The All-Level Awesome Earthmovers Operator Challenge at Plantworx 2023 is an event you won’t want to miss!
Awesome Earthmovers host Operator Challenge at Plantworx 2023 – sponsored by HD Hyundai Construction Equipment. Nine different challenges to complete!
Plantworx has built a reputation for pioneering innovation and showcasing leading technological advancements from all sectors of the construction industry.
Awesome Earthmovers has been invited by the Plantworx team to host the inaugural Operator Challenge at the 2023 show, which is taking place next week at the East of England Arena and Showground from the 13th to the 15th of June this year.
AE’s have teamed up with some of the leading names in the construction industry to bring a range of nine different challenges to the arena where operators of varying skill levels can pitch themselves against each other in a series of timed trials.
Whilst many traditional operator trial competitions are aimed at experienced operators, the Awesome Earthmovers Operator Challenge has been designed to allow operators of any skill level to take part.
The event will be hosted by our good friend Peter Haddock from Content with Media and will feature guest appearances by many of the UK’s leading social media influencers such as Amy the Digger Girl aka Amy Underwood, Conor the Digger Driver aka Conor Kelly, Bearded Excavation aka Lloyd Peckham, Lord Muck aka Kurt Mills, Tracklass1 aka Lana Edwards and newcomer, Ben ‘the operator’ Wade, who has a very bright future ahead of him.
Dale Hawkins, Director, of Awesome Earthmovers said, “ The trials have been designed to be 100% accurate and 100% fair with each registered operator being supplied with their own timecard and invited to complete all nine challenges.
Each time a challenge is completed, the time is officially recorded and the operator with the fastest combined time including penalties on the last day of the show will be crowned the winner.”
There will be goodie bags and trophies for the top five runners-up and a holiday for two for the winner to the value of £3000.
Dale added, “It’s not just a challenge but a great place to meet up with fellow operators and industry celebs at the catering tent over a coffee, situated right next to the Get Connected Zone where visitors can view all the latest technology-equipped machinery demonstrations in action.”
