NAVRUNS

Navruns started back in 2002. We have fine tuned our rules and scoring technique, identified what makes a Navrun so much fun, yet we have made each one unique. We have re-invested our takings into equipment such as brand new digital cameras, breathalyser, speed radar gun, generator and lighting, mobile office, computer equipment, etc, which all contribute to Navrun events getting better and better.

There will be prizes and trophies up to 10th place. Navrun is a team event for two 4WD vehicles. You plot your own course and pick the tracks and situations you drive so this may suit stock standard 4WD vehicles right through to the well prepared competition rigs. There are no classes or class rules but extensively modified vehicles must be allowed to be on the road. All vehicles must be registered and the drivers must be licensed. Other than essential recovery equipment (such as snatch straps, tow points, etc) we do not require specific work to be done on your vehicle. It is simply recommended that each team of two vehicles has the resources to recover itself should the need arise. There will be GPS reference points. Ensure that at least one of you has a GPS. 

Here’s the go … for the day runs we give you a digital camera and a lot of GPS reference points with photos of us at these points. Your mission is to get to these places, identify which photo was taken at that location and take your photo identical to ours to prove you got there. Emphasis is placed on your observation and ability to replicate our photograph. Note, these will not be just boring old holiday snaps. Be prepared for some novel positions and navigational challenges. Other special courses not using the cameras will be thrown in. eg, stick maps, route maps, etc.

Every Navrun is different, and we have a mixture or different courses for each event.  Although there is a minimum of two licensed people per vehicle, you may have more passengers. You may team up with a group of friends or bring the kids. Just make sure they are sharp, on the ball and not camera shy. In most cases, there are officials based at camp so displaced family members and abandoned camping equipment are safe.

Driving will vary from 6 to 8 hours each session. Scores will be tallied in the computer and trophies/prizes will be awarded to drivers and navigators on location at the conclusion of each event.Feel free to copy these details, fax it or pass it around to fellow four wheel drive enthusiasts. In every case the early bird gets the worm.

We will close the entries when we reach the maximum quota that each area can manage.Upon receiving your entry form and payment, we will email detailed particulars pertaining to the NavRun you entered, such as how much fuel you will require, exact location, maps, etc. The cost is $325 in total for the team of two cars per weekend NavRun. Bring many passengers as you like, no extra charge.

Please organise your own food and beverages, as this is a non-catered event.
