Endurance Road Rally Championship 2009

Welsh Endurance Road Rally - 8th & 9th August 2009
 
A month ago we sent an email to over 200 past competitors saying that the Regulations and Entry Forms for our 2009 rally were available. Normally in the first few weeks we would receive about one third of our eventual entries, but to date we've received just FIVE entries - and three of those crews were not on our mailing list. Where are all our past competitors?
 
The Welsh Endurance Road Rally is the next round of the Endurance Rally Championship, but not one single registered contender has entered yet.
 
We do appreciate that in the current financial crisis entries will be down on last year, but soon we must start committing Club money and we must know that the rally is financially viable.
 
The organisation is proceeding well and the Roadbook is almost finished. The rally will start on Saturday afternoon with a 9½ mile Selectif, followed immediately by a 13 miler, both in the Walters Motorsport Complex and using many new gravel roads which were constructed in the winter just for rallying. Then comes a brand new 4-mile uphill test in a forest which has not been used for years, and so on. Our traditional 20-mile Selectif in the dark will be included, of course. With well over 100 miles of competitive mileage and short link sections, a 90-mile night navigation leg (NO regularities), with dinner and lunch provided free, and just £5 a night to pitch a tent right outside the Rally HQ, the Welsh Endurance Road Rally offers unequalled value for an entry free of £285. And we guarantee to refund in full all entry fees if the rally is not held.

Please send us your Entry Form ASAP. We will accept a £50 deposit provided the remainder is paid - in instalments if you wish - before the closing date of 31st July. Don't leave sending in your entry until the last minute - there may be no rally to enter.
 
Hoping to receive your entry soon,
