Rally

Just spoke to the organiser who is keen for us to attend this exciting event. If it goes well we can run a couple of days like this next year for the register but a few opinions would be good. Just makes a change from a track day and is arguably more suited to the Evo's.

Come on guys and amp; gals, how many times do you get chance to do a tarmac/ navigational rally across 4 closed stages |PLS| few laps around Pembrey to boot.

Details in the events section |PLS| Wastegate Chatter which is being posted this week

Brian, what an absolutely fantastic event, just feel completely gutted that I can't attend this wkend. I've driven / ridden most UK circuits but this would be something really different.
Please, please, please, try and sort another similar event for all to attend, I'm sure it will be a winning formula. As long as it's kept to Tarmac as stone chips are expensive to repair!!
Come on MLR folk, give Brian some support, this is something special...

Re:

I agree, I think the format sounds great and amp; ideal for these type of cars. Unfortunately we only heard about this event quite late but the organisers are getting together to do a dedicated event for the MLR and amp; SIDC members next year. Proper road book, book in times etc.

I'm in contact with the event organiser who is keen to get the new event off the ground. More info as soon as he passes it to me.

Haynes Autumn Classic

As the only Evo who attended the event on Saturday, just to say what a fantastic event. It's a pity there weren't more Evo's there. It combined both smooth tarmac rally stages and circuit use. This type of event should not be missed! Haynes are planning future events like this at different locations. Mostly aimed at classic cars but ours and two P1's were well received.
