Honours

The team has been fortunate to pick up a few awards on our travels...

 

Dalby Forest 2011

Our first ever trophy.

To say we were surprised would be a massive under statement !

Border Bogies 2012

First event of 2012 saw us pick up another trophy.

Once again it wasn't for speed, this is the "Thomas Crapper Award" - Yes the company is still going ! It is awarded for "Engineering and Ingenuity" - Or generally, the one that everyone liked the look of..


 
Border Bogies 2013

The trophy we won in 2012 was one that had to be returned...

However, this year we received a trophy that we can keep.

This was received for the "Best Bogie Moment".

Dom crashed the cart most spectacularly... And having spun over 360 degrees, bounced it off its roof and smashed up the canopy. Amazingly, he came to a halt upright on his wheels...

We have a photo in the gallery showing that for a short time all four wheels left the ground with the cart at 90 degrees to the track.

List of achievements looks as follows...
