Tuff Truck Challenge Australia

21/02/2024

Good Afternoon Tuff Truck Challenge Australia Fans.
Unfortunately the 2024 event will not be going ahead in April.
The regulatory approvals required to host the event have not been issued in time for TTC2024.
At this stage we are continuing to seek the required approvals for the 2025 event due to run May 2nd>4th. As soon as we have more information, we will update everyone here. Apologies, but the requirements for approvals have become very very difficult to obtain, however we will keep fighting for 2025.

UPDATE ON PRE-ORDER MERCHANDISE COLLECTION .

Thanks to everyone that supported the TTC2023 pre order merchandise service.
A huge apology must go out to a number of orders that were not available for collection at the event.
60% of pre-orders were fulfilled, but regrettably, the remainder were not.
Unfortunately, we had an unprecedented number of last minute unforeseen hurdles with event compliance that required the upmost attention to ensuring the gates opened.

Once this was sorted, the next biggest hurdle was completely oblivious to us at the time ..
We used a new ticketing system this year and were extremely pleased with the outcome of ticketing service.
However, we were not completely educated in the merchandise side of this system which lead to almost 100 disappointed customers, to whom we sincerely apologise to.

For those that have already made contact, we will be in touch early this coming week.

** Solutions **

Hoodies re-order is already in motion, to those who missed out first is most important and it is a relatively simple process as its sourced locally.

Polos & Tees are a little more tricky. As they are sourced overseas.

By Tuesday 9th this coming week we will be given a timeline of when we can be supplied these & then work out the strategy to get them out to customers. Once all pre-orders are finalised we will then release remaining merchandise online for purchase.

If you have a pre-order that was not fulfilled & would prefer an immediate refund, please email us directly or via the trybooking system and we will attend to it as soon as possible.

Regards
Tuff Truck Team

The introduction of the Legends and Limited classes for the 2023 Tuff Truck Challenge proved to be a popular addition to the event.

Aimed at encouraging some 'Old School' full bodied rigs to hit the Milbrodale Rocks, it was the Team ATOR Hilux of John Swab and Ben Brown who came out on top in the Legends Class with 707 points. Joining them on the podium for second in class was Warren Lewis and Jimmy Haranto in the Black Dog Rangie with 570 points.

With a maximum of 42" rubber, no rear steer or portals, the new Limited Class delivered some great competition. After three days on the Milbrodale rocks, the Limited Class could have gone either way in the shoot out with just 39 points splitting Zest and Short Shorts Racing. However with both teams timing out on the climb into the Rockgarden, it was Dean Beacher and Nathan Hancock who piloted the Zest 40 Series to the Limited class win on 835 points. Forcing Warren Hatherly and Brendan Hatherly from Short Shorts Racing to settle for second in their Suzuki with 794 points.
