Rally School Perth - Sunday 3 January
Twenty hardy drivers and navigators fought through
challenging winter driving conditions to a snowy Perth to take part in the 2nd
Annual New Year Rally School. Among the ‘weel kent faces’ who squeezed into the
meeting room at the Isle of Skye Hotel, were some newcomers to Classic Rallying,
all keen to figure out the mysteries of rally navigation. Club committee member
and presenter Maurice Millar was nursing a chest infection and lost his voice,
so at short notice Jim Reid and Ian Rae of the 55 Car club stepped in delivering
a first class course on the basics of navigational rallying drawing on their
vast experiences. |

La Crofterra Pandemonia - 26 & 27 September
For the second year running,
Jim Paterson and
Douglas Anderson headed north to Inverness to join
Highland Car clubs
5th Anniversary La Crofterra Pandemonia. Revisiting the first 2005 event, the
tour took the fifty entries over traffic free highland roads to Kyle of Lochalsh
and across the bridge to Skye. In keeping with its reputation, Skye managed a
good supply of the wet stuff as we toured round the island before taking the
boat over the sea, not to Skye, but back to the mainland, and back to Inverness.
