FAQ’s:

Hotels/Accommodation Options

For those travelling from further afield, we have discounted stays available at the Briar Court Hotel. Located just minutes away from Mac’s HQ, simply quote Mac’s when booking over the phone to receive the discounted rate of £81 for single occupancy or £91 for a double.

Where should I park?

Parking will be available in the field opposite Mac’s HQ, with the entrance being immediately on your left when turning onto Crosland Road. This will be clearly signposted on the day.

What if I’ve not used FASSI before?

From 9AM you can visit our FASSI familiarisation station where one of our crane experts will be on hand to guide you through the control differences between your current crane and FASSI. The challenges will be based around crane operation rather than setup. Rest assured that the FASSI F905/F1050 Techno Range is the smoothest operating in the industry, so you’ll be off to a flying start.

What catering options will be available?

Participants in the competition will receive a voucher via email for a complimentary lunch from our catering partner, which will be announced in due course.

What is the format of the day?

Gates open at 9AM, participants will need to register before the 10AM competition start time. There will be 3 stations/course layouts to complete, featuring various obstacles, with time penalties added on for mistakes. There will be a special head-to-head challenge taking place for Pete vs Sam Mason (The Hiab Princess) around 1pm. The fastest 6 competitors from across the challenges will be entered into a grand final to decide 1st (£1000), 2nd (£500) & 3rd (£250) places. We would expect the day to be concluded at around 4:30pm.
