Winch Challenges

Does anybody know who I would contact to find future Winch Challenge dates.

I live in the south of the South Island and would have to juggle 2 x competitors work commitments along with the logistics of getting to the North Island where most of the events are held.

It would certainly help if I could find out 6-8 months in advance of the approx dates for events.

I have checked out the 4x4 Mags but these don't seem to give me quite enough time to prepare things.

Any help would be appreciated.....

Thanks for that.

I had a look at the site, the Palmy event must be a new one, sounds interesting.........

Would love to say yes, but unfortunately July and August are out for us due to work commitments, we also have a few more things to do to the truck regarding rules and regulations and that was why we were looking at early next year....but thanks for the invite, I have heard that the Rotorua event is one not to miss....

If you're talking about the one last weekend where Don Preston rolled.....Bruce Hughes won it.
