Well I was just speaking to someone from the club about it and it will be held around the Marysville area (he said it's no secret now anyway) the actual tracks I don't know.
Tyhe rumour is the modified section will be harder than last year thats all I know.

do you know how closely they will go over the trucks ? ie roadworthy test or a quick look over to check everything is right like seat belts lights etc ?
Reason i am asking is this is my first event wondering what to expect

Last year they just checked general road worthy items, lights, belts, battery secure, ect,ect.

Not sure if TYRED (a.k.a. UTERIS) is accepted but they banked the cheque - and it cleared - how'd they do that? Will be testing new control arms, panard rods, etc (courtesy Cheezy and Hayden) in preparation for OBC. Have come 2nd and 3rd in last 2 years in a rangie. Had to flick the rangie if I am to take it out.

There's been a bit up there I'm told but who knows how the tracks will be on saturday. There are some steep arsed tracks up around Big River so if their wet I think there will be a lot of winching going on.........................
