(Vic) Engel Round 4
Myself and the team from Offroader.com.au are pleased to announce the dates and location for the grand finale of the Engel series.
Details are, 16,17,18th of October at a brand new never seen before property in Noojee.
Dinner will be at the "Outpost", http://www.theoutpostretreat.com/index.html and we will be camping less than 600m away.
The camp ground is caravan friendly for those who are too old for tents and swags
The event website, http://www.engelround4.com.au/ will be updated soon with information as we get it along with working bee dates, site photos and competitors that are entered.
Ross and I were out there today setting out the tracks and winched 12 times just getting around the property, very steep and heavily vegetated.
Stay tunned for more!
Bryan.

layed out with an emphasis on challenging the handling, maneuverability and pure raw power of the
vehicles whilst challenging the navigator and driver of the team’s physical endurance with torturous terrain
involving water crossings, hill climbs, traversal of deep ruts large rocks and generally punishing tracks.
This being the final round for the series in 2009 and more than one team sitting close with points for
Podium placing the competition should be fierce and the winning place is still well and truly open to any
number of competitors. The event will be open to the public on Sunday the 18th of October providing many

How do you apply to be a marshal ?
Re: (vic) engel round 4
hey we are puting marshal rego up on the site tomorrow but you can send me an email and i will put you down60 mad wrote:How do you apply to be a marshal ?
ross@engelround4.com.au
Pete,
The reason there were only 9 stages at ateco was that there were not enough marshals. As it was the marshals we had were to thin on the ground and there were areas of track that should have had a marshal, but didn't.
Don't get me wrong, the marshals we had worked their butts off. I got to ateco at 2pm Friday and didn't get to sleep until 2.30am Saturday, was up at 6 and worked through until 7pm Saturday. Most marshals worked as hard/long as me.
You are really hamstrung by the amount of volunteers that turn up. On another note we had heaps say the would be there, and then didn't show. Some people were turned away because we thought we had enough to fill the positions, you know.... the ones that didn't show...
I really hope this round that the marshals are in abundance, as that will enable the organisers to run all SS.
I'll be there again, doing what I can... why not it's the best seat in the house.

Yeah, I know about it too Ben. I was subtly making it public to the offending parties that these events rely on lots of support and by them not sticking to their commitments has caused dramas.
I hope round 4 is better supported. Usualy those who are the first to criticise are also those who stood back and didn't support the cause.

Dogs were doing their bit with clearing tracks.
