Looks like another awesome Cliffhanger by Navrun. Wish we were there to join in on the fun. Most of the rigs look pretty awesome this year with lots of big mods, sure to be plenty of high speed action out on those paddocks to test the skill of both car and team. Gee is Queensland going to take honou...

Hobzee and Rudi, You 2 have organised an excellent event for the last 3 years that I have been attending and to be fed, showered and all of the other luxuries that go with the event in the middle of Australia that is an awesome accomplishment.

Re: Drop arms

Its fun that it was only Saturday morning that Muppet had rang me and canceled and order for a set of arms that he had placed a order in for one week after the outback had finished and up until Monday week ago he still wanted them. And they are the some set up as these arms. Good to see Muppet is k...

What type of format is the run when you say GPS run. Is it going to be a case of here's 50 points, go and get them, or is it point to point.

What is the latest time we can get there to start.

Now we're talken.

Especially SS17.

This is going to be one wild Cliffhanger with all these 20 stages now set.

Muppet started a good one last year while we were waiting for the 2m deep MUD stage, Barrel racing like the horses do but in a slightly modified 4B. Could be SS21.

Dave, is there actually going to be driving in this event for longer than a few hundred metres. I am very sure (first hand information from some big names) that a lot of people would be more interested if you had some longer stages where we actually got to drive our cars for more than 3 minutes.
