This year we have retained our enthusiastic sponsor, Rally Marketing

have been able to keep the entry fee at a very competitive level.

therefore please get your entry in early to avoid disappointment. In
order to assist competitors we have decided to allow the entry fee to

What Pat said ....
Fantastic event, with some great stories and some real bad luck stories,
just a quick gloss over before i get to my much needed bed,
Chris Bayliss/Mark Mason took a fantastic win overall, while Poor Phil
McVay/Nic Cadwallader retired just 2 miles from the end with no oil
pressure while leading!.
Stanny /Neil were flying early on but although fastest on SS1 a head
gasket failing finished them on SS2., 18 yr old Ed Robinson/John Youd
took a strong 2nd ahead of a great drive by Gaz Nutt/Kev haven who took
a couple of stages to wake, Craig pearce/Rob had terrible electrical
problems, as Steve Hancke/Samantha Richardson took the novice win, ahead
of a flying Si Rees/Dan Mayo, who also took the West Mids best improvement
on seeeding award.
Andy Davison/Sandie and Rob Wilson/Dylan had a ding dong scrap all day
to finish 4th and 5th, while Tom Jones/Kev Winslade took their 3rd Beginners
win.
The BMWs saw a new winner with Steve /Ben Cressey taking a cracking
win, while Warren/Derek were leading and in a unbelievable 9th Overall
after 3 stages, they retired on SS4, Mike and Gordon Bradley took 2nd
with Graham White/Martin Cooper 3rd, Toni Carannante/Si Coates took
4th after another eventful day, with Gaz Buckingham/Jez Kemp getting
a great 5th spot . Andy/Liza Fox scored 6th on their debut. While fellow
debs Steve Long/Wendy Gibson were about to call it a day, but were nagged
into ratchet strapping their engine together for a great finish. Pete
Jackson/Keiran O neill, shower great form, in the top 3 BMWs but retired
1 mile from home, when the battery leaked all its acid out, they went
OTL,
