Tom Niven – (Board Member).  Tom has been a club member for many years and enters many of the events throughout the year, often in his MGTF. Tom brings a wealth of business and local knowledge to the committee. His long motorsporting past should be of great help in organising entertaining and exciting events. 

George Shand – (Board Member).  George joined the committee at the 2016  AGM and has long been interested in classic motoring, having taken part in many CCHMSC and other club events. George brings experience of organising events, which he did as a member in 2015 for the club. He is also a dab hand at restoring and fettling the older cars that we all enjoy.

Ralph Forbes – (Board Member & Treasurer).  Ralph also joined the committee at the 2013  AGM, but has been involved with the committee during the monte 2013 organisation. With a wealth of competition behind him, having done more Monte Historiques than some of us have had hot dinners, Ralph knows a good rally car when he see's one, and how to prepare them for tough rallies. Small cars seem to be his favourite for dashing up snow covered alps, with Fiat and Lancia being a particular favourite.  Tapping into this knowledge can only help the club when it comes to organising something a bit more ambitious.  

John Stuart - (Board Member). John has a long history in rallying, with stage events being his favourite type."If your not going flat out, your not trying hard enough" is one of his favourite calls. As well as the Scottish, and many events across the UK, John has often taken to the roads of Spain for the Rally Costa Brava. Initially in his Austin A40, he moved up to an Autobianchi, though the A40 always got a smile if only that you never see one rallying in Spain. John brings a lot of good ideas to the committee from his wealth of rallying experiences.   

Jim Watson (Board Member). Jim has been a long time member of the club and taken part in many of the events in a variety of classic cars. He is often  seen with his wife Norma, who was also a Club Director, in their Riley Elf and MGB Roadster on tours and rallies. Both enjoy designing and organising tours, rallies and other events.
