A few of us are going up to Parkwood 4x4 (formally Tong)on Sunday 15th Feb.If anyone fancies joining us gis a shout and we'll meet up...:)
 
is that to go along with the price increase

did you get banned last time you went
Yeah apparently they bring a card machine for you to pay for recovery although I've not seen it my self, and yeah they have upped the entry fee.

no not banned but I've hd some disagreements with the Marshells as I dint liked bin talked to like crap, and don't like bin told how to use my own winch and blah blah on it went.

Long and short mines a full spec challenge truck front rear winches log travel suspention front and rear lockers, n have bin off roading for long enough to know what I'm doing just cause it's not shiney was enough for them to assume mine was a heap of scrap.
 
Taken from there entry form,

16. Recovery – Please note if you are in need of recovery all the details of how to contact the marshals will be on back of the map you will be given however we do have a large team of marshals on site so you will be spotted by one of them. Please note if you are driving BLACK routes and do not fit the requirements i.e. Winch, Lift Kit etc and you become stuck there will be a charge for recovery. A minimum of 20.00 + this is to cover any costs in the event of any of the marshals equipment becoming damaged i.e. Winch motor burning out etc as the vehicles and equipment are the marshals own personal items. If a marshal has advised you that they will recover you please wait patiently as they locate you and recover you.
 
It's not quite as set in stone as that, but in theory you are not supposed to drive black routes unless you have declared that your vehicle is suitable and then you get a black wristband.

However if you take a mate with you or flag some helpful person down then they'll pull you out without getting the marshals involved

So I wouldn't sweat it at all
 
Road legal only :( need to get an sva sorted so I can get mine back on the road. Bit of a silly rule when mines built to do the toughest challenges in the country but cant go to a pay an play site :(

To be fair that makes sense and seems fair to me especially if marshals are using there own equipment

It's only to keep things simple mate regards entries and liability insurance

Have you spoken to them? They might allow special cases for something which clearly isn't a scrapper

You do occasionally see specials there, but 99% of vehicles have number plates whether they drove in or trailered in to be fair
