A Round of the: BP Motor Builders & Engineers CMSG Stage Rally Championship 2010
May I take this opportunity on behalf of Cirencester Car Club to thank everyone involved with yesterday’s event.
A week ago the Cirencester Car Club and the Ltd company had a massive decision to make, with only thirty entries and facing a large deficit, Yesterday proved that the right decision was made and a new event is firmly on the calendar.
Congratulations to Jim Munden & Andy Frost on a surprise final stage victory.
Commiserations to Spencer Chard & Dale Lovegrove, I greeted this pair at the final passage control and to see the despondent looks on their faces said it all, admission of missing a spit and losing an event that they had led for most of the day. Guys your speed on the day will surly bag you a win very soon.
A massive thank you to all the non club officials, all of whom adjusted their normal fees to help reduce the rally deficient, your generosity has been noted and is proof of how strong and loyal the local rallying community is.
I have been involved in Rallying at Down Ampney for close on 30 years, in all that time I have never seen the local clubs work so closely together, I have always been an advocate of clubs not standing on each others toes, this is a credit to you all and to Dave Cooper, Chairman of the Cotswold Motor Sport Group for overseeing negotiations at the venue.
A big thank you to our sponsor Jeremy Wells & Wells Masonry for your kind support of our event.
Our club is extremely fortunate to have one of the youngest club secretaries in the Country Melanie Holmes, she rose above that challenge yesterday and took on the Corinium Stages as well!!
Finally to Mark Holmes who’s delicate negotiations with Cheltenham, Emcos and the land owner have secured another event at Down Ampney, this can only be good for the venue’s future as the agreement between all the clubs is for continued investment in repairs & equipment. Mark and his family have been the back bone of this event, I hope your investment of time has been worth while with such a cracking event.
