This year, Offroad Boss King of the Rim has secured 33 competitors that will represent from all across Australia in two classes:

  • Modified - Bodied car on up to 37" tyres
  • Buggy/Truggy - Unlimited

Both classes will be running the same track in the Offroad Boss Arena for the Saturday. This track will be an endurance track, which will consist of five, 30 minute laps. Between each lap, teams will be given the opportunity to have a 10 minute pit stop to refuel and check over the vehicle in the pit area.

The track is suitable for any modified vehicle with lockers and 35" tyres. It is setup as an endurance race, with high speed sections, gully runs, hill climbs, vertical banks and jumps. There won't be any real damaging rock, which will ensure a fast, flowing fun track for both teams and spectators alike.

There will be TJM Equipped Hill Drag race for the Modified class late afternoon Saturday while the Buggy/Truggy class prepare for the ARB Cooper's Plains Night run in Australia's premier gully run, under lights, starting at the bottom and ending at the top of the gully. Teams will be sent off in 2 minute intervals, so passing will be encouraged (under safe conditions).

Scenic Rim Adventure Park would also like to take the opportunity to thank sponsors, Offroad Boss, TJM Equipped (Coopers Plains, Gold Coast, Underwood), ARB Coopers Plains, TORQ 4X4, Offroad Cartel, Dirtcomp Magazine and 4WDtv.

We thank you for your ongoing support and look forward to seeing you next time you drive.
