Roger Albert Clark Rally 2023

Due to unforseen circumstances now wont be making the trip to Keilder but looking like a proper challenge if the weather continues on its current trajectory.

Have fun and stay warm anyone heading out!
 
Tracker shows Perez in the Stratos stopped at the start of SS3. Hope it's not serious.

Edit - has moved and now on the infield at Pembrey... dont know if he's done the stage or not.

Perez got through. Higgins seemed slow on SS5 though.

⚠️ NEWS coming out of the Stages

Mark Higgins and Carl Williamson in the big Triumph TR7 V8 are stopped stage side....

The British sports car sounded sick in the penultimate stage of day. The crew are trying to fit a new alternator and belt and make it to the end of the day...

And they did it !
 
Gutted to hear Perez is off on SS7. :(

Hollie Mac did say she wanted to experience at least a fraction of what her did. She certainly has, rolled on the second stage this morning. If in doubt flat out��

SS14 was dramatic with loads of the Mini Challenge runners going off and even the experienced guys saying the icy conditions were crazy. Plus Osian Pryce lost the overall lead to Paul Barrett !
 
:( :( :(

Shame to lose so much mileage however like RACs of old you have to expect anything can happen weatherwise at this time of year and you cant rely on global warming! I'm trusting those 4 stages are now totally lost and wont be run on Sunday?
 
Osian Pryce re-took the lead on the last two stages that ran on Saturday. Without the snowy conditions of SS14 he has been fastest on the event, so with milder weather coming he could get his first RAC win.
 
Been waiting all afternoon for the times for the top guys after SS22...

Finally they just posted this -

Here's the 1-2-3 at the end of the first loop of stages on Sunday:

1. Osian Pryce
2. Paul Barrett
3. Marty McCormack
 
Sad to hear Marty McCormack is out on the final day with a broken gearbox on the M3. :(

But at least Higgins in the TR7 is still going after not seeing times for him yesterday afternoon. :)
 
Indeed a shame the Bimmer is out as they went a lot better than many people probably suspected they would. Will be interesting to see if any more M3s appear in the BHRC next year.
 
I'm a bit confused as to how car 173 was 46 seconds faster than everyone else on SS28.

Looks about 2 minutes too quick to me.
 
From what I read there was a last minute change of results team due to illness which may have had something to do with the somewhat strange and often missing times..
