Hi,
As above the mechanic we were taking with us to the Transylvania Adventure Trophy cannot commit now
We are looking for somebody that can service the vehicle and carry out any repairs where needed in the evening after each day's competing, possibly share some of the driving there and back , just a support guy that we can depend on if we have issues.
All expenses will be covered and im sure there are people out there that may want to experience the challenge itself if they are looking to do it themsleves the year after or just for the scenery , besides we are going to have a good laugh if nothing else
We are hoping to have the Defender Trayback pretty reliable before we venture there, well drivetrain wise anyway so maintenance will be the key.
The commitment would have to be from the 6th of July to the 20th which takes into account all travelling.
If anybody is willing to help, it would be much appreciated as the dates are closing in and we cannot go without a support crew.
Thanks Philon & Alex

Any more details?
Thanks

I've decided to go along the same line as Alex.
So here is the idea behind my new winch challenge truck
Now now Any pictures about?
-
Thanks Nick
Was a good shakedown for the trusty beast and we both enjoyed how the punches were laid out, made it challenging with one way in punches, not just the usual drive up to a random tree to find a punch.
Thanks to those who gave me the odd push on saturday whilst i became familiar with the limits of the truck and Dan thanks for getting me in the water, wouldnt have done it without your persistance ;)Bit deeper than we thought though aye
Well done to the landy behind us... to be fair i didnt realise how close you were to us lol, how did you manage not to break them axles on the rocks
Thanks
Alex

Hi All, Have a great weekend, gutted I cant be there as moving house . Have fun and a few beers for me!
Yeah see you there BOW the machine is looking a bit different
-
if you had two life size ones made of rubber that would be better......
Is there an entry list then? Even if it is a bit short
-
Alex mate, the reason some of us are not there is because we are going to the Croatia challenge! Plus you will see the "Ultimate Challenge" is only Santa's with a different name....... Now if it was "the" ultimate challenge then that would be worth entering! but it's not!!! it will be the same site's with the punch's in the same place's!!!!
So why do i want to enter that? been there done that! now go out and "Win it" and move on mate!
good point... still a good laugh though.
-
Maybe the price is a bit steep, and there are other challenges to enter, some only £40 per day, or less!!! couple this to the traveling between sites, & accomodation, and it soom ads up to a lot. Could be wrong/ could be right??
Yeah you could be right, on the other hand i don't think it is excessive, £40 challenge events may be availiable on a turn up for one day on one site and do your own thing basis.
Using various sites, including Yarwell which isn't cheap, that and the food provided at the end of the two days competing and a good relaxed atmosphere i don't feel that the price of £145 is putting people off.
Looks like we will be entering only one car now though
Cheers
Alex

Ill being seeing you there. Are you using your buggy
Dom

Should be a good laugh.
See you there.
Alex

Just a heads up, the people that want to enter but don't have there truck road legal can still compete, having spoke with vince today it's easier for people to trailer the trucks
so get your entry's in
Alex

one car is still in pieces...shortened D110. Second car is D90.
Hi,
We still desperately need a team mate for this, we are team 25a on the extreme entry list, there must be someone out there who fancies doing one of the best european events around?
Thanks
Philon and Alex
-

Alex

your right alex, as the road sections between the 2 sites are not part of the comp you can enter, if you can persued him to monkey for you i remember his words at santa's
all the best,
Bow..
Yep i took a BARS test which involved theory and driving a subaru round a stage, i also took a championship test which determined whether we were fit to rally basically, as they dont want any 14-16 year old out on the stages.
Thanks for clearing that up BOW, i'll see if i can convince him
-
I distinctly remeber you saying you don't need a full uk drivers licence to compete on saturday is this correct?
Im 16 and hold a national B rally licence which proves i can drive
Cheers
Alex

Any more interest in this,
one day event, just for fun, still have spaces for the expert/open class on the sunday, this is a new event, pm me or contact protrax for more details or entry forms.
all the best,
BOW..
Hi,
We spoke at Santa's and was interested in doing both days.
Do you still have spaces in the novice class on the Saturday? and the open class on Sunday?
Thanks
Alex

Sorry for the poor post, done by my phone in a less than comfy defender.
We thought with the heavy rain it was going to be bad, we have done it in flood season and it was very deep! This time round, surprised to find little more than the usual puddles. Maybe the rain hadnt caught up with this part of the river.
If it gets bad again would be up for going in a convoy.
