All
Amazingly the second Scotia Challenge is in doubt, with not enough entries. See below.
If anyone has taken part in a Potarch event and enjoyed it they should seriously consider taking part in a Scotia. If you don't want to compete for some reason feel free to email either me or the organisers and let them know the reason why...is it venue, cost, feel they have a lack of experience etc.....
Any how I would urge you all to take part and have a great laugh at the same time.

Quote "With 4 days to the entry deadline we have only 5 entries with 3 of them yet to pay. We cannot run the event with less than 15 vehicles so if we don't get the numbers we will be forced to cancel.
The 1st event was immensely successful with 20 competitors and with the easy/intermediate sections being increased in number and placed in open ground the level is being aimed even MORE firmly at the Novice. There are prizes totalling £350 on offer (you get ****** all at TFC!) and the chance to watch and learn from a wide variety of sources.
Pass the word around - 15 entries or no one gets to play. This is the ONLY true novice challenge event anywhere that I'm aware of and is certainly the only one in Scotland, priced as low as we dare (nothing left over for Charity as with TFC) it would be a real shame for it to fail at the second hurdle.

Is a cage on the vehicle a requirement ?
Would be a "softtop SJ" possibly.
Just noticed - THIS WEEKEND (thought I had a couple of weeks)- no danger in finishing that zook, still making winch bracket and LR is shagged (still).

Apparently they were the sole cause of his motor falling over......
It's all in the 'Clog folklore.
