[the gun]

I'll bide my time................

Everyone "should" feel safe, the 40 has a working handbrake, and the auto reaches park

I'll still park on the side slope though

Hey 1/2 price. I sorted K&A 4wd wreckers as a sponsor again, Ken has ordered in a shit load of diff centers and hand brakes just for u.

Yew free shit just make my order a 4.6 pootrol pair

Haha jeez, even copping heckles from fellow organisers your TT entry just went up

HaHa how about a hug?

All competitors names will be at the front gate, each driver/navi team will be entitled to get 6 people in for the weekend including yourselves.

My backyard looks like something big is about to happen.

Im not that mean in the excavator.

[evanstaniland]

Hey are fires allowed or not?

Hey Evan
I didnt think u were coming. Whats happening with the bundy?

No fires this year, we r in total fire ban and its really dry out here. So anyone even thinking of sparking up a fire will be in trouble. Gas cooking only

Yea mate I'm coming, I'll be trying to navi as one of our teams navis couldn't make it.

The busy was going to be prepped ready for king of the rim but new shocks wouldnt fit! The upper link mount was hitting the alternator with 4" of up still to go!
It's going back together slowly, got some other things on the burner

[thunder]

Just to clarify, that means each competing car is 6 people and the team (2 cars) it's 12 total?
Cheers

That would b correct 6 per car, 12 per team but the 6 people per car must arrive at the gate at the same time. No so and so will b here in half an hour.

[brad 93hilux]

My navi will be coming 3-4 hours after me so does that mean he'll have to pay?

my navi will also be arriving at different times to me

[hizook]

Hi my navi will also be arriving at a different time to me

[Pigroota]

Scrutineering will open at 2pm tomorrow ( Friday ) , i suggest competitors bring their vehicles to the scrutineering area for checking soon after they arrive , to allow time for any changes that you may have to make to your vehicles to comply

We will be taking a good look at braking systems including a handbrake that works ( we dont want to see anymore roll away cars 1/2 price )

recovery points will be given a good look too , no dodgey welds , or mild steel bolts , i know a few have spoken to Tony about using hooks - will will be checking to make sure your vehicle can be totally lifted using these points ( car in any position - upside down etc ) if your vehicle is deemed that it cant be lifted using these hooks ( as you have promised Tony ) it will be go away & fix it ....

[the gun]

Hi my navi will also be arriving at a different time to me

for those team members that wont b arriving at the same time. The first team member (navi or driver) that arrives will nominate how many of the 6 entries they will b using. When the second member arrives, if over the 6 quoter, will have to pay for extra spectators.
Cheers
c u all soon.

Awesome weekend!
Big arms up to the cannoblas club for a great event. tracks were tough but good.
So big question who won?

[Bentzook]

I dont know how, but Phil and I won !!!

[general lee]

phil & marcus did

[Bentzook]

Teamwork, and instructions to drive over me if I lay over

[phils.zook.on33's]

Due to the unexpected results and my very poor public speeking skills, our thank you speech was pretty ordinary so ill try writing something more deserving here.

Thanks very much to the canobolis club for there top effort with putting together another great event for 2012 ( especially with the difficulties of new scoring and marshalling rules) each year just seems to be getting bigger and better. Also for ordering some decent weather so we could all enjoy the event.

Thanks to all the other competitors, its good to see there is still lots of comradory between competing teams helping those who broke get back to the tracks however possible.

Thanks to our spotters Ethan and Roland they did a great job all weekend and lastly to suzuki 4x4 club of NSW and OL MATE 4x4 for there support.

[red rattler]

Another great weekend put on by the Canobolas 4wd club. Tracks were awsome ! Weather was great !! And the atmosphere amongst competitors and officials was really good. Had a fun weekend guiding the rattler through the stages. Cant wait till next years Toperi Challenge , best event on the calander.

[BUSTED100]

Top job to the Cannobalas Club and all involved, another top event

(even to that evil so and so who towed me out of track 2 with his pootrol that really hurt)
