Weather tends too go around this area, so all good. ;)
Tracks are getting done, I have set 4 already and have a crew out there tomorrow too help clear. I hope everyone is hungry as the gun club have sooooo much food (hot and cold) and coffee,water ect Mars bars chips ect. Please bring your spare fuel in fuel containers with your name on it as we have too keep all fuel in a fuel area together.
Will check back tomorrow night when I get home too answer any questions, as after then I am there too stay.
NOW ABLE TOO SAY WHAT I WANT WITHOUT FEAR OF LOOSING SALES.

do you guys have a running list of competitors and what rigs they are running with pics would be good. I think something like that available as a downland PDF from the website would be handy for spectators so they could know a bit about each vehicle and the teams and print it out if they wanted. Just a thought.

That would be good Grimbo but I dont even know what teams are going too be there 1/2 the time as alot enter on the day. NOTE not all.
Also these things take time and knowledge, 2 things we are low on ATM.
If you are donating you services that would be fantastic.

Another day has come and gone with alot of progress. We have a total of 6 tracks cleared and set, with a BIG thanks too Rob, and his apprentice Ryan, Mark (works for me). Without there help we would be way behind.
Yes this is last min due to not being able too be there any other time as we are on a shooting range that couldnt be shut down untill this week.
Most of Melbourne had rain of some description today but Lara had NONE.
As I have said B4 the rain goes around the area, so If its raining on the weekend still drop by as it wont be in Lara. (The big guy and I have a deal.) (who needs a soul anyway).
All adds are going flat chat thanks too 4WD TV, K Rock, Revheads, ABC, Leader News, ect ect.
Things are heating up. I think we have 15 buggies competing from QLD, NSW, Vic and even one from WA.
The tracks are 90% rock and BIG. Expect Big drops (one bonus is the biggest drop todate, if anyone has the balls). Big climbs some offcamber and something totally different but 100% fun.
I hope too see you all there, as this is gunna be the biggest Oz Rock yet.

Well, it's happenin'

Team Mantis have had a roll and punctured a power steering line

Mal Van had a huge roll and a half

Pete snapped a heim joint from his hydro but still managed to complete the first track

Mock, Michelle and Jamie W all got stuck on track 2.

Jamie sheared the bolts off his front driveshaft

Sean has some fluid containment issues to sort out.

The cleanest and nicest drive so far has been Sam on track 1


Good Luck to all the competitors.


Pete -5
Sam -4
