Tech inspection ?

[XJ&CHZ4ME]

I have been searching and with no luck. What are the items that are checked at the tech inspections at events? I am wanting to make sure I have everything covered before I drive a full day to Winterfest just to find out I missed something. I am assuming that it is just the main common sense items such as secure tow points, first aid kit, fire extinguisher, tow straps, hot chick passenger, etc...can someone lease enlighten me on the requirements???

From the bylaws:

Section 3: Required Equipment for Event Participation

1. VERY HIGHLY recommends that all event participants have a CB Radio.
2. requires all listed items to be present, and available for use, for a vehicle to be permitted to participate in a event. Participants are expected to stow equipment and all other items within their vehicle in a safe manner, conscious of the effects of OHV use and possible shifting of items.
3. Safety Inspectors will use this list for safety inspections prior to any event. The Safety Inspector has final say in approval or rejection of any vehicle for event participation and may at anytime defer to a second event or club officer for additional ruling.
4. expects each event participant to carry insurance and registration sufficient to meet the legal requirements of their vehicle state of residence and for the roads and trails traveled for the event. is not responsible for assuring an entrant's vehicle is legal for the roads and trails traveled in the event.

Equipment List

1. Visibly charged fire extinguisher (BC or ABC)
2. First aid kit
3. Adequate spare tire, jack and lug wrench
4. Safety belts for driver and any current passenger
5. Adequate attachment points in the front and rear of the vehicle:
   1. Acceptable forms of attachment points: (All Items must be mounted in a manner to provide adequate strength and integrity)
   2. Tow hooks of OEM or greater integrity
   3. D-Rings
   4. Shackle/Clevis
6. 20ft 10,000lb snatch strap without any metal hooks
7. Secured battery (no bungee cords)

you pretty much nailed it. don't forget that no metal hooks on your straps.

be prepared that if this is your first time at winterfest that you must be willing to share the hot chick with the rest of us, and she will be expected to set topless around the campfire regardless of the temps.

look forward to seeing her, I mean you there.

kunaji, thanks for the low down. I have everything listed already, so I should be good to go.

Dan, dependant on the hot chick...anything is possible!! If it so happens to be my wife...maybe not so much...but maybe by then I will have adopted a few 23 year old foster daughters!!!
