The Classic Outback Trial 2012 will commence in Forbes NSW on Saturday 18th August 2012 with a prologue and welcome function, and will be followed by seven days of outback competition heading west to Cobar and Broken Hill and finishing at Renmark on the Murray.

The event will be run over NSW forests and many private properties with a large diversity of terrain incorporating a cross section of what would be found in the Australian outback. With the valuable assistance of Allan Wells, the Clerk of Course of the Condo 750, we have obtained some fantastic property tracks. We are expecting to travel around 400 to 500 km per day with a very high percentage of competitive stages.

The presentation function will be held at Ruston's Rose Garden and Visitor Centre in the heart of Renmark the following Saturday evening. The Ruston's visitors complex has recently been completed and extended, and can accommodate up to 200 guests in a formal dining location. It will be another highlight of the event.

The visitors centre also contains a Classic Car Museum where you will be pleasantly surprised to see an eclectic collection of vintage and historic racing cars.

Entry fee for the Trial will be $3,900
