    Van77, what a great story, which has inspired me to want to join in....Always wanted to see Tassie, so a great way to do that...I think Rodney certainly could handle the driving...me not so sure...but would be petrified of writing off the van...so much work in resto

    My brother in law does Rally racing so will speak to him about what you need to do to the van to qualify going in this sort of event..

    hope to see you posting more about your van etc. on the Forum

    We were in the tour stage, you would need too many mods. to get the van up to the standard needed for the timed events. The tour section does exactly the same stages without the major mods. Its also a bit cheaper. You do need to keep your own times as there is no classifications in this event. Talking to some of the others who have done both tour and competitive, they claim they were going just as fast and having more fun because it was less serious. If your not set up to be in the top 5 in each class, then this is the way to go, especially in a van.
