Clubmans Round 8 - Hughes Rally

David Taylor has secured the 2011 Navigator's title by winning the Hughes Rally in John Ruddock's Escort, while Howard Warren and Guy Woodcock retired early in the day following an engine fire in the Porsche.  The 2011 Driver's title will go down to the wire on the final round, the Throckmorton Challenge, with Howard Warren just needing to finish within 8 places of current leader John Ruddock to win the Championship. We must not forget the reigning champion Martin Neal who still has a mathematical chance if he can take 1st or 2nd place while both Warren and Ruddock have a bad day.

Clubmans Round 7 - Vale of Clwyd Classic

Winners of the first Vale of Clwyd Classic rally were Roger and Leigh Powley, their Porsche 911 snatching the lead from the similar car of Howard Warren and Iain Tullie on the final regularity section. Several of the top crews were caught out by the last piece of navigation and failed to find one of the intermediate time controls, with a subsequent 5 minute penalty. 

Championship contenders Mike and Matthew Vokes unfortuately retired their Imp early in the day after damaging the exhaust, while John Ruddock/David Taylor clipped a kerb on a test just after lunch and retired the Escort with a damaged axle. 

1. Roger Powley/Leigh Powley (Porsche 911) 19:35
2. Howard Warren/Iain Tullie (Porsche 911) 22:10
3. David Mustarde/Peter Blackett (Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV) 22:35
