If anyone needs a driver for this let me know!

If not il set a team up on my own probably.

Is the rule about minimum of six per team flexible?

We talked last year about doing it with a team of two.

If we enter a team of six and four dont turn up/are made up (like Mary) will we get rumbled?

I think you will now stu. Of course nothing in the rules says that all the team have to be there at once. Are you a master of disguise? :D

Good question though!

super__dan 08-11-2011 09:58 PM

Just checking, you know this is the weekend of the BRCA winter champs? Suspect the clash might effect numbers at both events.

Hi Col, out of interest who are they?

Col 18-11-2011 04:03 PM

No idea Damo, that was the reply I got from Derek Bradders when I expressed my teams intent to enter.
I am nothing to do with either the running or planning of this one, so am a little out of the loop.

Northy 07-02-2012 11:30 AM

Surprised there hasn't been more banter about this to be honest..... :(

Who's racing?

This has to be one of the hardest but most rewarding races I've ever done :)
