Lowmead 3 car in CQ Nov 5,6 noms open

[gudge]

So have all spots been filled? No last minute withdrawals? Does anyone really think they will struggle to be ready? Don't be afraid to ask for help if u need it, we all want everyone to be at their best so there are no excuses lol.

And another reminder to make sure u have your 3RD PARTY INSURANCE EXTENSION ! remember if u don't have it you won't be aloud to race. This is not just CTP on your rego, u have to ring up and organise with your insurer.

2 more sleeps till we leave and I'm so pumped, its a good thing aswell cause I doubt I will be in bed tonight before 1am.

Ground anchors "/
Gee mosko I know all 3 of us don't have one? And there not exactly easy to buy off the shelf kind of product... What happens there as there is alot of trucks that don't have one?!

[gudge]

Honestly guys I wouldn't stress about the ground anchor. If it's not listed in the required Equipement your not going to be expected to carry one. If there is a stage than needs one, one will be provided ( same as last year). It wasn't carried on any trucks, just left in an area and had to be moved to be used.

[Mosko111]

Yep, exactly as Gudge just said, the same question you've asked was brought up on the facebook page. And as Alf has just said, I dare say one will be provided and placed in a designated area where it has to be returned to after use.

Directions for those coming from down south to Mosko.

[gudge]

Turn right at Miriam vale instead of left. Got that phil? hahaha

[Mosko111]

Which ways have you travelled in, in the past Phil?
Goat and i took the road in near the Driver reviver rest stop last time we went down and it was pretty slow going.
I'd nearly suggest that heading all the way up to Miriam Vale and then back down would end up taking about the same amount of time??

[pootrollin]

I know where to go but for others coming from the south. Its not a bad run from the first Lowmead turn off, I think its John Clifford Way. Then left into Clarkes Rd. Sound about right.

[Shieldsy]

does anyone kno if there will be sercurity???? if so, a rough number would be handy

[Mosko111]

Security numberS will be 3-

T.C
Clarkey
Clarkies shotgun.....

[Shieldsy]

a shotgun is only good for 100 feet.

[Mosko111]

Yeah but T.C is a long range missile!!

Awesome weekend guys and gals with some awesome drives. iv got a few videos ill upload later tonight.

[horndog]

WHAT AN AWESOME EVENT. Massive thanks to the organizers, clarkey, sponsors, officals and anyone else that made this event happen and run as smooth as it did. This was my first event as a driver and i dont think i stopped smiling all event. Every stage was great and fun to drive, except the reversing down the creek with a radiator blocking all my vision (my fault i guess haha). Car went awesome and it only broke once. But thanks to Jason St John we were up and running again in no time. So a massive THANKS to Crazy for keeping me in the event. Anyway enjoy the pics that my better half snapped over the weekend.

[gudge]

Awsome job on the weekend horndog, that car is an awsome machine. Some great photos there aswell!

Big thanks and congratulations to tt, tc , Clint , jonty and Dowie and the rest of the Gladstone 4wd club and anyone else who helped out, I really think you put on one of the best 4wd comps in Australia. Not very often you can attract 45 built trucks to the one event and have everyone leave with smiles from ear to ear.

Pumping fury had an absolute ball and loved all the stages, awsome mix of technical driving, High speed and team work. Big thanks to cq's fastest navi Andrew for jumping in, and pickles for getting my truck together and finished while I was at work 1 week out, it went better than I could ever hope for.

Gunna sort through the photos tonight and post em up.

[Pauwolf]

Thanks to all the organizers for an awesome event.

Thanks to the Allset team, Scotty, Jake, Mick and dangers for bringing me into their team
No DNFs and no breakages all weekend, it was a great debut for the 80 hope to keep it up.
