Re: Cancellation of the Superwinch Tuff Truck Challenge 2010!!!

In my opinion, having 3 events run fairly close to gether is a huge ask for most competitiors financially, not to mention the time off/away from work. Alot of competitiors are organising to run down in the south island this year, which isnt long after the superwinch, which in turn is just after ...
