About

BYO TENT,
SWAG OR BAG

This trip is not about creature comforts.

This run is a journey of discovery. You will get to discover new places, new friends, new things about you, and you will get to test your skills and patience as you navigate the roads together.

It’s a challenge, and it’ll be dirty, dusty, maybe muddy, and tough. You won't know where your going, and you have to trust your co-drivers map skills, but it’s going to be an amazing experience and something that you’ll remember forever. We will be camping at all locations, so you’ll need to bring your own tents swags and bedding.

What's it all about, and how do I enter?

Where does the money go?

HEADIN' Bush

The four nights during the event will see participants experience an array of camping venues, from sleeping rough in the bush or tenting somewhere. Participants will enjoy the friendship of nature and each other’s company. We won't be providing details of the camp, until each leg of the run. Afterall, this is a journey of discovery.

During the adventure, we’ll organize all of your meals Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. Camping locations are often one of the highlights of the event.

ITINERARY COSTS

Each two-person team (per vehicle) needs to raise a minimum of $2,000 (but hopefully a lot more) to participate in the run. As there are two of you, it’s only $1,000 each. Plus $600 per participant, which covers meals and camping expenses during the 5 day experience, and $150 entry fee per vehicle.

When you register, you will be given access to your members area, where you can access all current information regarding the run.

You’ll get plenty of advanced notice before departure for you to prepare for little surprises that may challenge your team.

Fundraising

All teams are encouraged to raise much needed funds to help offset the vehicle registration fee of $2,000 each.

So, start badgering your friends, work colleagues, and family, and brainstorm some fun ways to boost your fundraising.

Fundraising Ideas

TEAM DETAILS

We respect that the teams put a remarkable effort into fundraising, so we want to keep the costs to participants down as much as we can. We have worked hard to keep any other expenses to a minimum. The registration fee goes towards all your run merchandise, support and important safety items.

Each team is made up of two drivers and one car.

This is because we may need all the extra room we can get for passengers of machines that don’t manage the entire journey. We’re only able to take a certain number of people on the journey, so by keeping to only two people per team, we can get more teams into the run.

The Winner

No, it’s not a race, but yes, you can win. Prizes are awarded at the end of the run. The main prize, or first place if you’re competitive, will be judged on a range of factors, including how hopeless your car is, how much you’ve embodied the event spirit, and how much money your team raised. There’s also likely to be a number of other undisclosed factors that the Dirt n Dust Director will generally make up as the duel unfolds.
