cast iron Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 For info should anyone be interested This weekend sees the publication of regulations for the nine stage events which are being run as part of The Rally Show at Chatsworth 2008. Simultaneously, the entry lists for those events will open and - if the spate of entries for the Stage Sessions is anything to go by (over half the places available for them are already filled) - anyone wishing to get an entry on the full-blown stage events will need to get their paperwork in quickly. Fortunately, some of this can be done online at the Show's web page, through which more than 30 drivers have already got their names down. But the full details and entry fees have to go by post and it is their arrival which will finally decide who get the places on the starting list. Of the nine events being held over the weekend of 7/8 June, four are restricted to registered teams and drivers from the Tesco 99 British Rally Championship, all of whom stand to gain bonus points for competing in the events at Chatsworth. Other events are scheduled for Historic & Classic Cars, Post-Historic Cars, All-Comers Cars (ie: MSA Vehicle Regulations), and - the top event - for World Rally Cars, S2000s and Group N4 cars, for which the C.G.Neill Trophy is awarded. There is one additional event to mark the 40th anniversary of the Ford Escort in rallying: this is split into four classes for Mexicos, Twin Cams, RS2000s and RS1600s, all Mk1s. The on-stage activity will, as last year, include the popular History of Rallying feature. This year, the theme is 50 years of the British Rally Championship. Already, invitations are on their way to a wide spectrum of machinery, starting with traditional British sports cars like the Triumph TR3a and Austin Healey Sprite, then going via exotic Group B cars to modern cars which were competing just a few years ago. At the same time, the Chatsworth organisers are making every effort to get past winners of the British Rally Championship to attend. There has been some suggestion that a special rally could see them competing against each other, but a supply of suitable machines for such an event has so far not been forthcoming. As well as the main rally activity, the asphalt stages of Chatsworth Park will see other entertainments laid on as a kind of dessert for spectators. These will include demonstrations by various high-performance rally machines, as well as a display by the truly amazing Terry Grant. This gentleman has astounded crowds at events like the Race of Champions, with stunts performed with a Legend race car and a Mitsubishi Evo 9 rally car. The kind of thing which Terry does is to get the car doing a succession of 360-degree donuts, then get out and climb onto the roof - or even step away from the car altogether. If you have not seen him in action, do not miss his daily shows at Chatsworth. Add to all this an access-all-areas policy, which sees the paying public mixing directly with the cars, their drivers and with the stars of rallying past and present, and one can understand why being at Chatsworth is a unforgettable experience.

cast iron Posted February 22, 2008 Author Posted February 22, 2008 I didnt post the ticket prices in case it was deemed to much of a commercial posting Quote
a4gom Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 well its still there mark so the commercial posting police don't think so, I think the fact that you don't own the company or are not making profit from it (unless you are) gets you off.? I suppose I could have just done this Quote
