HOWEVER!!!!!!!!!! Now painted

travelling towards Warwick over Cunninghams gap ... zero trip meter at the top of cunninghams gap where the truck parking area is.
travel 21.7 kms and turn right at the driver reviver stop.
travel 9.8 kms along Goomburra road and turn sharp right.
travel 15.5 kms towards Goomburra Forest Park and watch for the sign for Janowen Hills 4x4 Park and the Tough Tracks Challenge.

reminder, you can now apply for your ctp extensions

just wanted to double check that if your vehicle was fully comprehensively insured whether you require the CTP extension?

Also on one of the other forums (patrol/tough tracks cant remember which) someone said that zip ties wouldn't be acceptable for holding window nets in place. Mine is fitted with zip ties on two sides (top and b-pillar) with a spring keeping it tensioned at the front, will this suffice? it is mounted independant of the door and only requires the spring to be undone to access the cabin via the window.

Also is a window net required for the cab if the navi isn't going to be in the vehicle whilst competing.

Thanks in advance.

A mate wants to come and watch the comp and bring his caravan. Can anyone confirm if it would be possible to get a van into the main campsite. I have left a message with the park, but as yet dont have a reply.

Cheers
