RTV's etc...

smo:
Can someone explain about RTV's and how they work, how extreme they are, what sort of vehicle prep is usual.

Basically i'm looking for a little more than just green laning and the odd play day to entertain my lust for 4x4ness....will RTV's do this (without mashing my nice 90?)

Contact your local club, if you have one, go along to an RTV Trial and see if you fancy it.
Then, ask some one in the club for guidance.

Although RTV's are for road taxed vehicles, the person setting out the course has to draw a fine line between making the course too easy for the
veteren driver and too hard for the novice.

As to damage, that depends on what is accepted by the competitors.
Some clubs have nice wide gates over straight forward terrain,
others don't. Some have a no damage policy, others are prepared to accept various levels of damage.

Try to find out if local clubs run TYRO trials, which are supposed to be
strictly non damaging. These are for novices and 'shiney cars',
but can be an ideal intro to the world of trialling.

Remember, no two clubs or trials will be the same.
Just get out there and try :wink:
Hope this helps :wink:

It would also help if you said where you are? But try looking at the All Wheel Drive Club web site.

mark.yellow.series.3:
most clubs are governed by the 'association of rover owners clubs' (the ARC). and there rules on what constitutes an RTV standard or an RTV modified.
