You will be as popular as a fart in a elevator if some of those very expensive 450's go though that mud hole Mick .... air box lid . I think that was the first thing I tossed

Nice comments all.
The water crossing is going to be about half a foot deep. No mud boggin here, sorry fellas. It is placed just before the pit straight to keep the dust down. The track is about 18km long, half of which is tight windy stuff, the other half is fast, but not all in a row, all broken up to keep you thinking.
A couple of tips:
1) fit some hand guards, she is pretty tight in some spots.
2) Taller tyres are better in the soft sandy sections.
3) bring spare tyres and puncture repair kits, it is an enduro afterall.
I took the RZR out to bed the track in and got a puncture in every tyre, and Maxxis Bighorns are a pretty good tyre. It could be that the RZR is quite heavy with 2 people in it, even though I am a dainty little thing. None of the quads got punctures, but they may have been lucky.
4) Bring a hydration pack to wear (camelback type thing). It is going to be hot thirsty work.
5) Get your entries in ASAP.

No, I'm pretty sure that wasn't the first thing you tossed!
Sorry mate, couldn't resist. You left yourself way open for that one.

Did some quick adding, 300km at 18km per lap = 16 laps per quad/team, so if theres 50 quads per lap its 360m between quads and the track will get passed over 800 times, not taking into account breakdowns and the sighting lap or the juniors. That sands gunna be deep!!!!!

The road into the property has all been repaired.
I still would not recommend very low cars, but we got in just fine in a standard crewman which is pretty low.
Here is a link to the directions to the track from Pinnaroo:
http://www.whereis.com/?id=6C8C1932FD7AD3&intref=emailmap
All is running to plan, but remember, late fee of $50 applies for entries after 17th of this month. 11 days to go......

Yep, easy Frogster!
I think even a Tarago would make it in.
Not sure about a Sprinter van though, but Luke is used to me dragging him out when he get's bogged. It will be good practice for Finke!
