I wish there were more of us to cover both trophy and challenge classes, makes it tough with only the 2 of us.

Challenge guys are always more than welcome to come grab us during the comp to get some off-track action shots anytime though if you want to. There's never any obligation to buy our photos, we do this cause we love it.

For those who do want to buy any of our photos from this year or any other year, we're having a 15% OFF EVERYTHING SALE till the end of November. That's all the action photos, compilation prints and everything else on our site too. Just shoot us an email if needed.

Question - Why where competitors charged more to enter the park than spectator's? The bloke at the gate didn't have a clue what he was doing either.

I paid $27.50 ($55 for Scott and I) and the 2 spectators with us paid $20 each.

I know it's not "Firm" but was also told this in person from committe and club members.

$102.50, 2 adults and 2 kids and I competed as well. hoping to never go back. Not good enough to pay that much money and not have a drive all weekend since I am a navi. Whatever though.

I have been shooting Challenge Class for the past few years, but this round I was on holidays. However I have made the decision not to cover it anymore. It is a lot of work to present the images for you guys just to look at, and the support in terms of buying images has been zero.

Idon't know why you are complaining its still cheaper than going there for a weekend not competing.We payed $20 as well $5per day $5 per night per person.you only pay extra for a 4wd if you are going to be 4wding around the park not just the track in and out.The costings are on the emu creek website but i know for the competitors there is normally some sort of deal.So considering you only paid $7.50 to compete whats the big deal????

You can't pop your rear wheels off the ground a little and call that entertaining :D :D :D .I do agree it needs to be clear as to why though. See you at the night run on sat if your trucks fixed

i paid 27.50 too, and also found it odd that i paid more then the spectators with me. i recall most other parks i compete at usually work a deal to allow competitors in cheaper or for free, seeing as the comp brings people to the park. poor guy on the counter was certainly never briefed on wot to do thats for sure
