novice winch event?
« on: March 06, 2012, 20:36:42 »
hello all, its been a while!my question today is this:
is there any 'easy' or 'novice' winch challenge type events, either team or individual veichle,  suitable for entering in a 90 and 110, both lightly modifyed (front winch, 2 inch lifts, some underbody protection, snorkels, cb, waffle boards, recovery kit)?
both trucks and drivers have done quite a lot of offroading.
 just remembered there was an artical about something like this in one of the comics a couple of years ago, ill see if i can find it.

cheers in advance for any ideas/suggestions.

You could start by doing some punch hunts.

This sounds more suitable to your vehicles.

hi there

not sure were you are from but we do our own entry level punch events in northants, on northants4x4.com

we run headstart systems so that standard motors get a chance to compete fairly against the tricked up trucks.
