Thats the problem, i do work away. Tomorrow I go to Thailand and Sunday night to Jakarta and arrive back in Brissy the day before the comp starts and straight to mackay. Hence the late nights. Whenever im home i have people chasing me to do work for them. I have fallen behind in bar work jobs. Prep has been big because we have made many changes for the good I hope.
Hopefully catch you next week for a cold beer. My mate and Navi lives in Mackay. If he still lived here he would be helping for sure. He would be getting the beers and rum.

Hey all, after a massive weekend of cleaning up after the cyclone, we have tracks cleared enough to run on. I would to give a huge thanks again to all the guy's that came up over the weekend to help us out.

Mosko, there are no showers on site, but there are toilets. We will probably use it again this year for a bit of fun, there may every be a prize for best RTI if I get time to organise something. The ramp will be for fun only, and will not go towards final points, and the ramp is not a proper travel ramp either.

Hey all, tracks are looking good after all the hard work over the last 3 solid days just cleaning up after the cyclone. The ballot for the run order has been done. My wife did it so I had no hand in it and couldn't be seen as playing favours. It is as follows;
Team # Team Name
1. M & P Services
2. Blue Vien
3. Ruffnut
4. Fullbore
5. Team Red Truck
6. Tooth Fairy
7. Team Middy-Strenght
8. Tigger
9. The Bit
10. Todds Mods
11. TNT
12. Benny & Kimmy
13. Pissed & Broke
14. RAG Racing
15. Starrett Racing
16. Simon Says
17. Team Blu Dog
18. Wild Racing
19. Junk Yard Dogs
20. Farcups
21. Hi Dee Hoe Racing
22. Jeepers Creepers
23. Victorians
24. Team Zook
25. Mosko's Circus
26. Team Ken Oath
27. HJ Racing
28. Team Sickies
29. EFS Qld
30. Dodgy Bros Racing
31. One Time

The field will be split into two groups, so those in the middle of this list will be at the front of the line for the first stages.

There is also some teams looking for a third still, so if you want to run in the team challenge as well, call me and I will put you in contact with the other team members.

Remember, read the rules, make sure you have all off your required gear, and then some. Those with low mount winches, and even high mounts for that matter, make sure your snatch blocks are in good order and you know how to use them.

Some of the tracks are more challenging now then when we first walked them, so it should be lots of fun.

If you have any questions, feel free to call me on 0414 455 542 and I will return your call ASAP.

See you all in a few days.

Only 4 sleeps to go.

1800ZT, hey mate, unless the cyclone totally messed up the road, youll be fine, ive seen a brand new 2wd buzz box another 15 minutes up the road in the state forrest,
and its only a 5 min drive on the dirt road to get to where spectator parking will be,
And to get there you just head towards proserpine and i dare say bear will have signs up on the side of the road where you turn left onto the dirt road, im pretty sure it takes about 40 mins from the outskirts of mackay, hope that helps and isnt confusing
