Sorry you had to come all the way from New Plymouth to get stuck in the mud Garnett, you should make the trip to a HCCC event in Levin at some stage, 99% of the time we have fine weather and no officials around to tell us to bugger off

Thanks for the Attempt guys, unfortunately the weather gods just didnt want to play fair, Let us know when the next one is on and We'll see you there

I figured out where all the dirt from the hole I dug on the start line went when I got back to my sisters place and gave the car a hosing. Filled my rear bumper with about 3kg of mud.

Nice going Sounds like you need to do an Autocross at Levin, and work on getting 6 - 7 kg in there.

Nice going Sounds like you need to do an Autocross at Levin, and work on getting 6 - 7 kg in there.

I usually have to add a zero to those numbers

[pc]

I reckon I pulled 50KG of mud out of the corolla from that really wet day... and every now and then when I'm feeling energetic I clean a little more and probably remove another 1KG... Real men do their weight savings with a water blaster

[pureadrenalin]

my mechanic is going to hate me tomorrow when he has to pull the gearbox to fit the new one. Everything is sill covered in mud under the car

[furpo]

We have organised to run this again on the 17th of December. I have redone the regs and hopefully they will be up on the webpage shortly.

Since no one has got back to us all competitors from the last even are entered into this one and the entry fee is carried over. All those who want to come along are more than welcome.
