First time i have ever done this. Navigating readit in a classic car rally, any one ever done this as i dont know what to expect? In a 1972 MG midget. Cant wait for it.

Hiya Dix.

Haven't navigated for one but have been the driver with my mate navigating... not sure whether it'll be the same format but we just had an A4 sheet with a fair few turn left onto this road, 3rd exit at roundabout etc... we only got lost three times but one of those was following the car in front. Our route had 2 checkpoints you had to get a stamp over an 80 mile route through Bristol, Chedder gorge and Bath.

Have fun, shame its not in the Wedge.

Hello Dom

Aye that sounds about the same format but the Yorkshire dales (heartbeat Area) looking forward to it loads. How is the ol 280 getting on? Its been off the road quite a while now bud.

Yup, its has been a while.

Starting to make a effort now to get it back on the road.. going to do the cosworth engine conversion, just need to firm up what order to do the jobs and get cracking really.
I'm sure I'll post a few questions and pics as I'm going along. Having said that, I think it will be a few more BBWF's away before it makes an appearance.

Thats a shame mate one of the nicest 280's i have seen at the BBWF.

You wil get there in the end though Dominique and will be interesting to see what it goes like with the cosworth engine in it good luck.

Ive always fanced doing a timed road rally, im sure you will have a blast. You will have to keep coun of the corners you have gone through and work out your average speed so you know when you can go quickly and where you may need to loss time.
Nice one
