[mudlva]

hi there

this sounds realy cool

what is the requirements for the vehicles competeing?
ie wofs, roll cages, trailored vehicles, helmets, seatbelts requirements
.......etc etc

what is the actual structure of the meeting? ie is it going to be 30minutes timed sections last man still moving wins etc

getting the stuck vehicles recovered by whom?

I heard on an 4x4 clubs email that there is going to be water available to wash down with? is this salt water or fresh water, took me years to get all the salt out of the chassis after doing the old clevedon mud drags.

sorry about all these questions but some body had to ask

anyway looking forward to the day

cheers Rohan

Been seen before that a 1300cc 31" tyred zuk has shat all over a 4.2L 35" tyred pootrol in a drag race.
Just saying

I am getting a bit worried about the numbers, not the lack of numbers but how many we can take. The phone has been flat out, good response from the 4WD people and the trade stands are filling as well. Radio Hauraki have come on board with a big campaign for us so that should ensure the spectators. NZ 4WD magazine has done a great article and all this really helps. This was only posted on “Offroad Express” late Friday night and its up to 460 views. We may have to do


a pre entry so we can limit the numbers as I don’t want the event to re 0w9semble Auckland traffic on a long weekend.

Your thoughts guys

Ha ha you mentioned full mud anything goes and no rules in the one sentence and now surprised that you have been ran over
Any red blooded block worth his mudtyres will be wanting to be there to show that HE is the MAN
Im stoked that the numbers are lining up for you
Top effort

[Jungle]

The mud drags sound great.

Bit worried about the open paddock, slippery surfaces and trucks going in all directions.
Sounds like a demolition derby with 2.5 tonne vehicles.

And just a reminder. Indemnity forms don't stand up in court. They just mean that you didn't do your best to identify the hazards and keep people safe.

Cheers

Gary I think it would be a wise choice to put a limit on entry as you could have every man and his dog out there, dont want it to turn out to be over run and to over crowded.



Iam very keen, looking forward to it .

Cheers

I know I'll get jumped on for this, but maybe limiting it to members of any 4wd club could work to keep numbers down?

[phraza]

I'm keen! The Jeep looooves mud!

[Filthy4x4]

Ok people what numbers do you think we should limit it too

Gary, I think it may be an idea to figure out what the maximum capacity can be for entrants, also if you are doing 10 trucks at a time for 30mins each then may be best to work out if your wanting to have 1/2/3 sets of 30mins through out the day.

Then just work out how long you want the event to go for, then you should have a fair idea on how many trucks you can handle.

Cheers

Then you also have to factor in recovery times aswell, especially when recoveries can go well over 30 minuites

[DieselBoy]

I think one of my trucks is still running, i think it might be The50.

Better come and add some 2Stroke and AvGas smoke to the mix
