Round 1 of the Australian Offroad Championship will be held in Hyden WA over the easter long weekend of April 10th -12th.
Being round 1 of the season brings new vehicles, new challenges and after the success of 2008 a bigger line up of interstate competitors! :D
Hyden is approximately 4 1/2hours drive from perth, home of WAVE rock and farming communities....perfect for racing $100k+ hi powered race buggies / trucks / cars through dust and dirt. Head east out of Hyden, turn left onto the road towards Wave Rock, follow the signs to Smithy's Place...too easy!
Theres a bar, canteen, showers and camping area and spectating points for some great action shots.
Its no Rally Australia and theres no Hilton Hotels....but if you like the smell of race fuel at 6am, the sounds of reving engines from 7am - 5pm, getting on the piss with the locals and racers and passing out that night in a tent just to wake up and do it again.......then this is for you!!
Support the locals of Hyden and have some fun seeing people with too much money (and some with out much at all) race their offroad racing machines for 2 days of flat stick, jump launching, high speed gravel straights fun. :twisted:
