Hi all,

Sorry for the delay but I've been moving house.

Results and stage times/penalties are posted on the Manukau 4WD site at http://www.manukau4wd.org.nz/links.htm

Hi all,

Entries to Manukau Winch Challenge are now closed.
See other post in this forum.

Hi all, Entries are now closed. I will however accept wait list entries. For these I need the full application form emailed to me but no money paid. I will email all entrants a couple of days after full payment is due for their arrears. Any entries which are not fully paid after that may be declined ...

Pity, the black FJ is always a sight to see.

Hi all, Manukau Winch Challenge is on November 13 & 14 at Onewhero, just South of Pukekohe. There are four classes of competition. All of which have entries. The most entries are in Modified class (14), about half the field. There are a few places available. For entry details and forms go to www ...

would be real cool to see your truck in action again Ben ,one of the few 40s I really like ,its a credit to you mate . cheers mate, im working on the logistics of it at the moment, but should be able to get up there to give the fawdy a run. the ropes probably half rotten by now so expect some ...

Gonna fill ours out this week and get them to u next week still room for 2 trucks in modified

That'll make 13 in modified now (had one other this morning).
Wouldn't hurt to have some more in the other classes though. Especially Challenge.
Dave

Hi all,
A quick update for you.
The places are filling. There are now 24 entries. Four confirmed from South Island and six from lower North Island.
10 Modified, 3 Challenge, 5 Club, 6 Manukau
Dave

whats the limit of trucks for this event.. As I know there are a few trucks heading up from the south.. 4-5 As of this evening we have a total of 13 North Island competitors and an indication of five from the South Island. It seems we may be hosting the NZ1 event too which is basically all the same ...

One verbal SI entry, three from Wellington area, several from Auckland area three days in. We hope we will also be hosting the NZ1 event (NI vs SI) at the same time. Entry form and caravan rental details are available from www.manukau4wd.org.nz Click on 'Useful Links' Other information there as it ...

Yes, it seems I was a bit premature with my comment. I was told emergency services were not required and I therefore assumed that Tim was in fact ok. I was not told, however, that Tim had left the event prior to their arrival and that he had suffered an injury. Any injury suffered in our sport must ...

Hi all, Yes, it's on again. Manukau Winch Challenge 2015 will commence on Friday evening November 13 2015 and will complete on the following evening. The event will be the same as our other events of the last few years. Friday night stages followed by a full Saturday competition allowing for a prize ...

Hi all, Manukau Winch Challenge 2015 entry form will be available from www.manukau4wd.org.nz from tomorrow. When you get to the site I think you need to click on 'Useful Links'. Being a month later we hope to be able to utilise areas of the farm last used about five years ago. But it all depends on ...

Results, stage by stage and final places are now on the Manukau site here: m Still working on the overalls. Oops!!! There was a scoring error! It has now been corrected on the above link. Congratulations to Bernie and Craig. First in Modified. I'm quite gutted that we couldn't get it right first ...

guttered we couldnt make it up this year Any results Cheers Leigh Hi Leigh, Sorry you guys couldn't make it too. The Tararua boys along with you lot and the Manukau fellows would have made it a really sharp event. I took a recuperation day off yesterday but I will post final results on the Manukau ...

Hi Tim et al, The time line looks like this at the moment: 3:00 to 7:00pm Scrutineering at Onewhero Rugby Club as competitors are available. 7:00pm Marshal briefing at farm entrance 7:30pm Drivers briefing at Onewhero Rugby Club 7:38pm Sunset 8:00pm Competition begins providing the marshals are ...

Well that could be the coming thing Steve. Bernie has been crapping on about that for the last few weeks too!

Dave

All,

It seems we are short on marshals for Saturday 18th. If you can help, please PM me and I'll put you in contact with Ant, the Head Marshal.

Thanks.

Dave.

All, Another update on entries. There are now 28 entries. Only room for another couple. Manukau 5, Club 8, Challenge 3, Modified 12. Those who haven't fully paid up need to get a wriggle on. Any competitor owing money (other than Saturday dinner) to the event will not start. I have finished ...

Dave, the only reason i posted the comment is because i was hoping that the format did not lend itself to abuse where some competiors might be finished hours before others and that having unlimited time to complete repairs also favoured those with large service crews. It seem that you have taken ...

:( And how do you enforce the repair time limit? And finally, the rules refer to groups in 1.6 where group selection is detailed and again in 49.2 where a 15min repair time is associated with a group. Nowhere in the rules is the function of a group effectively detailed. At Manukau, there is one ...

And another thing. I think this is a first for Manukau. We have our first all ladies team entering in Manukau Class. They will be driving a red Jeep Wrangler rag top. I would ask that other competitors give them every assistance they can and advise me or Ant (head marshal) on channel 19 if there are ...

:( so that means if ur quick you could end up being first on many of the stages? Not very sporting? Rotating groups and starting order gives everyone a fair crack at the tracks? And how do you enforce the repair time limit? If you think it through you will realise that there are some basic maths to ...

Hi all, Spent Saturday in the shitty weather with several other keen ones at the farm. It looks as though there will be six stages set for Friday night. Same as last year one group (Manukau and Club) will do three stages and the other group (Challenge and Modified) will do the other three. As for ...

Hi all, As at 7 this morning there were 24 entries received. 12 Modified, 3 Challenge, 6 Club, 2 Manukau and 1 from someone who can't fill in forms. If you think you have entered but have not had an email reply from me then please PM me with your email address and I'll get back to you. There is room ...
