Count me in for marshaling. My wife allowance (and budget) for motorsport in November runs out at the Woodbridge Targa thingy...

Mick Bliss Entries

Hi John and Tony
I have entries with payment for Joe and Laura and Jim and Graham transferred from the Halloween 12 car if you could treat them as received. I'll drop them in the post to you tonight Tony.

Cheers

Paul

Mick Bliss entries received

Entries are coming in at a furious pace for the Mick Bliss 12-car. So far

Ellen Tilney/Colin Sutton Golf GTi Beg
Dave Thompson/Jarrod Thompson 106 Rallye Exp
JIm Drake/Graham Robinson Cooper 'S' Nov
Joe Philpott/Laura Swift GTi Beg
Mike Bishop/Dave Armitage Stag Nov
are entered

We are going to have to follow entry rules to be fair to everyone so it is strictly first come, first served with a proper entry form and fee to ensure a place in the 12. We will take a couple of extras in reserve because we are still a month away from the start.
Expect something very similar to the Halloween regarding roads. Paul Brewerton's patch is next door to ours and the sections are fairly long to get you in a rhythm.

If you can't come out and do it, please offer to marshal to John C.

Further updates will follow.

Tony.

Thanks,

Chris Parmenter /Andy Merchant Rover 25 Nov

Thanks guys.

One more entry is guaranteed a run but reserves may also if someone has to drop out. Get your entry in. We won't bank cheques until after the event and unused entries will get their cheques back.

The twelfth crew is

Ed Scott /Ben Scott Peugeot 106 Exp

There is still a chance that someone will drop out and we will keep a reserve list, so don't stop getting an entry in if you would like a run.
Reserves will be taken first come, first served as spaces arise in the 12. We won't bank your entry cheque until after the event and then only if you get to compete.

Thanks to everyone who has entered so far. John will be looking for marshals so please help if you can.
Also, if you want to find out about 12-cars, coming to the start and going out with a marshalling crew is a good way to see what happens and soak up the atmosphere. Please post here if you want to know more.

Well done to Ellen and Colin

Well done to Ellen and Colin on their first overall win. Two cars didn't make it through our TC, the Cooper S with a dynamo failure (time to upgrade, Jim?) and the Ka (didn't see them at the finish either, what happened?)
We meant to make it to the pub before the start but traffic on the A12 was a pain and decided to cut the route and make it straight to our TC, i hope traffic didn't catch any competitor...

John, any chance of getting the whole route or at least the clues for it? the lane where our TC was looked fantastic!

See you all in January... and happy Christmas (though I'm one of the 'bah humbug' kind) :-)

Great night out, thanks to

Great night out, thanks to all the organisers and marshals. Having arrived at the start absolutely shattered from a busy 12hr day at work, we had a cracking drive in the Dolly, missing only one codeboard (on a LWR that we think we missed in the fog!) and a bit of dropped time, mostly lost puzzling over the grid ref typo and driving around a golf course!

It was a challenging but fun drive with a lot of lanes looking like muddy farm tracks due to the previously inclement weather and Darren did an excellent job on the maps.

Shame there is no December one :-)
