This event will be an ORE event only, and run strictly under the ORE Banner. The event will comprise of 3 vehicle teams. 2 of the 3 vehicles must have winches. There must be 2 people per vehicle. At this time we are limiting the event to a maximum of 6 teams (18 vehicles).
There will be a camping area available near the hut, with long drop toilets close by. Plus there will be limited sleeping in the hut for women. Costa Plenty will be open from the Friday evening (29th) for competitors and spectators wishing to camp over.
Scrutineering/drivers briefing will commence at 10.00AM on the Saturday (30th May). The event will start at midday on the Saturday until midnight. Then will continue from 7.00AM Sunday morning until midday Sunday. Prize giving, and then a BBQ will be held Sunday afternoon/evening and those wishing to camp over Sunday night and make their way home Monday will be able to do so.
Entry fees and other information will be available in the next month or so, and Registration of teams and payment of entry fees will be early in the New Year. Dave (Dace) will be handling the Registration/entry fee side of it.
So start organising your teams & co-pilots, as this will be an event not to be missed! Further information will be posted from time to time, so check back regularly.
(Please try & keep postings on this thread on topic).
Still a while away untill the new year

And now there is 3 confirmed teams
I will be taking 2 further teams as reserves, incase any of the 6 fail to pay the entry fee's on time (which is not yet set but will be with plenty of notice)
also, teams must have at least 2 ORE or KIWI4X4 drivers, after all, this is an ORE event!
remember, only 3 places to go, I would hate for some one to miss out!!
