Hey syncros are very rare around our area, I would know!!! I'll catch up with you when I contact an off road club.
Sorry, I didn't ask . . . what Syncro are you driving? And have you been to any of our Syncronaunt meets?

Sorry I'll pm questions that are localised in future.
Well the 4x4 club quest continues, I have checked out many and have seen reports of newbies being ignored and rejected at clubs . . and they were men . . . they will chew me up and spit me out!!
Lowrangers.org appears to be the best and a good calendar of events . . . so I went to register and guess what the page has an error on it and the registeration service is down . . . is this a sign that I should not cross over to the darkside!! Some reckon they have been tipped off
Could I ask, are there any Syncro's closer to Nantwich, Cheshire than 22miles, I was asked this question and felt sure there weren't . . . unless Custard still owns a Syncro, I know of no others?
I will endeavour to approach a local club and hopefully have another syncro to go along with me . . . but failing that . . . I wonder what the off roading is like in Spain?

Others will know better than me, but Spain seems to have the perfect landscape for off-roading. Although they are very strict regarding overnight sleeping & some places seem to only allow guided tours, which I would totally hate.
Bit like Norway, beautiful country side, but not allowed off-road at all.
As to newbies being ignored might well be the case, but some people, especially the type of people who run home & write reports on the 'tinternet, are pr1cks & need to be ignored!!

Get the ferry from Portsmouth to Santander and I'll be quite happy to show you around my neck of the woods. The only thing I ask is that you don't mention the marriage proposal to the wife!!

This post is between Syncro owners that respect Syncro women and their off roading! I don't think anyone is laughing at anyone . . . work it out !!

have a look at NORC, its mainly ricking but they also do a bit with trialing and such, also AWDC, who have a much larger trialing scene, you'll be more than welcome
