[The Clubman Challenge Aftermath]

Glad you all enjoyed it the photos will be along shortly subject to the Royal mail delivering the CD. The results are here Clubman Challenge Mow Cop Results

Did any of the guys that stripped down at the end see Alans Stuff, if not it might be worth getting Boothy to nip and have a look?

I have updated the results as it was noticed by he who sets out that I had missed something out on the specials scores, it doesn't change the placing just how long the figures are in the scores. Sorry but I spend all day sat in front of the laptop taking all the radio messages whilst you do your stuff getting to the punches

[What Challenge Events in 2010]

Thanks for the comments guys keep them coming, I was talking with Barney today and we were just discussing that Mow Cop ended up a bit harder than our previous rounds, Sorry about that we will do our best to keep future rounds level, but you don't always know when you are setting it up.

We will work all the comments at our next meeting and feed back here.

[Why the stigma with hydrosteer ?]

If people are going to quote MSA Blue Book regulations then they really should try and do it accurately.

Regulation (F)319 relates specifically to Junior Trials Vehicles (ie modified ride-on lawn mowers for age 7+ drivers)

There is NO other MSA Technical Regulation which relates to steering mechanical linkages.

Thanks Neil I had just reached for the book, I was hoping you or Mark might be watching.

[24th 25th october northern and clubman]

Am i reading this right Barny? are you actually going to enter? Should be interesting, but im not sure its fair for you to set out and play, maybe you should be banned from the easier punches!!!

Or maybe i should come and set out some nasty ones just for you

Nick I think he is hoping that you will do some anyway, he wont win anyway he will get beaten by one of the pro's

[24th 25th october northern and clubman]

How the entries looking for the big Northern event of the year ?????

I'm in full swing preparing the motor.

I am in the process of getting a list of who we have so far, the forms are still coming in though so its looking like being a good event Boothy have you heard from Donk?
