Thinking of this date for the 2nd running of CARNAGE CANYON.

Can't seem to find anything that clashes with the date

same format and track as last year.

CARNAGE CANYON
Landcruiser Mountain Park 13-14 OCT 2007


This event is a timed drive down the course of the Brisbane River over natural terrain finishing at the “Dinner Holeâ€

[BIG GQ]

I can't wait. Spewin I decided not to compete last year so I better do it this year.

[80lsy gq]

Shane..Logan club is also thinking of around that date for the Logan Challenge(not sure exactly yet)...might be an idea for you an Marshy to nut out a date so the events dont clash...it would be a shame to have to decide between one or the other

Yeh, just read the rest of the thread and PM'd him but with the tyre size limit it wouldn't be much of a conflict anyway.

SHANE HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT ANOTHER CLASS OF UP TO 33" TYRES SO SOME OF THE SMALLER RIGS CAN COMPETE....

[HeathGQ]

I think the issue is its a timed event, and as such, you must have a roll cage. If you have a cage - Just do it, even you only have 33's.

I AM HOPING TO DO THE EVENT ANY WAY BUT ONLY ON 31"S IN A ZOOK

[Willy Hilux]

Does the $100 fee cover park entry (for tow vehicles as well)??

3 classes is enough as big tyres do not help much on this course.

drivers get in free but everyone else pays.

there is no extra charge to watch the comp, just normal fees.

[howie]

WHOSE PLANING ON COMPETING

I reckon you'll be fine if you drive smart.... dont try to win, but try to finish.

[big red]

the track is open if any teams want to drive through and check it out.
just start from the kings road campground where the dunny's are and drive downstream to the dinner hole.

Can navi's have a wrist restraint instead of a window net?

[big red]

Can navi's have a wrist restraint instead of a window net?

no because if they get out to stack or guide there is no one to check if they put it back on again and its hard for the next official to see as they go past.

wrist restraint for a DRIVER is ok though.

[STIKA]

what about if the driver get out to rock stack

[big red]

what about if the driver get out to rock stack

we just have to trust him to have it on before he takes off as it would be harder to do when he's racing and its also not likely for him to leave the car .

[big red]

Just a reminder to get your CTP extension

not long to go now

[big red]

I wonder if any one is gunna beat last years times ...

There was no entries in A class last year so that record is still up for grabs

Shane Gerrish holds the C class record with a best time of 10 min 24 secs and the finals time of 10 min 39 secs .

Jeff White hold the Outright and B class record with a time of 8 min 34 secs.

there has been some big mods happening in the comp scenes so there could be some new records this year

[big red]

4WDTV will have two cameras on site so those who can't make it will get to see some of the action.

[big red]

i will be heading up thursday night to set up and will be out of contact after that so if anyone has any queries please ask soon.
