Opposite Lock Challenge Mudgee June 9th to 11th 2012

[mog80]

The Opposite Lock Challenge is on again June 9th to 11th 2012 at the same location as last year just outside Mudgee & once again hosted by the On All 4's 4wd Club. We will be looking for Clubs to volunteer by helping out to run tracks. As per previous years this event caters for the standard to the heavily modified 4wd & is a fun & relaxing family orientated weekend. There will be more details to follow.

[DUDELUX]

Is this what Black Rat has become now??

Just asking to see what style of event it is, and what types of courses will be running.

[brighty]

Yeh mate, it's the old Blackrat.... new sponsors hence new name


Ahhh, Had a funny feeling this would be on THAT weekend??

Our family planning dept needs a stern talking to!!! Our first bub was due on Oct long weekend in 2010 so missed out on Willowglen that year, and now our 2nd is due 9th June.....smack bang on this comp weekend too. Really enjoy headng out to your property for a play, but yeah, guess I'll have to wait until 2013 as I won't be making it this year... bugger!

I'm sure the rest of the Allcoast lads will be there to have a go!!

The only real change to last year is that we wont be running no rego for the outlaw trucks I think there was only 5 or so anyway

Any questions just ask someone in on all fours or myself but more info will be posted after Xmas

[BUSTED100]

[BUSTED100]

Details on vehicle specs and classes?

M

Same as last year and 09 blackrat, standed modifyd, open and outlaw the only change was last year it was run no rego for the outlaw trucks but all cars will need full rego with papers sighted on the day

So theres something for everyone so get your club together and more info will be sent out soon

Also this year there as much better access two lane in with truck turning bay and heaps of money spent on making more flat camp grounds thanks to Jamie and Julz

so get in early

[Black Bull]

Your truck would be outlaw Milo. Make sure you come, I want to embarass you on the travel ramp again

[4X4 shorty]

The main thing that puts a truck in outlaw is the link setup on it if its got 4 link, A frame, X link etc.That means if any suspension mount is changed from factory then that will be seen as outlaw

or

tyre size over 37s we will be going off what is written on the tyre not a height gauge

all this will be in the rules on the forms to be sent out soon, I think Cory will be sending it out soon.

Trucks will be classed on the day as well so dont worry to much just come with a helmet if you think you may be in open and window nets as well if you think you will be in outlaw

Anyway the prizes are looking to be better then ever but dont forget people we aren't playing for SHEEP STATIONS as they say

[turbo gu]

35s are a bit small for outlaw
great event but your classes could do with a bit of changing.
if I entered my tow car it would be in outlaw :shock
I know its only a fun event and we aren't racing for sheep stations :finger

[bluethunder]

Last year the trucks that came first and second in the mod class run 35,s and I think one had beadlocks . So maybe this does need looking at a bit more .

Yeah A few cars sliped through into wrong classes was will not be happinging again

Hey Charles sorry I might not have been clear I mean that any car that has 35s is in open class and anything over 35s is in outlaw can't remeber what your tow car if its on 38s it must feel abit different with the big GU behind it??

Anyway don't be too worried about classes people your car, we will make sure you are in the right class on the day just let us know on the form what you think you fall into

WE are more then happy to help with any question people may have

[evanstaniland]

sounds good will plan on heading out pending on work and more than happy to help out

[Jcas24]

Sounds good hope I'm not working that weekend

[4X4 shorty]

People have been asking about classes and we had a talk about it on the weekend and we have made a change to the classing to make it more even thanks to a few suggestions

These will be sent out with the entery forms to all the clubs as it is still club based event so if your not in a club find one!!


ALL CLASSES MUST HAVE REGO and 3rd PARTY PROPERTY regaurdless of class

Standard Class: Max of a 33"tyre and 2-3" of lift. No lockers only FACTORY rear LSD--------- NOTE NO BODY LIFT-------

Modified Class: Max of a 35" tyre and up to 4" of lift Only one Locker front or rear and factory LSD If car has dual lockers may elect to not use or disable one (pull Fuse ) to fall into this class if seen using both will get zero for that stage

Open Class: Max of a 37" tyre up 6" lift Dual diff lock and factory suspension mounts, aftermarket HD arms ok Helments required

Outlaw Class: No limits all suspension setups 'A' Frames, trianglated 4 Links etc coil conversion to leaf sprung trucks etc Helmets and window nets required.

[turbo gu]

Those classes look good
The tow car is now in modified

[DUDELUX]

Looking at those class regs, the Lux is in modified class.
Now to join a club.

[4X4 shorty]

was asked about lift most I assume would know but:

Lift includes suspension OR Body lift, so if you have two inch coils and two inch body lift say hello to modified class 2"+2" = 4" wow

AS I said before people dont worry about classes too much we will make sure you are in the right class on the day

[unmass]

ill drive there in modified but have to compete in outlaw. Dam big tyres and small lift.

Any chance on rules and regulations being sent to

Yeah but thats the way to go low car and big tyres doesn't feel so crap that way on side angles

[mog80]

No problems then the NSW comp at the same location at the end of August is for you then.

[Dubbo MQ Ute]

Hey guys,
Dubbo will definitely be there again and able to help marshaling I'd reckon.
Great weekend and great location.
See you all there.

[4X4 shorty]

Hey people the topics all gone abit quite but was talking to Cory ( On All 4s President ) and he said HE sent the entries out mid last week so people should be seeing them soon, Whoever was the contact or got them last year he said would get them again

any issues let me know or email : olchallange@hotmail.com

the only other news is like last year the outlaw trucks will run a night stage for everyone to watch and While that is going on in the same area a family/club fun night will be run by Christian
