Invites will be sent out very soon to the chosen ones and then after all the stuff is sorted there will probably be a few spots for some lucky punters. Not many spots so you need to be very lucky.

Howdy guys, I'm looking after the Ateco Warn Winch Challenge web site www.awwc.org.au.

We are updating the site, as more details become available, so hopefully it will answer most of your general questions.

We are also trying to get pictures of previous Ateco events, if you have any, could you send them in, any images you have would be most appreciated.

I've been told due to insurance there will be no spectators allowed can anyone confirm this :?:

Post by **TamsTJ** » Mon Jun 14, 2004 4:28 pm

As of Thursday, Spectators are allowed on the Sunday. I have not heard any one mention any insurance issues. Mooney told me that Sunday was the only day open to spectators.

So, come down on Sunday.

I will be there as a Marshall. So I will be able to spectate all weekend.

is this the one being held out at willow grove?also will it be 4x4ing to get there to spectate?

Post by **Drafty** » Fri Jun 18, 2004 6:30 pm

We will be there competing, this will be the first time the truck has been used in a winch challenge event so it should be interesting to see how it and we perform.

Anyone else from the site competing?

Hobzee here (signed in as Rudi - sneaky, huh!)

Talk is harnesses, helmets and 6pt roll cage are a must.

All who did Outback are conditioned to harnesses and helmets and OK with this. Some others don't like it.

6pt roll cage might make it tuff for some. I might pass. All dressed up and no where to go...
