najw Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Just got back from recceing the site for the next event and I have to say I think you'll be quite pleasantly surprised with the punches this year, not all perhaps what you might be expecting. However, as has already been said this is a steep site and given that most mishaps don't even happen on punches, your winch ropes will be being scrutineered and no-one with a knotted rope will be allowed to start. If you went last year you will be aware the camping and parking conditions were less than ideal. The landowner has spent a lot of time and effort clearing up the quarry parking area and there is now ample room. If the weather stays fine and dry we will be using one of the fields instead. There will be a free Hogroast for all on Saturday night hosted by event sponsor Gwyn Lewis 4x4 LINK Finally please note that the official start time of this event is 9:30am as notified in the imminent Supplementary Regulations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boothy Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I think I've finally cracked my steering problem, just keep my fingers crossed it's right, I suppose if there's one site where you may like steering this is it. I'd got a very tight pair of CV's that I could hardly move when I took em' out. Just got to keep the lad free from alcohol Sat night and we are away, wipers still not working though and I bad weather fore casted, we'll see, or not perhaps. See you all Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
