Thanks for the shots Dave. I think I will sit down later and write up a thing about the new format. **)

Ok, first no more bunting to worry about. We now have to drive between witches hats. If you touch a hat you lose 200 points. If you complete the whole course you score is out of 1000. If you cannot make it past a point stage then you total is out of the amount of points you have gotten to there. ( this is what happened to me this morning I drove straight up to the 500 mark then there was a rock step that you tyres slipped out on and I nearly went over, so I pulled out there and my score was out of 500.) I think all the other demerits have been reduced. IE wheel spin, reversing, Timed rock stacking.

In these picks you can see me following my navi of the time Thor, aka TJ, this was the first stage, I hit two hats so my score was 600. I then drove the track in reverse and scored a 955 with no Navi :lol: .

Remember this was just a practise weekend, and therefore no safety gear was needed, and that is way I had a passenger (a guy interested in a Jeep **) )

Okay this felt alot worse in the rig than the photo shows. And there was abit of panic around so maybe the shot is early.

P.S. Congrats to Aaron, (Fat Chili's mate) for kicking some arse on the weekend and for somehow scoring 1000 on the last climb after hitting some cones. :?:

I was talking to Shane (big Red) last night and he said that he didn't think it was going over but it looked pretty cool. Apparently the shot is on the way up.
