MG Car Club Spring Trial - Lintridge Farm

Last Sunday I went to the MG CC Spring trial.  Although the entry list was quite small there was a varied collection of cars competing.  Unfortunately the dry conditions meant that many of the hills were relatively easy I think everyone enjoyed themselves.

My Photos of the event on Smugmug can be found here:-

I hope you enjoy them.

Discovery Turbo Channel

This Sunday (20th March) the Discovery Turbo on Sky (Ch523) are playing the whole 'Off The Road' series. It starts at 0600 and runs until 1100 then restarts again.

The episodes that maybe of more interest are:

0600 Hill Rally. We follow the fast and furious exploits of a Salisbury Plain Rally off-road team as they battle appalling weather, mud mayhem and mechanical gremlins.

0630 Sporting Trial. One of the cheapest and oldest forms of off-road motorsport, these sorting trials are deceptive. They look bizarre, but you try driving one of them...

1000 Production Car Trial. It's a must-see! Everything from Ford Escorts to 70-year-old MGs band together to tackle a series of off-road courses set throughout the Clee Hills.

The full listing can be found here:
