Looks like the typical 'Orange Toperi' storm was 1 day early this year. Those who lived through it last year will know what I mean.

We had a cracker last night, roofs dislodged and tress uprooted. Hope no-one was on the mountain during this one.

At least is should settle the dust for the spectators.

Can't wait, see you all there.

Awesome comp and tracks guys. Well done.
I know its only the second year running and im sure there will be many more years to go but my only gripe is , why you didnt get 2 tracks runing at the same time on day 1. We were team 39 and we stood around watching all day and got our first drive at 6pm :? Could have been running 2 tracks and had everybody done by 4.

Anyways thats just a suggestion for next year when we WILL be back.
Congrats!!!

A big :armsup: to the Canobolas guys, you did an amazing job of running Toperi, tracks were drivable, scoring was fair, recoveries that needed the help of the excavator were done in a quick and safe manner.
Great family friendly atmosphere, good sponsors, great facilities.

A massive thanks to Tony for the use of his fantastic property, hope you guys will be permitted to run the event again next year.

All our Kamikaze guys had a great weekend and were happy that our Hilux team took out 4th place. :armsup:

Absolutely brilliant and unique comp. Good to work as a team, loved the way you could park your car in the one spot all day and just get in line with a couple of teams before you. Being team 30 was a long wait, but soon got over it when our time came to compete. Constructive criticism, if not, as Buddha suggested, run 2 events, start track 2 first as it was more spectator friendly and was hard to see stage 1 until the crowd thinned out between the 2.
Well done and definately see you again next year.

Awesome competition with a friendly atmosphere that is unique to Toperi alone.

The recovery guys did a great job recovering my zook which ended up on its roof. There was absolutely no damage incurred during the recovery and it was carried out in a professional safe manner and best of all it was fast.

The effort made by the Canobolas club was apparent everywhere you looked.

Bring on Toperi 2010.

Thanks from the ACT4WD club.

PS..........more pics!!
