--- Quote from: davidlandy on January 12, 2009, 21:33:28 ---for consideration and a good idea I think...........
It should be that the santapod raceway site is entered via the A6 end of the forty foot byway - any vehicle in order to enter the racing must get in via that route , maybe unaided.
any views?

this idea would probably be great fun BUT muddy vehicles (and i think its pretty safe to say they gona be muddy if they coming in off 40ft) are not allowed on the track........... small amount of mud you might get away with however the chunks of clay likely to drop off after doing 40ft is a no no....... unless of course you would like to volunteer to wash everyones truck after they come in over 40ft before they go down the track!!!!! :grin: :grin:

dont wash my own , let alone any one elses!
yep 40ft is a tad dirty, but its supposed to be a proper 4x4 event, so thought it to be a way to ensure that true offroaders qualified.
depends on the time of year too.

What is it true offroaders are gonna qualify to do?????
Does that also mean then that if you dont actually go "off-roading" in your 4x4 at present that you are not allowed to come to the event???? or even if you are just curious about 4x4s and own a standard family car you cant come either?????
davidlandy:
No no , course not
I just meant simply to enter (the racing bit) a vehicle must be capable of driving a byway. my wording is wrong :oops:
just thinking that you may end up with other 4x4s ie subarus, Evos to the extreme and that wouldnt be in the spirit of the event.
It was just an idea thats all.

sorry didnt look at it like that i think we were talking at cross purposes and what you said just made me realise what it was you were saying originally. :oops: :oops: Thank you for making me realise my mistake.
It would be open to all marques of 4x4 except obviously the power cars i.e. like you say suburus, evos etc
Mudpluggers more than welcome.................. :D :D

My money's on BTM. But in his XKR, not his Landy.
Terranosaurus:
My other halfs subaru has seen more green lanes than an awful lot of "real" 4x4s - would that be allowed a run? It's guarded with silverstone knobblies on etc. Mind its only a sport not a turbo.
But seriously I quite fancy this - relly must get that front mounted intercooler done first though.
