ha better than the reply I was expecting....

"should of came to the club night and you would know"

True of course.

Thought Hirvo and Loeb would be doing it as a recce for when the WRC comes back to the north east next year.

well, i did make the request for more info for the website, but was told .... "everyone knows what a treasure hunt is".

 I cant help Gav, as i had no idea what one is either. Apparently driving round getting clues.......

if im right what he is doing is a scatter where yes you do go hunting for clues to end up at a certain place but you also have to do it in the correct number of miles/or  closest to it but they dont tell you the mileage (dave similar to the nighttime offroad events we have done)

When i was growing up... we were lucky if we had a car. In fact, didnt until i was 15 when my step Dad got one.  Not everyone has money. some people grow up poor.  Even put cardboard in my shoes to cover the holes...   now... where in my upbringing would i take part in a motor club treasure hunt ?  (esp considering no one in my family had the slightest interest in motorsport)

I grasp the TH concept Sec just not how a car can be absorbed into the "game" not like you can drive one under the bed or the cupboard under the stairs is it?

Thank you Les and Judy. Mike and I had a good run and enjoyed making the most of an early start and daylight!

The winners organise the next one I believe.

Yeahhh... no worries..

  am sorting out Keilder Forest, Grizedale and Dalby.  Uprated suspension, roll cage and lamp pods would be an advantage........




   as i always say...  "Think Big"
