well, after over a year away from historic rallying, i have registered for the championship again, i won the masters and finished 4th o/a in 2010 despite not finishing the year with back trouble, i hope i am now fit enough to contest 9 or 10 of the 11 rounds, entry in for round 1, ali proctor on the maps, we have only done one event together but got on really well and finishe 3rd o/a, will be a bit competition rusty , so a top 10 first time out would be good so should be doing a bit more of this in 2013,





this is the champioship,

Will be nice to see LRK ot again, we will be out on rounds 3 and 8

Was LRK featured in Mini World some years ago ? seem to remember it had a Wortz airbox?



Good luck with the racing



Jens Christian

Well Jon, I will be out on this event also so will be trying to achieve fastest Mini on the tests in my 1275GT .... I live in hope but the navigation we have no cHance with ..... I can say this knowing my navigator does not frequent this forum.

So its a while since I did this event , are M&S tyres the choice for this or not?

Will do Jon, go past your garage on way to start venue I think?...the hardtop was a real find...£80 on e-bay !!

So Jon , Brynmor are you all sorted for Saturday ? Are you arriving Friday or Saturday ? I will be pleased to finish the event and go the right way all day..... I live in hope and trust my navigator is not reading this.

See you on the weekend

David

Yes think so, the trips gone in yesterday....I only live 20 miles away so it's home for me for the night and back Saturday....reading the finals I see Mr Sparrow is one of the guests along with John brown...

arriving friday sometime, ahh, the vagueness of navigators , doesnt the 998 look out of place in the finals, am surrounded by 911"s and a bloody great 4.2 tiger up me bum , see you both sometime,

Good luck gang, hope to hear that some giant killing has gone on!

Niall.

thanks niall, i am sure we will all be having a reet go

I'm easily identifiable as the person who will be in pain getting out of my MGB ...yes my sodding back has gone !!
