As Clerk of the Course may I extend a big thank to all the people that helped to organise and deliver a very successful event at Wattisham yesterday
Firstly to Tony Michael for doing the regulations, secretarial work, diagrams, entries , and with the help of Kelly unbelievably slick results.
Next to Richard & Sue Bonner as Chief Marshals - who have already sent a lovely thank you to all the marshals. My extra thanks go to the Test Commanders Dave Thompson & Amy, John Davie & Chris and Adrian Wardman & Dick on the mega South HAS test.
Alistair Brown Assistant C of C, with change rounds, course opening & paddock organisation
To Dave Judd the Safety Manual & Radio Control .
Ryan Sales the Event Safety Officer, writing our RA & assisting changerounds & course opening.
Paul Barrett for doing the roadbook & marshals printing, MTC's , course closing & processing marshal check sheets for penalties - a surprising number of cone hits, but for me , a satisfyingly low number of Wrong Tests.
Brian Hemmings the Venue Contract arrangement for AMSC, MSUK Insurance & Event Safety Officer
Gary Maddocks & Geoff Lobb Equipment Collation & Delivery and set up & clear up.
Paul Brewerton the Event Steward. Ben & Karen Scott Recovery, John Horton Paramedic, Simon Dockray & Team scrutineering, Dave Barnes & Tony Campen noise
The otherwise not yet acknowledged Chris Slack that was part of the Saturday set up team with Geoff, Gary , Dave , Camps, Richard, Ade, Ali & myself. We need some younger helpers - the average age of our set up team was almost 69!
Finally my thanks to Martin Kinsey the Wattisham Flying Station Staff & Executive Officer and Major Mark Saunders of British Army Motorsport for helping Martin clear most of the vehicles from our test routes and tolerating our spreading of oil in a few places.
