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
