After a two-year break due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the ARB Australian Off Road Racing Championship heads to Millicent for the Teagle Excavations ARB Pines Enduro.

With the third round of the Australian Championship complete, participants will look to the final of the season in the pine forests around Tantanoola and Teagle’s quarry to cap off their year.

After entries opened last week, a steady flow of contenders signed on, with early entrants in the draw to win a $500 cash refund.

Being the final round of the national series, with the outright honours still up in the air, the event will be hotly contested, with a strong field of outright and class followers expected to take to the Teagle Quarry start line on the last weekend in September.

The format will include a prologue and short-course racing on Saturday, September 24, plus the long course through the Tantanoola Pines Forests on Sunday, September 25.

A season presentation dinner will be held at the Millicent Civic Centre where winners will be crowned and take home a share of the prize pool from ARB 4X4 Accessories and Mickey Thompson Tires.
