Rock crawling returned to an old favourite on the weekend with Rover Park near Tenterfield hosting the fourth round of the W.E.Rock Series. Twelve teams hit the six tracks, split between the creek bed filled with boulders, ledges and drop offs and the massive rock face further up, which provided great spectating as the crawlers battled gravity on the wicked side slopes.

Anthony and Ryan put in consistent drives to finish second in the single seater.

After the two days of competition it was Bond Racing that came out on top in the Unlimited Class, finishing on 34 points, just 4 points ahead of the yellow single seater of Anthony and Ryan in second. Andy and Dusty to the JMW Rental into third with 50 points. Short Shorts Racing comfortably won the Extreme Class on -70 points.
