The final edition of Dirtcomp for 2011 hits the newsagents shelves this week just in time for some offroad racing entertainment over Christmas. Edition 27 is once again a gigantic 115+ page magazine packed with everything offroad, including extensive coverage of the Teagle Excavations ARB Pines Enduro, Australasian Safari and the Taupo 1000 in New Zealand. The Albins Goondiwindi 400, Hunter Rivmasta Warialda 200, Milbrodale Mountain Classic and many more major state events are also featured. There is also a centre spread poster featuring the 2011 AORC Champs, Dave Fellows and Mark Bergamin, along with the eight AORC Class winners. Our team also peels the layers off Anthony Kuhn's Micklefab built Tundra TT and check out Dave Cameron's Supercharged V8 GQ Patrol. Plus we bring you a glimpse of Australia's only Auto entry in the 2012 Dakar, Geoff Olholm's BMW powered 4WD.

We also have the breaking news on the SXS/UTV Class that will fill the Class 6 void, an update on the homologation of the Aussie Offroad Kart Chassis and the new Safari Challenge Class.

The Dirtcomp team would also like to thank our contributors for standing out in the dirt, dust, mud and rain - often all on the same weekend, for helping to bring all the action and colour from the races to our pages. A big thanks must also go to our advertisers for their ongoing support and most of all our loyal readers. We are looking forward to a big 2012 covering events from all corners of Australia and have some exciting 4WD's and race cars in the pipeline for our first edition next year.
