Treasure Hunt 16th Sept

Gav Taylor · Treasure Hunt 16th Sept

As title really just saw it on the website, whats it all about please?

club sec

No good to you Gav, there are no world rally cars doing it.

Gav Taylor

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.......
hopefully someone will give more info

steaallan

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)

joe_the_waiter

i think i have the idea.... but not enough to explain to someone else.

are you coming to do it Gav?

I'm doing it with Bob

Gav Taylor

nah still dont know what its about so giving it a miss.

Thats what websites and the like are for to tell people what its all about.

How sheltered was your upnringing if you don't know what a treasure hunt is?

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)

Gav Taylor

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?

steaallan

gav man thats hide and seek not a treusre hunt. Didnt you ever watch Anika Rice in that tight suit running around

Gav Taylor

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.

joe_the_waiter

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"
