Fancy a place on your clubs committee?

It’s that time of year where the committee gets re elected, if you fancy a place on the committee please let me know so you can be considered!

 

Clarity on Seatbelts.

There were a few people running without seatbelts to their cars at the back end of last year, for clarity All drivers are to wear at minimum a 3 point belt unless they are driving in a standard class a vehicle that came from factory without a belt – this is the only exception to this rule.

Many thanks and hope to see you all at round 1!
