Troll wanted

I am looking for a Troll with a view to starting competing in trials in the new year, work not objected too. Please email with details roper@applecottage48.fsnet.co.uk

FWD Kit Cars

Would be interested in your thoughts regarding which class seems appropriate for these cars. Strictly "blue book" speaking they would run in class 7 but would stand little chance of any great success. On the otherhand I'm not sure that class 1 is appropriate either as they (may?) have a significant weight advantage over others.

As the availability of suitable RWD cars diminishes I think we'll see more FWD card in our events. (Suppose could run in Class 1 but with tyre pressure restrictions ??)

Obviously anyone planning to enter with one of these vehicles should contact the Technical Panel but I was just interested what your thoughts are.

The Edinburgh Trial has developed, unnecessarily into a Car Breaker

In the latest issue of Triple Gerald Burridge says:-

 

"May I propose the following motion fort debate - The Edinburgh Trial has developed , unneceessarily into a Car Breaker"

 

What's your opinion?

Exeter 2001 - Slippery Sam

Hi to you all

I  have just been reading through the Exeter 2001 Instructions.

Not having done the trial before I do not understand why Class 5 haven't got a restart on Slippery Sam.

Can anyone shed any light on to this?

Take care & Merry Christmas

Mark
