Darryn, besides game drives, are there any decent 4x4 trails at Shamwari? Perhaps you could put together an out of season weekend package and see who's interested?

All the roads are graded unfortunatly, to keep the poms from bouncing around to much! The cruisers drive around in 2x4 unless it rains..

Perhaps we can get an idea of who might be interested and find a central venue to those that are. Then we could plan from there what the events schedule would be, if close enough to you, a game drive could be included.

Last year they did not have a class for the pipe cars or buggy section, i tried to phone but could not get through to anyone. It was pointless to drive all the way up and then cannot partake .As one has noticed that there is only one pipe car taking part in WCCC at the moment Kirkwood challenge is not a MSA affiliated event . Who knows Clint, Craig, Tommy, Gary, Hilton etc and myself might attend. The last count we did there is about 7-10 vehicles in the Cape that stands dormant.
