[J4MIE]

Do you know what dates Charterhall and Tour of Fife are?

Charterhall has moved a week earlier due to the Border Counties moving dates, so is now March 29th.

Tour of Fife is 5th July, will be my new local event and hopefully a good one at that :)

Yeah that does get a bit annoying but the second part of the year usually sees a few circuit races and hillclimbs, plus the Le Mans Classic. It tends to be the October to lat January gap that is the most difficult. Also the fuel is an issue, especially with current prices, so getting to many more events gets a bit more expensive.

The main problem is that it will always mean that rallying is cold and wet, I see pictures of rallies in warm sunshine but I'm pretty sure someone has mocked them up in photoshop :laugh:
