RALLY OF THE MIDLANDS AND THE 1,000 LANES
Thursday, 26 June 2008
Even with the club hillclimb in full swing at the weekend there were key officials helping and competing on events elsewhere. On the Rally of the Midlands Eian Pritchard took his Subaru Impreza WRC to a clear victory with Jason Pritchard finishing 13th overall in the Citroen C2 despite losing his way on a stage and picking up penalties. Sara Williams continued her good run of recent form with a useful 25th overall in the Civic despite the presence of the Old Man as 'sack of spuds'! Hillclimb assistant Clerk of Course Stuart Cardell was out with Peter Lewis again in the red Anglebox and took 3rd overall ahead of some faster machinery.
Meanwhile in the deepest depths of the Swansea Valley Mike Jones and Robin Moses (with Peugeot) were plotting for one of their best results to date on the Braces Bakery 1,000 Lanes Rally. With a recently fitted LSD they thrived in the conditions and came home in 7th position overall. Will Arrowsmith didn't have such a good night and after damaging the gearbox in Walters Arena was forced to stay up 'til 4am to fix the car in time for the hillclimb!
