as for tree's yeah you can drive around them like i did in mums car or if it was me in the shorty you can bounce off them like a pinball machine (not always faster, but always more expensive)

Best of luck to the competitors. its gonna be an awsome weekend for you. The mud don't worry bout it, just remember you got a navy for a reason, so get em dirty, its there job.

Post by **digsy** » Tue Sep 16, 2008 7:35 am

Hmmmm... I think I can guess who it is... there isn't that many jeeps in rocky rolling round on 35s and Doubles... in saying that there are enough that use them that I can't make the call online...

I've been talking to a heap of competitors and everyone seems really keen!!

Looking forward to this...

It is great that there are a couple of non-rockhampton teams too... I know some of them have been in the 3 car before but will make for some great fun... read rivalry... if the crown leaves rockhampton... imagine the smack talk from the outertown teams then... ha ha... rocky boys beaten on their own turf!!!

Post by **buggerluxkid** » Tue Sep 16, 2008 10:52 am

having teams from out side of rocky will make for awsome competition between the towns. Its sure to be a challenging weekend

Post by **tiler0172** » Tue Sep 16, 2008 11:59 am

been out there today and have cleared a heap of spectator points on winch hills and mud stages so it will be good for them to.
so be prepared as spectators can always drive the hills or so they say hahaha.
cheers

Imagine if bilo won it!!! theyd have a parade down the main bloody street all there family would be there (insert inbred joke here!!!) haha, but no it should be good, it would be great if a round could be set up in glady or bundy or bilo next year,

Post by **ELF_83** » Tue Sep 16, 2008 5:01 pm

yeah would be good but there are only 3 or 4 people doin all the work for this one event and it is a lot of work, with stuff behind the scenes that most don't think of, so my hat goes off to the guys organising it cause i know many of them would prefer to drive but someone has to make the sacrifice and organise it and it seems to be the same guys every year, They are really good at it now lastt year was the smoothest running comp I ever been in, well organised with great tracks and just a ton of laughs and fun with mates. This years tracks from what i have seen will be even better.

Post by **muk-i** » Tue Sep 16, 2008 8:01 pm

i wouldnt be to smart ,,wait untill u see the biloela team,,,,

Post by **buggerluxkid** » Tue Sep 16, 2008 10:01 pm

well said elf thanks heaps. as for other rounds the thought has crossed my mind, i'd be keen to help organise it but just gettin a crew together to to the hard yards would be the hard part.

I hear rumours of a stretched suzuki on 37's with previous experience in the Engel Winch series and Narva series?
They have recently moved to the area with work and are competing in a few local events to get back into the comp scene...

Post by **buggerluxkid** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 11:15 am

stretched suk on 37's, somehtin different, good to see. as for loose nuts n bolts theres gonna be some good competition to knock them off the podium.

Post by **PICKELS** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 3:01 pm

ive talked to one of the bilo boys and apparently there runnen a couple of souped up V8 patrols with some mega horse power so should be good to see.

Post by **Mosko111** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 3:31 pm

yeah, cant wait to see all the awesome cars that rock up!! as for helping out, if my car had been up and running earlier i would have offered to drive up from gladdy and give you guys a hand, even if i was just clearing lantana and rubber vine to give the spectators a good view id help out, its a pitty how its always only a few who do the hard yakka, anyhows, we will be up fri lunch time so if you's see the white cruiser with custom offroad stickers on it or the blue chopped 80 towing a lux come over for a chat would be good to get to know everyone

Post by **ELF_83** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 6:42 pm

if any one isn't to busy round friday lunch or arvo i need to get my mums car and me out there from glenlee, and as i don't have a licence i ain't keen on driving, or a ride for my mum back home after she takes the car down for me.

Post by **buggerluxkid** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 6:53 pm

those bilo boys sounds like there gonna give a couple of local teams some good competition, it'll be the team work that might bring em down thow. its good to have the power but lets see if they work together. i will keep me eye out for ya mosko111 i should be out there to see ya come through the gate. have a good trip up aye.

Post by **Mosko111** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 8:19 pm

hey elf is glenlee anywhere on the way through between us gladdy boys entering rocky and heading to the park? if it is we are planning to be up there around 11ish, and should have a passenger who could drive it out there for you, but yeah thats just last resort for you if you cant find anyone else, and yeah rito buggerluxkid cheers it should be a cruisy trip up if the lux doesnt fall of the trailer haha,

Post by **buggerluxkid** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 8:24 pm

yeh even though hilux's are unbreakable (unless its mine and needs nearly everything replaced or fixed) it wouldn't be a good start to the comp.

Post by **Mosko111** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 8:37 pm

yeah im hoping the lux is unbreakable this weekend!! and my cruiser aswell lol, oh well we will just have to wait and see, is there going to be many people camping out there fri night?

Post by **buggerluxkid** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 8:39 pm
