Boxing Day Autotest 2009 Results
BOXING DAY AUTOTEST REPORT AND FINAL RESULTS
After the ice covered extra long fast flowing tests on the part snow & ice covered surfaces the results (including actual test times) were as listed below this short report.
The challenging tests had to be cleared and gritted from early morning, this long task was carried out by the organizers under the careful direction of the landowner Mr Tom Whittaker.
There was grave concern regarding the cars hitting Tom’s barn/historic car port.
Mr Dave Hemingway (Repo Masarella) came up with a great plan, he removed one of Tom’s historic vehicles from the car port area and used it on the event!
Trackrod Motorclub Chairman/Club Steward/Chief Negotiator Mr Rod Parkin was fortunately on hand to talk and calm down the landowner.
Somehow instead of shortening the mileage due to the poor conditions and landowners precious obstacles it was suddenly agreed to double the mileage and the size of the tests!
Some tests were over 2 minuets long which was around the time taken to complete some stages on recent local Single Venue Rallies.
Nothing but massive grins greeted us as we clicked the stopwatches and quickly issued the test times on the respective stop lines.
Our traditional post event gathering and awards presentation commenced just after 12 noon in the Punch Clock Tavern.
Trackrod Motorclub managed yet again to keep the entry fee down to just a straight £5 (Probably the best value event on the world motorsport calendar)
This is all made possible thanks to vital support from Morley Waste Traders, Bootham Engineers, Trackrod and Wakefield Motor Clubs.
