was great to whizz around on the quads, even Wisard showed a turn of speed-albeit unawares i was still on the back!! there are some fantastic stages set out, they will provide quite the challenge... those of us that thought we knew all the costa tracks....WRONG!!!!
Haviing the full support of the landowners, Goldie and Sue, really helps make this event the one to attend next year! they know their property inside out, and have enligtend the working committee to some fantastic new bits to play!
I strongly suggest finalising teams in the new year, as space is limited, but reccomend EVERYONE attends ( the whole shootin caboodle for you southern types). as its the long weekend we plan to stay in on the sunday nite, and maybe do a tour around on Monday before heading off

so bring ya 4x4s and be prepared to be totally thrilled

see you all there, if not before

Please note, we are only running 6 teams of 3 trucks.
And the criteria, to be clear are 2 trucks MUST have working winches, as well as the normal safety requirements (hooks, seatbelts, etc)
So far I have 1 complete team (suz1k and friends) and a few who wish to join but as far as I know, have not formed a team
If you have a team formed, PM me to cement you position in the challenge cause once all the 6 teams are filled, THERE WILL BE NO MORE
FYI, the others who have confirmed there intent to enter are Mike, beercruiser, Haynzy, Crispy and Taz
I urge you to form teams cause as soon as I have 6 confirmed teams, THATS IT!!
also please pm me if you would like to help run the Weekend
Cheers
Dace.

Actually, I was wrong (first time for everything!)
1 from south (Bulletproof)
and 2 from north (Mudzilla and mate)
they are calling them selves the "OIL BURNERS"
Reece, got a name for ya team yet? maybe the "MISSANS"
