The entry fees for 2023 will be increasing only slightly we have not increase prices for event for many years
The Viking 4×4 Club is a not for profit organisation but we have to cover costs in order to survive. Due to increased venue and trophy costs the entry fees for single day CHALLENGE events. the events will have to go up to £65 (was £55) if paid in advance and £75 (was £65) any time after 8.00pm on the Friday preceding the event. It is the club’s aim to keep cost to a minimum, but fees may have to increase in reaction to increases in costs.
For now, the experience day fees will remain at £30.

Brilliant day at Odyssey Round 5 at Wormhough Farm, Leek today. Massive thanks to Steve King and the set-up crew. To Tomasz at the helm and to our host Ken Fallows for giving us such a great welcome.
The podium teams in all 3 classes aced it & thoroughly earned their trophies with some incredibly close scores between them. Many of the teams that didn’t quite make it today would likely have been winners at some other events. You all put on a great display of challenge action.
