RED Winches is proud and very pleased after the year we have all had to hold the Winch Challenge Stampede event again for 2021, at the amazing Uplowman site, near Tiverton.
The 2021 event is a single truck event, and the object of the event is for the driver / Co-Driver to locate and get as many punches on route and in as many sections along the route over the whole weekend.
The event route is a one way system, and will take you all around the site and be called “The Lap”, each lap we are estimating will be around 5 miles long. Along the Lap to each side of it will be challenge sections / areas, designed and set out by the RED Winch team. There will be technical driving, winching and Skills needed within the sections
For all involved it will mean a lot of seat time in your trucks, giving you space and time to enjoy being in your trucks once again.
As with previous events, this event will keep you moving all weekend in your trucks… be prepared for a full weekend of off-roading. The course will be designed not to create bottle necks and allow the trucks to keep on challenging all weekend, which should mean there is always something to do or a section to head into.
Same control format that everybody has enjoyed in the past From Red Winches, return to HQ once completed each lap is completed, you will be given your next punch card for the next lap….one way system around site means everybody keeps moving.
We are putting lots of effort in to make it an event you will all be glad to return too and enjoy. Great trophies up for grabs…
