So close and yet so far…. admin, October 8, 2023October 24, 2023 Well, we almost made it. We finished second in class in the Willie Loughman Carrick forest rally today. That means we came second in class 11F in the national forest championship…….

Another headlight (or two) were sacrificed during the day. There’s something wrong that we go through more headlights than tyres. Some improvements were tried out for the day. We managed to bring a fruit bowl to service. The usual crew were in service. Joe couldn’t make it for the full day but managed to make it in time to load the car.

It means we have zero motivation to go fettling with cars in a shed when it’s so lovely outside. This weather means loads of BBQs were had but alas, no pictures. We were too busy eating. Also,… Read More
