00:00Lining up to face a brutal four-hour test of mental and mechanical fortitude.
00:07It's a 100% new track this year, so no one along this line has anticipated and seen what's ahead of us.
00:14For a crowd of hundreds, Camfari is a chance for the North's mud-loving rev-heads to come together in celebration of the end of the wet season.
00:30Digging deep to escape a gruelling quagmire, riders battle heat, obstacles and back-breaking work to save their bikes from the swamp.
00:39We've seen people hit trees, we've seen people get bogged, so many people vomiting.
00:44While many stay high and dry, brave spectators join in the drudgery, wading in to lend a helping hand.
00:51This is a pretty good mud section, eh? This is definitely going to test them out and this is only the second lap.
01:00Imagine what it's going to be like in four hours.
01:02The conditions of this year's race have broken up the pack, with some favourites still yet to complete their first lap one hour in.
01:09Camfari is truly living up to its reputation as the Northern Territory's muddiest test of endurance.
01:15We've chosen this area because the Camfari is an iconic mud plains, flood plains, mud race.
01:22So we want the guys to struggle, we want our quad racers and our bike racers to actually prove their skills.
01:29An enduro racer herself, vice president of the organising club Wendy Hogarth says the dynamic race format keeps men and women coming back year after year.
01:38The good thing about an enduro, even if it's on a shorter track, every time that you go for another lap the tracks change.
01:44People have ridden over it, so rocks are different, things look different.
01:48The test of mind and machine no match for winner Daniel McInnes, his first victory in over ten years.
01:54Definitely, I'm proud of it. It's a tough race and I'm just glad to be a winner again.
02:00And while the mud will wash away, just finishing this race at all is an achievement worth getting messy for.
02:08Thank you, everyone.
02:10So, do you have a great ander and a half a day, so this is the other.
02:11That you can never do, but you can never do.
02:13The drag racer for that one.
02:14You can never do, so you cannot do it.
02:15Thank you, thank you.
02:17The drag racer for that.
02:20You need to be the keeper of this.
02:21There is a great one, so you should be the one, so you should list it.
02:23You should be the one.
02:25The next step in the end here.
02:28Then you need to be the third and the other.
