Welsh Rally 2007 & Night Owl
Monday, 7 May 2007
Despite a fairly meagre entry, the 2007 Welsh Rally ran well without any time consuming accidents which often ruin time schedules. Two members of BMC were out and about, Martin Jones accompanied Austin McKinlay in a Peugeot 205 GTi but this was to be one of Jonesey's shorter rallies as they crashed at Llandeilo'r Fan triangle on stage 1!! There was better news from the other club member, Chris Phillips, who accompanied Baron Von Charles in the usual Escort to a career best 7th overall. Despite a hard week of campaigning for the Talgarth Popular Front in the local elections Chris was remarkably fresh at the finish.
The previous weekend saw Mike Jones & Robin Moses heading to Aberystwyth in search of Welsh Road Rally Championship points. Things were going well for the duo until a driveshaft was damaged and they had to limp to the finish at a much reduced pace. Despite this more points were claimed.
