    I think it's 90 times a year. You do need to carry a log book. There is two types H plate is historic and M plate is modified. The M plates need to be engineered. Nobody get that one as the coppers don't enforce it. Yet.

    Pretty close. You can get 45 days or 90.
    The car must be 25 years or older, and you need to be a financial member of a club, and abide by their rules. You also need a full RWC.

    Yeah look you could drive all the chicken tracks without a locker but what is the point... Front locker is absolutely required.

    You might be surprised how far a well sorted 4x4 with the right tyres and driver will go.
    Some guys make it look easy ,,,Trent Leen springs to mind, and no damage either.
    Anyone can floor it up a hill eh but I think we're past that stage,,,lol
