Re: Vanfest obstacle course for syncros?
Suggestion: pics/vids/links from the syncro RTV trial all in one place, like maybe here?

I'm sure it was much more impressive than that
I didn't need a team of course marshalls picking up the pieces of my van after my run

Re: Vanfest obstacle course for syncros?
Id just like to say that I was only able to come for the day, but the obstacle course made my 2 yr old sons day, he stuck like a limpet to the fance bouncing constantly and making growling noises!! (this means its VERY good!). Seriously to all those who drove - thoroughly enjoyed it great to have something to watch in the afternoon!

Re: Vanfest obstacle course for syncros?
Anyone got a pic of C 767 ARW on the course? No-one's going to believe I completed it!

Great effort by all those involved to make the trial happen. Thoroughly enjoyed watching, hoping I can have a go next year!.
How about this vid?
