Henry Webster:
Excellent Drum!

Can help with that easily.  You have described comp safari (speed events - like those that Redline does) to a tee.  Although they are most similar to single venue stage rallies that take place on rough tacks and off road you do not need a navigator because the course is well signed.  It is sometimes useful for someone else to operate the wipers and the horn though!

SIII would be fine to enter.  I have done many years in the navigators seat of a S1!  If you can afford to enter an 05 plate Range Rover then you had better come and do the British Championship!

Northern Off Road Club run this sort of event near you.  http://www.norc.co.uk

Or come and have a look at a round of the Hi-Q British Off Road Championship.  Next one is Shropshire.

Regards

Excellent, I've had a hankering to build a TDi Pickup\Off Roader for quite some time, and this would give me a reason to do it, rather than it just been a toy. (Have I convinced anyone??)

My latest plan (I know I have a different one every week), is to go to a few of the NORC events, have a chat to some of the competitors have a look around. If I like what I see, get a car ready for next season.

btw if you want to go fast cheaply a tuned tdi racer is the way to go,at the first comp of the year i spent roughly £40 on fuel,another member with a tdi bowler drove to the event,did it & went home on roughly £15 of fuel,proper white diesel  :shock:

Xtremeteam:
although its not reqired a passenger or ballast is handy to tell you to go faster & advise on different lines before you get there,also handy as you have some1 to blame when it goes pete tong
