just a thought, compress the event to just friday night stage,
and follow the rest as your first list has suggested,
this might make it so less time off work for some Northisland boys ??
we are still travelling the same,but could become tourists for a day

just a though.
travelling north of Auckland for us is a bloody long way to
compete with you guys,

all help greatly appreciated dude

but the first thing I thought of is that not many welly boys have the 6 point rollcage built to spec for this event :(

besides that, the welly boys have known for a bloody long time that this event is happening, hell I noticed the last post on the challenges forum was just over a year ago :shock:

found a few more entries today, 1 outlaw and a challenge guy to compete against Tim (can ya beat Stan, Tim :mrgreen: )

its gonna happen :D

Its not necessarily his own stomping ground dude, to the best of my knowledge I don't thing he's been to Rallywoods, the Tararua boys tend to play in the neighbouring forest, so while he may be familiar with the type of clay/mud we have, he won't have a clue about the tracks.

Challenge yourself to beat him dude, stages aren't going to be too long so the quicker the navi and the better he thinks about where to winch from the better chance you have of cleaning up :wink:

Skiddy, I am pleased you managed to pick all your toys up and put them back in your cot, you would have been scared if I had to come round there and shoved them up your a$$..

And you are correct, it is going to happen whether you are helping or not..

Pleased to know that there are more entries, I have had three people on the phone today and can confirm that there is one team from the Levin club, one very possible team from Abbots Creek club.

So, with that said please ensure that you do complete an entry form and email to either Skid or myself.

Cheers
Reece

Righto folks, here are the tracks and a rough guide to how the weekend will run timewise.
The SI boys aren't turning up till close to lunchtime friday so once they are scrutineered we'll look at getting into it.
The Friday arvo stages will more than likely be over fairly quickly as they are just teasers to get you in the right mood for Saturday, so there should be plenty of time to finish setting up your campsites etc before we kick off the night stage.


Friday Morning Scrutineering, Set up camp etc

Friday Afternoon
1 Rovers Revenge
2 Temptation Climb
3 Pines Attack

Friday Night
4 Woolshed Night Speed

Saturday stages done in blocks of 2 at a time

Saturday
5 Highway to Hell
6 Hebden Climb

7 Lookout Drive
8 Little Dipper

9 Lulu
10 Sliding Away

11 Fawk Hill Mystery
12 Diff Dinger Woopee

Saturday Night
13 Evening Imagination
14 Ayers Rock Night Trip

Sunday Morning
15 Hamburger Hill
16 Wong Way
17 River Rafting
18 Cullums Way

Sunday Afternoon Results and pack up camp etc

If it really concerns folks as to which one of the group of kindergarten kids gets in power, then its relatively simple to cast a vote before the weekend :wink:
