Anybody interested is watching the Australian Safari.
You can't there is NO SPECTATOR STAGES or SPECTATOR
POINTS that they
well tell me about.
Iam so keen to see a fully worked 4 wheel drive at
full speed along an outback road that I drive every
few days in my humble work car.
Can anyone provide me with a route map?
Below is a copy of the email they sent me when i made
enquiries.
Dear Brett,
In relation to spectating points, as the competition
is conducted on private
properties, access is permitted only to competitors
and officials. For this
reason we do not have spectator points to view the
competition.
Spectators are welcome to view the cars arriving at
each overnight stop and
walk around the servicing areas. Competitors are due
to arrive at the
Narromine Rotary Park on Saturday 23 August from
3.45pm. They are due to
arrive at the Back O
Bourke Centre,
Bourke, on Sunday
24 August from 3.50pm.
I trust the above information is of assistance.
Kind regards,
Julie Maher

Your Right - anywhere is better as long as you can watch it in the flesh. Oh unless you have Fox tel, just what you need when travelling around.
