Great work by the organisers and everyone that made it happen.
Amazing to hear that Cheezy got a drive as well.
You guys have gone above and beyond to promote WErock and get things off the ground.
I have a suggestion for interstate teams to be able to compete.
It would be very cool if you guys had a buggy interstate guys could hire and have a go at the event in.
The same way Cheezy and Guts flew up there and got to drive.
Shane and I would be keen to do this as well.
And I am sure there are plenty of other teams out there that would be interested.
It adds a wildcard entrant to the comp and means you get to see an invitational team every time it is held.
Perhaps there could be one wildcard team at each event from a different state to the one the event is being held in.
Not sure how the finances would work, but it could work on the basis that if you break the buggy you pay for the repairs.
The event sponsors might be able to help the visiting team pay for airfares.
I am sure people always have a spare bed, and transport to the event is not hard.
Or worst case scenario the visiting team has to pay all costs. But that would still work.
Not sure if it is a realistic idea, but after hearing Cheezy raving about it for hours on end it sounds like it would be an awesome concept until things really get off the ground.
And when Cheezy gets his Victorian events off the ground the same could apply.
Just a thought as I personally would love to build and drive a buggy for comps but there is just no where to drive it and no comps down in Vic.
Maybe we can talk about this further at TT.
Three weeks.....scary!!
cheers
