if i have my new truck done by the middle of this year we are looking at this event for 2010 as well, they have alot more scope for huge buggies over there, and the last time i checked it's not that expensive to leave a vehicle over there and do a few events

the Tuff Truk 2009 is 27-29 March, located north of Sydney, which is south of Brisbane.
