The Rules

  1. Competing cars must cost less than £100 (well we cheated a little there but £420 is still peanuts for a car to get us this far!).
  2. Maximum budget for vehicle preparation: £15
  3. Once the Challenge is underway, there will be no form of formal assistance from the organisers in any way - Teams are ON THEIR OWN (apart from other teams).
  4. All of vehicles that make the full distance to Banjul MUST be handed over to the organisers to be auctioned in aid of local Charities.
  5. All vehicles must be LEFT-HAND DRIVE because the Gambia is a left-hand-drive country
  6. Rules 3,4 and 5 must not be broken.  Rules 1and 2 are flexible.
