The "BiRTAs" - Big Red Truck Awards.


These are the most prestigious and glamorous awards ceremonies (which involve Hot Rock) in the world. Held at the end of each leg of the Hot Rock Global Challenge - they allow Hot Rockers to show off their latest designer clothes and climbing injuries. Held in the most exclusive night spot in town - or the nearest bar - and hosted by the suave and sophisticated Forathon Nine-Point-Smythe they are always a highlight in the busy Hot Rock social calendar.
