This first post refers to the 2011 event.
This superb annual event takes place on 18 September this year (There is a run on the Saturday for anyone interested). See http://www.beatbloodcancers.org/event/t ... ouse-rally. I can supply an entry form by email.

I've changed the date on this thread. I hope we have better weather in 2012 (We are usually lucky). Here are some photos from the 2011 event, in which I entered the Midget, having entered the V8 in 2010. Not sure what I'll enter in 2012.

This has come around once more. Let's hope we don’t get any airborne defecation this year!!

It is October Rich so you have 11 Months to plan a trip to the UK if you want to visit this show.
Understeer: when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.

I now have entry forms, so if anyone wants one, please let me know. Sadly it has been confirmed, that 2014 is to be the last one of these fine events. There is also a run on the Saturday preceeding the show.
