    Camel Racing

    Seeing its Melbourne Cup time,see how the ARabs do it.Strap a robot jockey to your camel then chase the field with a field of 4x4s using remote controls to work the jockey

    What about closer to home?

    Marree Camel Cup in held about july each year.

    alice springs has a camel cup as well in about July annually.

    I think Forbes, and orange also are having them...

    Marree and Oodna are fun race meetings

    Is there a reference to camels with the gun buggies I'm missing.
    If only that was in the replacement Defender thread

    Boulia camel races 3Rd weekend in July. Thinking about doing a run out there.
    By all means get a Defender. If you get a good one, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.
    apologies to Socrates

    Clancy's gone to Queensland Rovering, and we don't know where he are

    I bet they dont have robot jockeys and a race track around the outside for the "trainers" in their 4x4s to boss the robots
