The first cars out are the vintage cars and we are one of the last ones out. We should be going through around 10 or 11 but will not know the route until the day.

You bringing Godzilla or the FTO?

I'll be there again in the Starlet, and Pendlebury is meant to be bringing a Mini Moke. So at least we'll be able to beat him on the drags! tongue.gif

Oh, and I don't want to be picky (who am I kidding, I'm always picky), but it's Rejex Rally, not Rejects (yes, there's a difference). It's Rejex as it's a play on Redex, as the first Rejex Rally came about because Darwin stopped being part of the Redex Rally one year, so the Rejex Rally was created for all of the rejected Darwinites.

i looked for a website from last years, and found nothing.

was talking to steve today and he gave a good run down on it.

Basically it is a bit of a mega cruise, with stops at old airstrips etc where each participant competes in autokhana events around cones.

Ok this year we start off from mindil beach around 9am, we then travel down the highway doing various obstacle courses. We then have lunch at Mount Bundy and then continue with the courses until we reach Hayes Creek for an overnight stay and dinner. The next day we do the same until we reach Kathrine for the presentation dinner. The cost is $120 per person including all meals and presentation tickets. Worth every cent biggrin.gif Hope this helps

Post #22

it has been covered Kev there is no website. How much more info do you guys need. You meet at Mindil beach and travel outbound along the highway. Along the way you stop on the old airstrips and compete in Motorkhanas which is obstacles around witches hats then you continue on to Katherine. Have dinner the winner wins and then you all come home again. FFS not that hard. There is a date a time what else do you all want.

I'd love to enter again this year, for anyone thinking about it, it is by far the most enjoyable motorsport event of the year! But I don't think I can afford the entry fee this time sad.gif

1200, email Laurie on [email protected] for details and info.
Tis basically cruising down in vague convoy amongst new and old cars stopping at airstrips and other areas for motorkhanas along the way. It's an event aimed solely at having fun, I don't think anyone enters to win. Has a great family atmosphere too!

Here is the email with details of this years event:

G'day all,

REJEX Rally 2008 is not far away and this year the 53rd Anniversary Rally goes "all the way" to Katherine again.

Given the cold snap we're in at the moment, it may be a fresh trip with the temps in Katherine getting very low this time of year.

We again welcome Brustolin Builders on board this year as this years event major sponsor. Mark and Belinda have been great supporters of this event over recent years and we are happy to have them back on board for 2008.

The Saturday night stopover will be in Hayes Creek this year as in previous years and things are shaping up for a great event. The Hayes Creek management have increased its accomodation facilities since last year and there is always the camp sites for those who enjoy the chilly weather.

Details on the presentation diner in Katherine are still to be finalised at this point, and I will send out further info as it is available.

Entries are again being handled by the Darwin Motor Vehicle Enthusiasts Club and the Bank deposit details are on the form to make payment easy. Completed forms can be sent direct to MVEC, or delivered to the QANTAS Hangar in Parap, or faxed to 89471472.

Please note that entries close on July 11 and no late entries will be accepted. This enables orders for shirts etc to be finalisd early and allow time for printing etc, so get your entry in early.

If you have any queries, please feel free to get in contact...........

Cheers

Laurie Feehan

Yes, you can. Car's don't have to be road registered to enter, but have to be trailered between events if they're to compete. All events are held off public roads anyway. biggrin.gif

Can someone please sponsor Alex to enter? He came second in the rally last year - he HAS to enter again to go for first! We need as many people as possible to help try and beat the Lotus. biggrin.gif
