For the record the only things I can report are what you are talking about. It is taken very serious and will not be tolerated. So lets just suggest that you and every other competitor take the necessary spares to see them thru the week as every time outside assistance is required, 100 points are deducted from your score.
Oh you can keep ya 50 too!!

Sheeesh you've gone and gotten all seriou like......


twas jokes Jonsey.. We all know the rules and wouldn't expect anyone to bend them. I'd rather lose honestly than win by cheating.

But thanks for letting everyone know that you guys are serious and wont tolerate that stuff. It's good to know there's no buddy stuff goin' on

Cheers Dan

Cross posted to both OBC threads
________________________________
G’day all
As per last year 4wheelingOZ online webzine (http://www.4wheelingoz.com) will be covering the OBC in as much detail as possible. As an amateur effort it requires lots of input from competitors and spectators. For this year I’m looking for any:
Photo submissions
Comp vehicle build ups and event prep
Competitor diaries
Competitor profiles and stories (and give your sponsors a plug)
Stories from spectators or marshalls (words, photos, diaries, etc.)
Everything OBC!

Any and all assistance welcomed. As the webzine is an online one there is no limit to the coverage or number of stories or number of photos.

As always, Im also looking for people to help putting the webzine together.

Cheers

Andrew
(see you all at the Show n Shine, night run and the Quarry :armsup: )
