerned that the cost of entry to events was becoming excessive and the potential competitor pool was becoming more limited. To try to address this, last September Manukau 4WD Club ran a winch...

Hi Taz,
My apologies for the lapse. So many things happening over the weekend. The whitebait fritters on Friday morning were fantastic. T'was the morning of the day everything became intense.
Was great to see you again after last November.
Maybe you should organise a WC soon.

Only 3 sleeps to go and then action! Friday night stages are all set apart from the cattle knocking over the pegs. Culvert has been repaired too. A good crew turned out last Saturday for final pegging. Hamish and I spent last Sunday reviewing that. All is good. Competitor information will be emailed...

DieselBoy wrote:What's the rules for service crews?

Is the main service vehicle allowed to follow the competing vehicle to the stages for servicing and repairs between stages, or are you having a designated service park.

Cheers.

Service vehicles will not be permitted in the competition area.

Hi Dave, My truck has welded on horns for the winch rope, will this be Okay in the Manukau Class? Just need to know if I need to change them or not.

Pegged out 6 stages last Sunday for the friday night. 3 for Manukau Class and 3 for the rest. One stage could be an issue for Manukau Class as we need to repair a culvert to get to it. Time will tell.

And now a most important development.
The coffee guy is arranged.
He will be at the Rugby Club on Friday afternoon and with us on Saturday too.
