We leave on the 13th gives us heaps of time to get over incase of any hassels with tow car and trailer.

Soooooooo.....

We have Powerful4x4 on the website now; does anyone have some inside info on who the remaining Wildcards maybe, if any

And I have seen mention of an entrant with 54" Michelans or something

Just getting the juices flowing: not many sleeps to go now

There are now no Wildcards for this year. Powerful 4x4 has simply replaced an earlier withdrawal.

There is a field of 39 starters.

We have one team with 54 Boggers. I'll need a step ladder to climb in.

Drive shaft is as clear as day to me.

Post by **alexcliffo** » Wed Mar 03, 2010 8:34 am

Definetely a tailshaft in there. Id be more worried about the lack of shocks, although theres not that much sprung weight in relation to overall weight

Post by **junior80** » Wed Mar 03, 2010 5:29 pm

there are videos on pirate of that thing climbing over a civic which is parked on a car trailer. it's got an intereating one link set up. but IMO rockwells were only cool before people started using mogs.

Hey Tony
How will this effect the starting order?

Post by **t price** » Thu Mar 04, 2010 12:09 pm

You will all keep the numbers that were drawn. We simply remove the wildcard numbers and call up the next truck.

What it means is that the Bandaged Bear is first up on the Dobbin night drive and Serious One is first up in Mudrats Revenge.

Clear as Mud

Hi All,

Outback Timbers Firewood will be available for purchase!

Outback will provide the bag & will let you fit as much as you can in the bag for $15

Also a reminder DO NOT BRING PALLETS TO USE AS FIREWOOD

pallets are created and dipped into some pretty fierce chemicals, which are made extremely toxic when burn't, these are not for firewood.

Regards,

Jo

I reckon you might want to clarify with spectators coming from QLD and NSW the gate time.

10 days to go people.
this event is lining up to be HUGE!

This is where it all goes quiet as competitors hurry about trying to get sorted finishing last minute mods etc.

the new mud run sounds pretty good value.

For once I'm already no last minute mods except I have to still paint the roll cage it's going a slight bronze tinge at the moment
but that's just due to being lazy
