Organised by the Viking Four Wheel Drive Club and Midland Offroad Club and sponserd by LRS Offroad, the 2010 LRS Challenge Championship offers six events based at superb venues around the Midlands.

Split into three classes, four wheel drive vehicles are challenged to locate various punches spread throughout the venue. Each punch will be identified by a number to verify it is the desired objective and will be attached to a fixed point on the objective by a cable and its location marked with red & white tape. A control card, which will be attached securely to the vehicle by the organisers, must be marked with the pin punch in the correct box on the control card as proof that the objective has been visited.

The vehicle must negotiate close enough to the point to collect the punch mark without detaching either the pin punch and or the control card. Each punch will carry a predetermined score; the total of these scores will be used to determine a winner. There are usually a number of special tasks, which may be timed to the nearest second. These will also count towards the final scores.

The event(s) will be for individual vehicles, each of which must carry one driver and one co-driver. Competitors are strongly advised to pre-book for each event. 
The best five scores from individual events will be used to determine the individual class champion driver and co-driver.

The Championship is sponsored by LRS OFFROAD suppliers of tough, quality off road gear for your Defender, Disco or Range Rover. LRS OFFROAD are the exclusive distributors of EQUIPE4x4 Products in the UK and Ireland, and export back into Europe.
