So how many nominations do we have so far for this event?
There's been talk of a few teams from up this way being interested in racing! But we won't go naming names because it's still a while away and they might get scared when you start talking about the tracks you are setting for them MMM!

[Pauwolf]

Hey mate, I was pointing out anyone in particular, especially anyone who will paint their comp rig the night before the race just to make sure it's looking tip top! I know you guys will be down there no matter what!!


And not sure what I'll be doing, it seems whenever I say I'll be at a comP that never happens..... So we will just wait and see

[Pauwolf]

Yeah man, Lookin to do it again before the 8 day.

Get rolling on the middy

XI - RFC to hard for you?

Mate you only have to get past 43SS over the 8days. Why travel that far when you can come & play here. Lot cheaper then heading south with the comp truck.

Expect some good drive time.

Heading up to the Park tomorrow to have a bit of a look around. I have not seen the place up close (apart from the camp ground at Trekka) since the floods last year.

It might not be free but there are some great prizes up for grabs.

Every team will leave with at least $500 worth of gear as well as be in the chance for a trip to the RFC in Malaysia.

$4300 up for grabs on SS wins as well.

I am also offering extra discount on parts and gear for the comp/tow truck after you pay a 1/3 deposit.

Arrived back from the Park late last night.

John & myself worked out how the XI - RFC Base was going to be set up, (some campers must of been scratching there head just watching 2 guys walk around pointing & pacing about) I am very pleased.

Had some time to have a very quick look around the Park, but will have to wait till after Round 2 of the SSS, don't want to get my hopes up on an area and Pete gets in & does it first.

Also had a bit of time to watch some of SSS on Friday night ( along with some wine ) and some of Saturdays action.

The winner of the 6 Day and past winners of the ARB XWC Christian Trusz & Terry Kane have nominated for the XI - RFC to show you guys how it is done.

Cheers

Costing have changed.

If you have entered the XI - RFC you will automatically be entered in Round 3 of the ARB XWC (so free entry to this event, which normally has a $380 entry fee).

If you only want to run in the ARB XWC it will cost $380

Please note that the $100 per SS is only for the XI - RFC entrants not the ARB XWC entrants.

CBT Racing (Christian Trusz & Terry Kane) have nominated for XI later in the year. We know that there are many fantastic teams in SEQ, Northern NSW and Central QLD. It would be great to see you all at LCMP in September.

Great to see you on board .

Time will tell if you can repeat you SSS 6 Day win.

Have our first Victorian Team on board, more information on this latter.

Sponsors are looking good and look forward to a lot more before the XI - RFC.
Cheers

[truszy]

We still remember the first XI we watched at LCMP. It was an an awesome event!!! So much so, it motivated us to build a truck of our own. 6 months latter we were out on the tracks competing. Only 98 days to go !!

So we are counting the days now.

Yes the first one seems a life time ago, but it was fun.

It is a pity some people feel a bit scared about doing 43SS.

I am at the moment setting up for Round 2 of ARB XWC. I have a had a few calls to day from competitors expressing interest in coming along.

More on this later.

All so far have nominated for the full EXEDY XI RFC "8 Days of Off Road Magic".

At the moment I am looking at 12 - 15 Teams for the EXEDY XI RFC.

I am very pleased with interest shown.

Sponsors are also playing a big part in this at the moment.

Great to see another going to do battle at the XI - RFC.

55 sounds ok.

This would be a first 2 vehicle running under the same banner, it is great to see Hartec Electrical supporting 2 vehicles in this event.

And what I saw of your GQ today Dave looks real promising.

Cheers
David

[davegh2o]

Thanks Dave,

To say that I am looking forward to it would be an understatement!

But I do have a couple of months to pick shane's brain over the event, he won't mind, knowing he likes talking about it as much as actually participating. Lol.
