Hi Viji this looks like a great event and Including an SUV class is a great idea! Appreciate it very much. There are more and more SUV owners that are modifying their vehicles for Offroad use and I am glad that you are holding such events to encourage SUV owners further.


I'm interested in participating, have a few questions:
1. If I don't make the first round can I still participate in the second round?
2. What are the essential spares that you are mentioning as mandatory?
3. Will a snorkel be required?
