As the 2016 series has not yet finished I'm unable to add the 2017 list and table of events yet, but here are the first 3 month's events that will be used.  This means that you can plan ahead and get entries in where necessary.

January  - 6th, CSMA 12 Car, or 27th, which is the CMC January Jaunt 12 Car. You can claim either of these, but not both, for the Mini-Series.

February - 3rd, CSMA 12 Car, or 26th, which is the CT Warks Winter Wander 12 Car. You can claim either of these, but not both, for the Mini-Series.

March - 12th, Bedford CC 12 Car, or 24th, which is the CMC Tendring Hundred 12 Car. You can claim either of these, but not both, for the Mini-Series.

Expand the events list (in the right-hand panel) for more details of each event and for regs/entries etc.

Well spotted Colin.. a bit of cut/paste error there somehow.  I'll try again.

Two CT crews were out last night in the CMC January Jaunt 12 Car, which was run around the lanes between the Brentwood and Chelmsford areas. Results were:

Mike Banks/Mark Rutter - Spitfire Mk3 - 1st Overall - 0 Fails 9 Minutes

Steve Radley/Colin Wake - Mk1 Saloon - 2nd Overall - 0 Fails 12 Minutes

It was very nice to see a couple of 50year old Triumphs beat all the moderns!

The next event in the mini-series is the Warks Winter Wander 12 Car on the 26th Feb, entries for which have been open for a while and can be downloaded from the bottom of this page: [Sorry, link no longer available]

And also the CMC Tendring Hundred on the 24th Feb, entries for which will be available very soon at [Sorry, link no longer available]

I'm free for this if any navigators are? 🙂

Hi Malcolm -  This event isn't actually a CT rally, but a CSMA (now renamed "Boundless") event.  However, I'm sure they would be delighted to get another person to marshal, so please contact  Bernard Ward, the organiser, directly.   I don't want to publish his phone number and email here in plan sight, but they are on the 3rd page of the Final Instructions that are attached in the post a bit further up above.

Cheers - Mike

Just one CT crew were out last night competing in the CMC Tendring Hundred 12 Car, which was run around the Tendring peninsular and which managed to pack 45-odd miles into a seemingly tiny area.  CT were well represented with no fewer than four members marshalling on the event, and the event itself was very well received by the crews taking part.  Well done Mr Wake! Results were:

Steve Radley/Mark Rutter - Mk1 Saloon - 3rd Overall, 2nd Expert - 2 Fails 15 Minutes

This makes the mini-series table at this point today look like:

Mark Rutter - 31pts
Mike Banks - 16+1M pts
Colin Wake - 15+1Mpts
Michael Helm - 1Mpt
Mike Bishop - 1Mpt

However...  there is also the Warks Winter Wander running tomorrow (Sunday) where points gained in that are allowable too, so you may see Colin Wake substitute his marshalling point from yesterday for another finite point gained tomorrow.  Decisions, decisions...

As mentioned elsewhere, entries are now open for March's events.

The Warks 12 Car results are now available (see the specific thread) and these have been added to the mini-series results table.  Steve Radley/Colin Wake won the "CT Class" within the event and Colin has obviously decided to replace his marshalling point for this month with 16pts for a win. The curren points tally is now:

Mark Rutter - 31pts
Colin Wake - 31pts
Mike Banks - 16+1M pts
Charlie Deards - 13pts
Nigel Abdulha - 12pts
Dale Barker - 12pts
Michael Helm - 1Mpt
Mike Bishop - 1Mpt
Ellis Stokes, Darren Armitage and Phil Stanley still to score.

The CSMA Boundless 12 Car ran on Friday night, but I have no results from that yet, and the Bedford CC event on the 12th March can still be entered - http://www.bedfordcarclub.org.uk/calendar/calendar.htm

A quick update to add Phil Stanley's points from the Warks Wander, which I had unfortunately missed. Sorry Phil!

Colin Wake - 31pts
Mike Banks - 16+1M pts

Charlie Deards - 13pts

Another good result for CT crews competing last night in the CMC March Hare.  Although actually not a mini-series eligible event, I'll report it here for convenience:

CT crew results were:

Mike Banks/Mark Rutter - Spitfire Mk3 - 1st Overall/1st CT - 0 Fails 5 Minutes

Steve Radley/Colin Wake - Mk1 Saloon - 5th Overall/2nd CT - 1 Fail 3 Minutes

The next mini-series events are the CSMA 12 Car on the 31st March, and the CT HCR on the 8th/9th May.

Entries are open now, and these and the Regs are available at https://chelmsfordmc.co.uk/node/5276

If you have any questions, please contact me by PM or email.

Last Sunday's EAMC Regularity Rally was run in excellent weather, with a nice easy pace and even a halfway stop for coffee.  Quite a bit different to what happens on night time 12 Car events...

Of the CT crews, Steve Radley and Colin Wake were 10th O/A, 1st CT, on 360s, with Mike Banks and Mark Rutter coming in 11th O/A (last in fact) and 2nd CT with 367s.  The winning crew had just 57s penalty.

Steve and Colin actually had a very good run, but made one critical error in navigation on one of the intermediate speed change sections and picked up 300 penalties as a result of this one error. You can see that, had they not done this their score would have been 60s putting them in 2nd place overall. Bad luck indeed.

Current standings in the series are:

Mark Rutter and Colin Wake both on - 57pts
Mike Banks - 42+1M pts
Charlie Deards - 27pts
Phil Stanley - 15pts
Ellis Stokes  - 14pts
Dale Barker - 12pts+1M
Nigel Abdulha - 12pts+1M
Michael Helm - 1Mpt
Mike Bishop - 1Mpt
Darren Armitage still to score

The next event is this Sunday's Bedford Car Club's Summer Treasure Hunt.  I know that at least 2 CT crews are competing.

Bedford Car Club's Summer Treasure Hunt ran on 4th June with one CT entrant, Dale Barker and crew.  They were 5th overall and gained 12 points for the mini-series.

The Warks Scatter was cancelled, as reported elsewhere, and there was no event for August anyway, so the next results are for the CT Three Counties Rally that ran on the 24th September.  These are listed elsewhere, and there will no doubt be a report in the next magazine, so I won't add them here.  However, the results have been added into the mini-series table and makes the tally as below:

Colin Wake - 73pts
Mark Rutter - 72pts
Mike Banks - 57+1M pts
Charlie Deards - 40pts
Phil Stanley and Ellis Stokes both on 27pts
Dale Barker - 24pts+2M
Nigel Abdulha - 12pts+2M
Michael Helm - 14+1Mpt
Mike Bishop - 1Mpt
Darren Armitage still to score

The next event is the CT Essex Winter Rally on the 19th November.  Entries are open and are filing up, so be quick if you intend entering.

Two CT crews were out last night on the CMC Halloween 12 Car Rally, and both did well:

Steve Radley/Colin Wake - 1st overall and 1st CT - 1F and 25mins
Mike Banks/Mark Rutter - 2nd overall and 2nd CT - 2F 8 mins.

There was smaller than usual entry list, but CT did themselves proud. It was interesting to note, as someone said last night, that all the modern cars were beaten by a couple of 50 year old cars. In fact the combined age of the 2 crews and their cars is probably somewhere near 300 years old! Blimey.

Anyway, the current mini-series looks like this:

Colin Wake - 89pts
Mark Rutter - 87pts
Mike Banks - 72+1M pts
Charlie Deards - 40pts
Phil Stanley and Ellis Stokes both on 27pts
Dale Barker - 24pts+2M
Nigel Abdulha - 12pts+2M
Michael Helm - 14+1Mpt
Mike Bishop - 1Mpt
Darren Armitage still to score

The next event is the CT Essex Winter Rally on the 19th November, but the entry is full at present, although reserves are being accepted.

After that, the following event is the Bedford Car Club's Santa Special 12 Car in December. See http://www.bedfordcarclub.org.uk/calendar/calendar.htm
