6th Bovey Down single venue clubsport classic trial Sunday 25th April

Hello again.  The organising team for the 6th Windwhistle Motor Club single venue clubsport classic trial on Sunday 25th April in the woods at Bovey Down near Seaton Devon made a site visit to the venue on Saturday and all is looking good.  We have plenty of ideas to spice the event up a bit and make some changes so as there are a few places left and the closing date is this Saturday 17th April dont leave it too late to get your entry in.  Normans Hump and Clinton, 3 times, in the daylight, plus one or two wiggly ones in and out of the trees and may be the benefit of some mobile rainfall during the day is all adding up to a lot of fun in the trying out of different tyre pressures, restart techniques, throttle control, etc. Sid Vale Carnival Club catering tent on site all day and portaloo on site.  Entries to Anne Whellock 01460 53645.  anne.whellock@btconnect.com  Marshals volunteer please to Anna Robinson david@robinson2x.plus.com

Car 137 on Bishops Wood, Lands End Trial 2010.

I thought I'd post this rather nice clip here. Its car 137 being thrown up Bishops Wood by Brian Hampson.
I've put a few clips up on Youtube and will add more over the next week.
You'll find them here:

All clips were filmed by Jon Elliott.

Some sections of 2010 Land's End

How was your Lands End?

I thought it was a tough one, challenging, fair but tough.

We experieced all sorts of weather. Sun on the way to Popham, a clear sky on the route to Bridgewater, some snow remaining under the hedges across Exmoor, persistent rain after lunch, clearing as we arrived at the finish.

We started the sections in good mood when we saw a generous restart box on Fellons Oak. It was pretty muddy though, especially the exit track, pointing to the conditions for the rest of the trial.

We were defeated by Rodneys Revenge and Cutliffe Lane. More momentum next time? No restarts on either Beggars or Daracott, be nice to know more about the thinking there as it left them pretty un-competitive.

Crackington, what a buzz and very knowledgable spectators. Blue Hills was a real sting in the tail. We saw quite a few failures on 1 and were delighted when we didn't join them. Suffered the indignity of the winch on 2 when I made a bad choice on pressures. The engine bogged down and I couln't get it back. Understand the bit after the restart was "challenging"

How was your Lands End ?

Edinburgh Trial Sections

Hello There,

The Edinburgh Trial Route Team are on the lookout for new sections. As you know from last years event we need some new hills. Can you help with any ideas?

Derbyshire is proving more and more difficult so we need to consider spreading our wings, perhaps considering Staffordshire and Yorkshire as well as our usual area. More radical ideas? Tell me them as well.

At this stage we can consider anything. Rights of Way, Private Land, Free, Paid For. If you have an idea call me on either 01332 832750 or 07860 559496.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
