Offroad-Express

This will take place at Lincoln's Dad's place at Settlement Road, Kaiwaka. A total of 12 hazards.

Usual competition rules Helmet & Recovery Rope/Strop required

I will travel down on the Saturday 21 May and peg some hazards then Sunday we will have a drivers briefing at 08:30 for a 08:45 start on the Sunday morning (22May). I will be charging each driver $10.00 as a donation to the Land Owner for the use of his land.

Hazards will be pegged so that Shiney type vehicles should be able to get to 80 or 60 points without a lot of effort, Zertos will be pretty much rally type vehicles only on most of the hazards

ORE members that wish to attend, more than welcome, but dont be afraid to let me know that you are going to turn up. (Before the Saturday Please)
Cheers Dan

Well I will be there

Looking forward to it. Haven't done a trials since last year. Will be a great day I am sure.

I'm aiming to be there in the Lada.

Hmm... Two brothers competing in their stock-standard, underpowered, small 4wd's...
Should be fun!

This sounds interesting, so shineys will be OK ?? Keen as to take part.......do you need a roll cage or anything like that ??

Cheers

Hey Dan, chalk me up as a marshal/scorer whateva

Hey Dan, would love to go, but at this stage it would probably be a no. The truck is still in pieces so won't have enough time to get it ready.

You should be saving gas money for Rotorua or be competing, not marshaling

Hmmmm... MUD!!! Count me in

Ahaha, there is most definitely gunna be mud there. I haven't been up for a couple of weeks, but it was a bit wet then. And that's not even out the back (where it's WAAAAAY wetter)

Damn I hope the Lada gets a WoF!

You don't need a WOF to drive on a farm just get into it!!

trouble is... There's 100km's between here and the farm, most of which is patrolled by cops

Maybe I'll just go to the WoF place my friend did, not test drive needed

Oh, and there's 9 vids of the Lada on my channel now, if anyones interested. http://www.youtube.com/user/SP450andLE

God youtube takes ages to upload vids...

I'll let ya's know the outcome.

If you have a fixed body you dont need a cage. This next bit applies to everyone, If you bend your vehicle becasue you chose to drive it somewhere, dont come crying to me as I dont care.

And another 500 kgs too

good point. still a zuk is 200kg lighter than a lada. and my zuk has the back seats and carpet taken out. thats got to be 20kg. Makes up for my larger proportions

Want to help out with a working bee on my truck so I can come too?

Just kidding, I'm not going to be ready in time but keen to come up to watch it.

Yep same cost to enter $10 per driver you can cross enter drivers in a vehicle.

Last club champs we had 27 drivers in 20 vehicles

Depending on the number of vehicles/drivers and hte difficulty of the hazards we may split into 2 groups

Watching by Non Drivers WILL BE Permitted, if you're a good bastard

Hopefully I can make it... And hopefully I make the cut

At this point Iam not to sure were Iam at, have to see closer to the time might end up watching, truck is playing up which I hate and want to get out there and have fun

Well at the farm on the weekend, Went for a small drive over it and it is getting very wet and slippery, the grass is long due to no stock on there and the mud is soft, will be great fun next weekend.

I'm keen to come up! safari should be all good to go by then, but don't think ill compete.

Would be good to catch up with some of the Whangarei guys as i tagged along on their far north Ahipara trip last labour weekend

cheers
