Just slow down Ben.

You need to put all that excitement into your driving style instead.

Is it race day ALREADY! ARRRRGH! Just a very quick note to all of you who are travelling to Vegas this weekend, have safe travels, enjoy the event and enjoy your stay!

We have some fine weather forecast for the whole weekend, so that means its going to be COLD! And the nippleometer agrees. (You need to take my word for it and no ..... Im not going to post a pic Ben).

Thank you to all the lads and lasses who are travelling from as far as Whangarei, Taranaki and Wellington (to name a few) to help out over the weekend, your suppoort has made this event possible!

From today I am no longer event organiser fulla thingie, but a mad as a rat competitor (you might have more chance of having questions answered now!) so ALL event enquiries are to be directed to:

Event Director - Kevin Folley - 027 500 7160
Clerk Of The Course - Gary Lodge - 027 476 5791


Have a great weekend all, and if it aint broke ..... you must drive like Ben. (Bro, its not the sound of it that counts (even though thumpy vibrations are exciting) ..... its how you use it, haha)

WHAT AN AWESOME DAY!

Well, the reputation of the Rotorua Winch Challenge is alive and kicking, seeing some HARD winching and a little carnage thrown into the mix, with some awesome efforts put in by the lads and lasses keen (or crazy) enough to give it a go!

Today was intended to be a "warm up" to the Mamaku Madness to come, however in true RWC fashion a few were "owned" by the stages set at the Horohoro farm.

Todays tally of breakages and DNFs may certainly have a few enduring a sleepless night tonight, but tomorrow is another day ..... :)

Have a great weekend all! I know we will be :)

die hard fawdy fan thru and thru and the ground pound from the tree eighty tree is awesome

every so often I could hear this braaap braaap noise from the forest that drowned out everything else
I think it was from this little yellow n green thing

I nearly followed ya at night coz you had brighter neons

but the subtle tones of AC/DC emitting from the fawdy won me over again

bit concerned about the gay antics of the driver and his winch maori though :wink:
