Centrally located at the Dolphin PH on the A120 Nr Braintree, I am hoping the event will attract a good number of crews and Marshals alike.
Members that would like to help on the night manning Time Controls or other official duties, please let me know via my contact details on the "Regs".

i notice that the top four girl navigators in the winter series are not entered in the next 12 car next friday. i had my entry in but had to remove it because i could not find a navigator. would zoe, beth, suze or emily like a run.
Final instructions are here:

Very late entry for Zoe and me, sorry! But we had a last minuet change that has allowed us to come and play! Yay!
Sorry Pat, I missed your post. I am off tomorrow and due to be on "school pick up duty" for my niece. Now not needed, but made other plans for tomorrow evening. Thanks anyway!
Thats a shame Suze. We could have had a full entry.

Well done Graham and helpers for a fantastic evening.
I really enjoyed the route and the car went well. Lucy, as usual, faultless on the maps.
Frustrated that we missed that code board. We had a member of the public doing about 5mph in front of us and we missed it! A shame as that cost us the win...
Well done to Rich and Mike, a superb result including a good deed, and it's great to see them out again.
Luis
Hi all,
Many thanks to all the crews and marshals for another great evening of Chelmsford MC motorsport. A great performance by all drivers and navigators to get round dropping so little time and only a few “Fails” across the whole field. Even an act of Sportsmanship to help a crew in trouble.
Results will be posted here shortly.
Graham
Results and now on the 12 car page:

Yet more thanks from Crow and me for the excellent route, navigation, marshalling and especially the fish and chips at the start. Our performance (once again) was not faultless - as Crow remarked " we stuttered in Stisted ", but nevertheless we enjoyed ourselves and will try to do better on the April Fool ( ? , ! ) . Here's to Wethersfield next weekend ...
George
A quick study of the results shows a lot of "would have could have should have" performances - the Masters George & Crow missing the first Code Board and therefore could have been Clean , and Luis & Lucy missing the last code board , but Luis you cant claim to have won if you'd spotted the board, as Ben & Steve would have won unless they han't dropped 3m at TC4 etc etc . .so well done Rich Baker & Mike Thomas on the victory. Mike wasn't feeeling too well in the left hand seat ( he doesn't take pills ) and doesn't want to as he'd rather not navigate, but with a result like that he'll be in demand.
Hi,
That was as good a 12-car as you'll get. Beautifully pitched nav and lanes. Great marshals, as ever. It was a pleasure to do. Many many thanks Robinsons for all the hard work and typical attention to detail.
It was great to be back and shake out the personal rust. John and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Tony.
Thanks Graham and the team - a super route on some of the roads around where I grew up, so a trip down memory lane for me. The car's new engine held together okay and got us round fine, which was good news. Great roads, great organisation, great marshals. Many thanks.
