    I’ve noticed British events are always held until after the event, most others seem to be published before the event. Is that a requirement from Motorsport UK or collectively each rally organiser requests that?

    Great day out on Sunday at the NORC event at Pickering. Amazing sounding machinery and lots of big jumps to photo and hardly any red and white tape on show! Bit of an Italian job situation at one point but the crew were fine and back out later in the day.

    Can highly recommend a trip out to an AWD/NORC/Comp Safari event where speccies are allowed as very informal and generally less hassle than a stage event with good sensible marshalling and a sense of fun, something which is missing elsewhere. A lot of the crews build their own cars and the engineering on show is often very enterprising which makes a nice change from generic cars on show on other events.

    Hopefully will get some pics up at some point!

    No need to apologise! Thanks for your efforts! More amused/bemused by the wider situation...

    Dont just think its us that put the stupid in rallying. Out in Lanzarote for what should have been the 3rd round of the Spanish SCER but which was cancelled on the eve of shakedown with all the main teams having shipped their cars and support team to the island. The ecology lobby had forced a reduction in stage km already but that wasnt enough for them and it appears powers within the local government pressed for licences not to issued resulting in cancellation. There are going to be massive repercussions. For me its a pisser as am using some of next years leave however the weather and seafood is a comfort@

    Great battle in Killarney between Fisher and Devine, with fractions between them & even the same time on the 2nd run over Molls Gap (beating the bogey time) !
    The Polo drivers are much stronger here than Moffett in the old i20.
