My Lands End Trial

Just got home. Really enjoyed the trial. OK the sections were dry and therefore easier than usual but the Lands End is more than a trial, its an adventure where the first test is your own character. Night run was great. The regularity provides that extra bit of interest.

I thought the County Gate Control worked well. Much better place than the pub up the road. We got there a bit early and were there for 50 minutes but parking was under control. Keep it I say.

We hit some mist at times during the nearly hours but not to m uch of a problem. Being dry us Cannon Fodder actually got up Rodneys Revenge and Cutliffe Lane and we really enjoyed the exit tracks rather than the all familiar escape roads.

The club had its revenge on Bishops Wood where we failed the restart so with luck we may get a Silver. Doesn't matter if we don't. Had a great time.

Oh one last thing. How many trailer loads of that clay were dumped on Crackington? We reckon it was three. As an early number we could still see the distinct heaps! Did the job though. Well done chaps.

How was your Lands End Trial?

Marlin Roadsters and class 7

In the engine list for marlin class 7 cars,  there is  no mention of the alffa twin cam engine?
They were a common fit back in the day, even the factory demonstrators were alfa powered apparently, so why omit them from the regulation.?
