HE PALAR CHALLENGE – 2010

EVENT REPORT

At the outset let me address all the off-roaders who made it for TPC 2010 you guys are the BEST.

The standard of these years’ participants has encouraged us to take the event to the next level in 2011.

Those who missed it, you guys have another year to get prepared

All the last minute entries that were turned down, please make your reservation within time, you had 4 months.

For the vehicles that did not pass scrutiny – sorry but it was for your own safety and the well-being of the vehicle. We are sure you understand why, now that you have seen the event.

Some of the participants did not take the warnings on the website seriously and had to pay a very expensive price to learn that instructions are meant to be followed.

This year we had a tremendous response with 11 Teams competing.

The Indo-Lanka Team was back in full strength 3 Vehicles & 6 Competitors.

The three teams from Bangalore, complimented the Indo-Lanka team in raising the event to another level.

We look forward to more participants from Sri Lanka in the years to come.

Keeping with Adventure Zone’s eco-friendly motto, there were penalties for littering. All participants had to bring back the litter from their lunch hampers at the end of each day and were docked 3 points for each item missing.

The Adventure Zone campsite was brilliant, in terms of logistics, comfort and cost. We are happy to say that participants got comfortable air-conditioned tents, deluxe toilets and excellent food on all days. The packed lunches were adequate and tasty, and participants were provided with 5-lit water cans, plus tetra-packs of fruit juices etc. in individual ice-boxes.

DAY 01
We left the campsite at 6:00 am, after an early breakfast.
The participants were split into two groups Red and Blue for a staggered start, to avoid cluttering up on the riverbed.

OTR Distance for Day 1 - 26 kms: Wallahjahbad to Chenglepet

At the Start Line the teams were flagged off towards the Special Stages (SS). Each SS was marked by a flag, and manned by the organizers. The participants had to find their own way across the terrain and execute their own recovery. It was a blistering hot day with temperatures nudging 40 C and humidity close to 85%. However, all the vehicles and participants held out very well. The large supply of juices and ORS came in very handy.

Here are the various SS:
SS 10– 3 Climbs with Slush Exit (Maj.Roy MM540)
SS 9 – 5 Point Climbs (Venkat CJ3B)
SS 8 – Rapid 3 Climbs (Aravind)

SS 3 – "Palm" spurs & re-entrants (Deep)
SS 2 – 4 Point Climbs ( Senthil MG410W)
SS1 – 3 Climb In and Climb Outs (Manoj Shah)

DAY 02
Day02 added some cheer to the participants as the weather was less demanding.

We reached the riverbed by 07:45hrs.

OTR Distance for Day 2 – 12 kms: Boothur to Pulipurakoil
Here are the various SS:
SS 1– 3 Point Climbs Manoj Shah MM540DP)

This was my first TPC, and I enjoyed being part of the O-team.

The disclaimer at the TPC web-site says : 'Not for sissies... this is The Palar Challenge, not a  off-road excursion with 4WDs.
Whiners, stay away!'

But somehow, a few sissies and whiners did make their way into the TPC 2010  Very Happy
