Hi Allen,
the great central road is the best option for crossing the middle to get to the ALICE, I went across this year in July and I was in a bit of a hurry and we weren't towing anything. You shouldn't have to many issues by driving to the conditions of the road, there were a few areas of corrugations but nothing to worry about, the graders were out doing there work and if you have a two way on channel 40 they will let you know what your running into further up the track, it is a good trip and towing a van I would allow five days to do it in, but that all depends on how quick you want to drive and miss seeing whats to offer out there, we stopped counting the burnt out cars at around 750 and that was long before we got to Warburton. Have fun and enjoy the trip. we did come across a couple of other vans heading toward Kal from Warburton, and they did not have to many issues from the Alice to warburton. have fun.

We didn't get as far as counting 750 burnt out vehicles, stopped way before that.
Just beware that the majority of drivers haven't got "E" plates in their windows for nothing.
Happy and safe travels.

Thanks looks like GCR is the go any more info on this

Google "Great Central Road requirements" and you'll get the best information from this website. Be aware that permits are required for travelling the GCR, as you're crossing Aboriginal Lands.

Take 2 spare tyres and ensure you have plenty of fuel and water. This is a remote area and you're well-advised to treat it as such.

nope - still the same - only difference is you can do it online or with a fax machine...

Thanks Scott, back in those days it was send off the letters and wait 3 months for a reply.
