Rops WTC Round 2: Mackay this weekend!!

Post by Mosko111 »

Well entries are now open for Round 2 of the ROPS Winch Truck Challenge event!!!

After work commitments caused the re-shecdule of the event the new dates have been set as- 11th & 12th of August with scrutineering being on the Fri afternoon/ night as per usuall.
I dare say we will see another great field of competitors put their hand up to battle it out for those 3 podium places!! :armsup: Ecspecially with the results of Round 1 being so close!!! (Theres was only around 100 points difference between the top 6 teams after the two days of absolutley awesome racing!!

Round 2 will be held on another completely new property that has never been raced on before, making it an even playing field from the get go with no home town advantages!
The property is situated 40 km north of Mackay, With more info to follow on the property after another reconaisance is done in the coming weeks, also the organisers will be getting some photo's to show us all what we are in for!

There is also going to be some new rules added to ROPS Winch Truck Challenge rules book after a few issues popped up at Round 1, These new rules are:

Rules - Compulsary Equipment

3K - Hand held UHF . This UHF is to on Channel nine at all times and carried with you when away from comp vehicle.

13F - When a breakage has occured you will notify Control on (Channel 9) immediately. It will be the competitors responsibility to contact the control every 20 minute ther after until completion of repair . Failure to contact control at desinated times will incur 20 point penalty for the first breach and 40 point penalty for each breach there after.

7C - No Glass (eg; alcohol in glass, glass cups etc) to be brought into WTC event (comp site or Camping Ground)
Failure to comply, will result in 100point penalty for first offence and Disqualification from event for the second offence.

7D - People camping with teams and have glass will be ask to leave immediately

7E - No dogs allowed.

Unfortunately guys a lot glass has is creeping into the camp sites, So please do the right thing as we will be enforcing the rules, and the last thing we want to see is a child or adult recieve injuries from broken glass, or the owners have issues with it being left behind!

This Round will need at least 15 cars to run.
Cut off date for entry is 10/7/2012 after this point there will be no refunds as it cost money to out the event on. If we dont reach 15 cars we will refund the entry to those competitors at that date. We need that month so we can cancel advertising etc.

Any questions please call Brent Taylor or Brad Dukes!

Cheers Mosko.

The round 2 location has now been confirmed!! :armsup:
The event will be held on the new property 40km North of Mackay. Brent (Bear80) will be heading up there this weekend (Sunday & Monday) to start clearing and planning the special stages.
If you are able to lend and hand get in contact with Brent and he will give you the directions on how to get there!

Also as i have already mentioned, nomintations are now open and will close on the 6th of July, if you would like to compete the nomination forms can be found on the website: http://www.wtc4x4.com.au/

This will be another great round, with the organisers changing things up a bit at round 1 this year and adding longer stages, more longer speed runs (was 15km's long!! :cool: ) a huge 2 hour gps run, and the winch stages involving a bit more seat time. :D
As they take on board feedback from past and present competitors this series is going to go from strength to strength! And with a completely new property being the venue for round 2 there will be no home ground advantage, it will come down to the best team over all of the stages over the two days of action packed racing!! So if you think you've got what it takes get those forms filled out and come on out and have some fun racing!!

The organisers: Brad and Brent have signed up to have a full DVD production done on Round 2 in mackay!! :armsup:

John McCredie of OHM Productions has come aboard to do the DVD!! The Dvd will be 60 min to 90 min long and will take approx 4 months to be produced and ready for sale. The organsiers will be sending out an information form for you to complete before the comp so they know who is in which vehicle and so this information can be used in the DVD. This DVD is the real thing guy's so please try and looklook good for the camera and give your comp rigs (and possibly drivers) a decent bath and pretty up before the event. :D

An extra bit of exciting news for the Mackay Comp is they also have a 5 times Australian Rally Champion, Ross Dunkerton coming along to do some special guest commentry on the DVD! How cool is that! This guy is a legend in the ARC. Ross will also have his book on his Rally experiences for sale at the event, so be sure to bring out a few spare $ to grab yourself a copy!!.
