Not too bad for something thrown together in 10 mins. Got a shed load of footage, but if I don't use it, I usually forget about it.

Got 20 odd clips from Xmas eve in the snow I've done nowt with yet

The third installment of the Off-Road Challenge seems to be a success! We kicked off the night at the car park in El Burro Heights, and due to some ah... tomfoolery, we moved due to the swarm of emergency services that kept ramming our cars.

We set off across the hills away from Los Santos and soon reached the first checkpoint, where we stopped to vote on what car we thought was the best looking. After this, we carried on across the mountains to the second checkpoint at the power station, where we each did a timed lap. After leaving the power station, we continued climbing mountains and struggling over coastal rocks until reaching the quarry, where we had another set of timed laps.

After this it was a run to the finish, pausing on the beach in Paleto Bay for an impromptu race to the finish line - the most northern car-accessible point on the map (this did not count towards results). The final event was voting on which car we felt performed the best throughout the night. It was good fun for all involved and I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did. Below are the results from the night.

The way this works is that at the start of the night, everyone starts on zero points. You lose one point for each time you have to respawn your car due to either falling into the sea or simply it being stuck. You will also lose a point if you cannot make a certain part or if you skip a certain point (such as the rock crawling part). Respawning at checkpoints does not affect points. The top three in each event will gain points (first will receive 3, second gets 2, and third gets 1).

So firstly, a list of drivers and their cars.

Well done DoubleG for bringing the best car on the night. In true Top Gear style speeeeeeeeeeed was key! Unfortunately the plucky Panto trundled in last, probably its rightful place in an Off Road event.

Thanks all for coming, thanks to Aslad for putting on a great nights entertainment.

That car was not created using a mod menu, every aspect was generated using in-game functions. 

Fozzie Functions!

But seriously I have no idea where you lost 2 points, @Aslad is the man for that question.

Can you smell what the Stone is cooking?

For you G it was skipping two of the route difficulties (as an example the rock crawl bit) I can't remember what they are off the top of my head but I noted them down as tallies at the time they occurred.

What was I disqualified for?  Was it for use of the Cargobob during one of the ascents?  Mrs Dave was delighted to find out her car was second best looking, second best performing and also the most expensive (which for a Scotsman is no mean feat) but being disqualified from the final results has 'brought shame on this household'

You weren't disqualified 😛 Chubb just didn't amend the post when I noticed a mistake in our pm* (I'd accidentally put catman twice)

It should read:

5. Catman (Stanier) - 8 Points
6. Road2Fury (Tailgater) & Dave (Cheburek) - 4 Points

Chubb is a bellend....

but Salad missed it too 😉

Anyway it was more fun disqualifying Dave. 

All sorted now. 👍

Spoiler

Sorry Salad 😞
