4WD World Record Attempt at Lancelin - Oct 15

[wes]

The purpose of this event is to smash the Guinness World Record for Largest convoy of off-road vehicles and I thought it would be great to get a group of Jeeps going to this historic event.
Current world record was set in Qatar in the Middle East and stands at 154.
The event at Lancelin is expected to smash that figure, however vehicle registrations will be capped at 500.

Unfortunately the opportunity to register early has already closed.
Early registrations will be invited to complete their entries next Friday (12 Aug) and public registrations will be accepted from the day after (Sat 13 Aug).

Registrations will be $25 per vehicle - the first 250 will get a $10 discount.

I'd imagine getting in/out of Lancelin would be similar to any long weekend (maybe a bit busier) but if you have any concerns about time, this is probably not the event for you.

Be great to see some of you there on Saturday 15th October

We've done more than that at previous Jambos!

Yep, that's what I thought too - I've also been in convoys in Perth that would give it a crack
Also seen events in the USA like 'Jeep Beach' and the 'Bantam Jeep Festival' which literally have thousands turn up, which I have mentioned to the organisers.

But as they pointed out to me - it's all in the definition of an 'off-road 4wd convoy' which is quite strict when a record attempt is made.
All vehicles have to be 4wd, registered and ALL MOVING AT THE SAME TIME over an entirely OFF-ROAD course of 3.2kms (2 miles) ie once ALL vehicles have started moving, every vehicle has to cover 3.2 kms without stopping and keep going till the last vehicle has travelled 3.2kms

This could be tricky - even in small convoys there can be quite a delay between the first vehicle moving off and the last vehicle moving.

There are other requirements too - like distance between cars and probably a few other things I haven't been told yet

I'd rather pay money not to be in a traffic jam

I realise its not for everyone but it's something different and I'm looking forward to it.
There are so many nice Jeeps in and around Perth and when it's all over it would be nice to say we had a fair percentage represented at the event.

Stockton would be a good place to pull this off

Me too Wes, hopefully the weather will be kind and I can take the CJ for a run.
