Hi all, great to see the entrees coming in for this years HCR next month. Most entries are already two person teams but just a reminder to add your second (or third or fourth) crew members to your entry so we have got all the details and entry numbers. Many thanks. Chris

I've sent an email out to all the lead drivers this evening to gather in food choices. If you can all read it and get back to me asap that would be appreciated. Chris

Very true. It should be challenging but you can decide how challenged you want to be, ultimately it should be fun.

Thanks.

Given all entrants will be in their Triumphs on Drive It Day, perhaps you could support this great idea. The Federation of British Historic Vehicle Clubs introduced Drive It Day in 2005 as an opportunity for drivers of classics to celebrate the 1000 Mile Trial run in 1900 to prove the viability of the newly created motor vehicle. DID has now become a high profile annual event, giving us an ideal opportunity to raise awareness and support for historic vehicles amongst the general public. In 2021 the Federation chose to raise funds for the NSPCC's Childline charity as an integral part of DID activities. This association continues, with Childline having become the Federation's official charity partner. Over £87K has been raised for Childline so far from the past two years' DID activities. Club Triumph has of course a proud record of having supported many worthy charities since 1990 through the Round Britain Reliability Run. Please consider purchasing a plaque from the NSPCC (see attached) to display on your car throughout the HCR. These are available for £10 (Regular) or £30 (Platinum) and all proceeds go to Childline. The link is www.driveitday.co.uk/shop Thank you in anticipation for your support of our Federation's chosen charity.

Call the Police

Very soon!

Car is serviced (thanks Dale) and as ready as we're going to be....Call the Police, entry 86.

I have an entry on the list but it's stuck at in_payment and has been for 30 minutes. I've rung my bank, they can see the money being requested and approved all ok so I'd like to know if there is a problem. Not sure if to try again or what to do???

I’ve just tried the new site and my logon doesn’t work, not feeling very confident at this stage.

What is the correct battery for this model? I've been informed it is a "72" but having bought one it appears way too big to fit the bracket that goes over the battery although who knows if that was the right bracket?

Our car (2500TC) arrived home today after a bit of chasing of Hagerty. Unfortunately it appears the brakes have been crippled in the process and some bodywaork damage has appeared  that wasn't there when we left it. At least its home!

Sorry Martin, ours was the last car on it (apparently it had been sharing the trailer with a Jag and a Citroen). Thanks for the clues.
