IMPORTANT NEWS!

Due to unforeseen cirumstances Round 4 of the Series (Uplowman on September 4th) has been postponed. For further details please contact us.

The 4x4 Adventures Winch Challenge Series is Back!
Round 3 was the first pure Special Stage Round. 10 Stages, no punches, all against the clock. Superpro Europe had kindly agreed to sponsor the course with not only providing the series prizes but also putting up a £150 ‘Spirit of the Event’ prize.

The favorites, assuming they ran all day, Tim Jones and Darren Church, the Country Rovers Chard team with the Hounsell brothers, or Team Gigglepin with Dyer and Jewitt. All trayback, all modified and all with reliable overvolted twin winches. What they hadn’t betted on was it being so close with some of the std+1 and Std car putting in some excellent times on the stages plus the D44 Team being in full swing and keeping them on their toes!

The next round will at Uplowman on Saturday 4 Sep 10. This round will also be purely Special Stages against the clock. Teams can expect to be grouped with a mix of ability to take on a days worth of special stages.

The Series rounds have been generously sponsored by these well known companies, Allisport, Ashcroft Transmissions, OEC International, Goodwinch, Superpro Europe, and West Mids 4x4.

  • Each round will be single day event, the events held in Mar, May, Jul, Sep and Oct.
  • 3 events will be traditional hunt the punch style and 3 events will be based predominantly on special stages
  • Punches will range from standard vehicle through to technical hard punches
  • A three class system will be used and scored using the ‘unique Chris Watts original’ scoring system
  • Prizes will be awarded to each class round winner and the overall series class winners
So if you want to try something different requiring brains as well as brawn then why not give it a go? We guarantee there will be enough to keep everyone busy for the day regardless of whether you are in a standard or highly modified vehicle.
