[turps]

Cool well if you need Marshalls. I know a couple of people who might be interested in helping.
We have done the OBC and Ateaco winch challenges as marshals before.

The Australian Outback 4x4 Extreme website will be up and running in about 2-3 weeks and it will have a forum with different categories.

People will be able to find answers to their question and ask questions that have not already been answered by registering on the forum.

Communication is high on the priority list and is the reason a forum is being constructed.

Just to answer a couple of questions.
Turps:
There will be application forms on the web site for marshals and volunteers etc, so when the web site is up and running, fill out an application form and I’m sure your application will be considered favourably.

Linda:
The event has huge support from Broken Hill locals and a large number of local area property owners, so the event does have access to a diverse range of terrain, including mud.


Thanks for the positive feedback.

Cheers

Hello Everyone

Well it’s full steam ahead at the moment and the event organisers have just assessed another property for its suitability. We are very happy with the terrain this property offers and we are sure the competitors will love it, particularly the 30km rally stage.

We have more sponsors on board including ARB Tamworth, NARVA, INAWISE and Shannon Electrics.

The December news letter has been posted and can be found on the link below.
