zardos Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I'm looking for a co-driver again as my previous co-driver is still not up for it after his illness. I'm looking to do some or all the HOWLIN' WOLF CHALLENGE (if there is any spaces left), if not may be some other events this year. I've got a reasonable challenge spec 90 which I competed in last years AWDC clubman series. PM me or post a reply here if your interested or have any questions.

Andrew Hi Andrew, I would be very interested in co-driving for you. I have some experience of co-driving and being in the driving seat as well, and have been doing the sport for around 5 years, but as yet I have not competed in an offical challenge. I am co-driving this Sunday at a local winch challenge for a friend. I am very willing to learn any extra pointers, and have picked up quite alot from the challenges that we go to watch. Also, don't know whether it is important to be physically fit but I do motocross as well as the 4x4 so I am capable of running up a hill with a ground anchor on my shoulder! Many Thanks Rhys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still looking Thanks Adrian, I would class myself as adequate One thing that I should state that is I don't have a driving licence as I am only 16. A big 16 year old, 5ft 11" and 13st, I just hope that this does not affect what I can do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zardos Posted January 12, 2008 Author Share Posted January 12, 2008 Thanks for all the offers. I'm just checking the regulations for those 16 year olds that responded. I'll be in contact with you all soon. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young bobtail Rhys Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Thanks for all the offers.I'm just checking the regulations for those 16 year olds that responded. I'll be in contact with you all soon. Thanks Competed in the challenge today, and found that it had been set out for you lot with 35" simex, gigglepin 8274's and arb's front and rear! I was in a chipped 110 td5 with 265/75r16 bf goodrich muds, and for the first 3 sections he had forgot to put diiflock in It was a very hilly, and complex course with lots of narrow tight turns, so predictable the 110 struggled, constantly sitting on its chassis. This made me work very hard running around with the waffles and ground anchor Unbelievably, we were doing really well, obviously behind the challenge trucks but infront of many others And we had the longest wheelbase there, doh! The engine more than makes up for it though It was all great fun until on the water section the winch decided to pack up. We don't know what was wrong with it but it was clicking so I think that the solenoids had got wet, but they were all bright? After this we had to retire. But really up for any other challenge where anyone requires a co-driver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow White Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I thought winch monkies were suppose to be light, agile, fast with lots of stamina? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
