On Saturday January 16th, we have, despite the cold, gathered in Celje, Slovenia, where second informal Trial Truck race took place.
There were five competitors from Kocke Club, each with his own LEGO terrain vehicle.
Among the contestants were Blaz62, rainworm, Stari89, Whittmann and Zblj who all brought with them vehicles that had to meet the official "Trial Truck" rules; maximum width of vehicle is 25 studs, the vehicle should be four wheel drive and had to be motorized.

In Celje - Golovec, where the event took place, the contestants where confronted with perpetuate route, which consisted of twenty doors. The vihecles are suposed to drive true gates as fast as possible.
The rules are saying that each touch of the gates or manual assistance to vehicle adds penalty time of ten seconds.
Originally seted route has proved to be too difficult as competitors obviously underestimated the power of nature and the winter season.
The competitors agreed to establish a new, steep and easier to drive track as the hill on which the track was designed was quite steep and covered with ice and snow, which represented too big gap for all participating vehicles as they didn't manage to pass over the first gates.
New, modified route, which was due to these winter conditions more flat, was easier for the contestents and all the vehicles managed to drove to the finish more or less successfully. A strong cold pressed and conditions weren't identical to those found at home beside the stove.
Fortunately, our sponsor Duracell was there to provide contestents fresh batteries.
The final winner was determined on the basis of final and penalty time. The audience were having great time despite the cold.
