The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he did not exist. And like that... he is gone.

Love the RS2000 bursting out of Barton Ford and the Alpine with the back end round at Cliffe hall.

I am reliably informed that the CHR was not only on TTTV but also mentioned (with footage) on Sky sportsnews yesterday.

Just a quick word of thanks from Dave Marsden and I for another competitive and very well run Croft Historic Rally. With the deteriorating weather forecast we took off early for the drive over the Pennines and were unable to express our thanks at the finish.
So, would you please pass on our thanks to all the team and especially your marshalls who endured seriously cold conditions with great good spirit - they gave is a great day out.

We took home a Cortine with a broken gear box. 1st gear went with a big bang with 3 tests to complete so we limped around (as quickly as we could!) to complete all the tests.
Best regards,

Mike Garstang



We had a great time learning how to use the handbrake. By the afternoon I had more or less worked out how to get the back out, and, by accident as it happens, how to get the front moving while holding the back wheels. And whilst I didn't manage to get the whole 360 I was getting the idea. Anyway, on one of the repeat tests we had 4+ minutes in the morning, and just over 2 mins in the afternoon, so something must have changed for the better.

many thanks and please pass them on to Martin too

Simon and Jacob

Bryan Smith & Ernest Calvert  both really enjoyed the event.  After test 2 Ernest's arms were dropping off and Bryan had a sore throat from shouting, they both expected and wanted to do that test again as the last test - as a sting in the tail!  Ernest's only complaint was the amount of mud on some of the roads - it meant he'd have to clear under the car again!!!

Liked the pictures Simon. Like Martin said, the Alpine at Cliffe Hall was the pick of the bunch!
