Lake District Classic & Targa Rallies

25th April 2013

Wigton Motor Club is embracing National Motor Sport Week by offering three free places to crews who have not previously taken part in rallies

Wigton Motor Club is embracing National Motor Sport Week by offering free places to three crews who have not previously taken part in rallies. They can take part in either the classic rally or the targa event for modern two wheel drive cars.

The ‘Lake District Classic Rally’ will be based on the popular venue of the Penrith Truckstop close to Junction 40 of the M6 in Cumbria. Within easy reach from all points of the compass this is easily a one day event for most potential entrants but for those wishing to stay overnight competitive accommodation rates are available. The event will incorporate twenty spacious, open tests involving no reversing or Mensa puzzles.

The route is by preplot map references with directions of approach and departure. Route instructions will be available at signing on and there will be at least an hour available to put it on the maps.

The route will be compact and limited to 70 road miles allowing for results and prize giving to be over by 1800 hours. This event is organised by current competitors who know what clubmen want from rallies. The entry fee is £95 with morning coffee, light lunch and evening meal included and competition licences are not required.

Regulations are available from the Wigton Motor Club at www.wigtonmc.co.uk or from the

The new "Info-Box" layout us designed to clearly display in an "at-a-glance" format all the information you need. So much easier then reading through lots of text or poorly formatted data!

It quickly answers the "What? When? Where?" to help you decide if an event might be of interest to you. The Location and day(s) and date(s) of the event are instantly apparent, as are the main features of the facilities available.

Clicking the event name takes you to the full details for that event, also providing a location map and a route planner, to help you plan your day.

In addition, the new "+Fav" button allows you to add an event to your personal list of "favourites"

To add an event to your "Favourites", just click the "+Fav" button on the info-box or event listing.

Once an item is in your "Favourites" list, a new menu item "Favourites" will appear at the top right of the page.
