It has been a bit wet today! Did the finish of Test 3 & 6 the STC4, now awaiting the cars at STC12.
It looks very much as if Graeme Cornthwaite & Ali Procter will win again, but.......... there is still about 30 miles to go.

1st Overall Graeme Cornthwaite & Ali Procter
1st Newcomers Richard Derrick & Robert Duley
1st Novice Luke Carroll & Neil Kinch
Best MCR crew (not qualifying for the above awards) Chloe Browning & Stuart Lamb

As ever, big thanks to all the marshals for doing an amazing job, especially considering the weather ;) and everyone that supported the event, including, of course, our fantastic sponsors YBracing 8-)

Class is either expert, newcomer or novice. Time is total time penalties in minutes and seconds across the event. Fails is missed Time controls, passage controls, secret checks or route checks. Hope this helps G. ;)

Brilliant day out Niall. Many Thanks to all you organisers and marshals, it’s an outstanding effort from you all. Especially in those conditions! It was bad enough inside a car!!
Great thing about the weather (and going through 2 swollen river fords) is that the underside of the car And under the arches is super clean!
Thanks again.
Luke
