Fabulous reports, altough I wished I could have been there as a spectator , these reports made me feel like I was there.

Jimmy, a quick question, does Hupo run the LRP X11 8.5t or the X12 ?
Looking at the pictures it looks like a X12.

oops - I don't have any of this new LRP stuff personally so I forgot the name:lol:
Thanks for the nice comments (will tidy up the day3 report today)

Is anybody form Oople attending the Worlds in South Africa?

Why has nobody entered from the UK? :cry::cry:

Why has Hupo Honigl not entered and the same can be asked for the rest of the drivers that made the effort to attend the Euros? :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

It can't be money, Spain is a much more expensive country than South Africa? Is it the IFMAR rule regarding batteries, only Ni-MH? :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:

You're going to arrange a charter flight that's cheap ?
