Yes that is correct same as last year. Hopefully we have chosen a better time of the year to run this event. It was a little cold last time And the rain didnt help either.

[45punkbus]

last year was not cold at all, well not that i could actually feel, coz my body was numb, and we forgot to pack food, and packed very little clothes as well, but what an event it was

We Stayed at the Rockley Hotel and Slept in Beds with Electric Blankets And yes we booked the place out again this year

[75 cruiser]

Sorry to say but it always rains for easter!As for cold it will be jumpers and long pants because its not very warm this morning!So all you cockroaches rug up because it will be cold!Ruff remind wes to pack more warm clothes this time!

[Troll00]

Count us in NOW , does anyone have the GPS Co-ordinates for the property or what is the fastest way there from Canberra

[N*A*M]

i would advise against taking in 2wd vehicles.

[not not]

If its pelting down rain then 2wd access is a little difficult but if good weather then all is good!
Myself and steve will be there to compete in this one Tony.
Also for your judges this yeay it might be an idea to have a releif judge as last year it was a little difficult to get away to use the toilet and leave one judge at the coarse. But some good improvements for the judges this year. So anyone thinking of getting in to it take my advise and do it. I did for 3 rounds last year and it was fantastic.
Talk about a birds eye veiw of the action and no orange vests in front of you cause youll be wearing it.
Cheers Jamie H

A releif judge would not be fair on the competitors. I would rather stop the course for a short period of time so that the same judges judge every vehicle. A course can not run with only a single judge.

Just do it in your pants like Not Not did at Milbrodale

[RUFF]

The Judges Cup this year will be run durring the main event. Basicaly the Moon Buggy will be moved from stage to stage thoughout the day and at the first chance the judges of that course will compete while myself and Sam will judge.

All W.E.Rock rules and scoring will be used for the Judges Cup and you will need to bring your Helmet And Gloves to compete. Pm me if you can not bring your own gear. I may be able to sort something out.

[mud4b]

tony just a q.

being new to this is the course set up different for the pro mod class or are we to drive the same course as the higher class..

just working out if i should start competing here or keep learning to drive out of compitition for a while longer.

The Courses are set exactly the same. There are bonus lines on most courses so basicaly the Unlimited vehicles are likely to take the bonus lines and a lot of the Pro mods will by pass the bonus lines.

Generaly the Pro-mod rigs will still Complete the courses but will drive them with more penalties than some of the Unlimited vehicles.

thanks tony.
if i can find a navi i might see how i go...

[not not]

Ahhh no micka not in my pants but myself and UHZ40 took every oppertunity to take a leek when we were waiting for the next vehicle to arrive at the stage.
But at no time was one person scoring by themselfs.
Tony i do see your point with consistency to every stage as far as judging goes But I was only suggesting a alternative as last year we didnot have anything in place for this slight problem and im shore a female wouldnt like to run in to the bush for a quick leek. And it would be good to have a consistant scoring as far as same judges at most rounds. So we need them to come back. Maybe a lunch break for each stage perhaps.
Cheers Jamie H

We are now running Full W.E.Rock rules. The Above reply was just a basic outline of the classes. This is why i also added the link to the full rules and specs.

[thepatroldude]
