Really enjoyed this years RBRR, previously have only done the 2016. During that one we didn’t use sat nav, worried too much about a wheel bearing noise in Scotland. We had two drivers and through inexperience of such a drive we struggled during the Welsh parts and played catch up thereafter. This event though in a pi was excellent, it’s what the car was made for. The route was spot on, no complaints about any of the control stops (although having worked at Logan Morrison’s garage a few years ago, I miss that one.) I spoke with Jim and he mentioned that Gartcosh next time could be the new pie stop! That would work there with no problem. Plenty of room.
One thing though, would it be possible to perhaps allow some of the further afield participants to use a Zoom type meeting for the drivers briefing? I know we did not have to attend at Gaydon but felt we should. It’s a long drive for essentially a couple of hours.
Event itself? Brilliant! Organisers get full marks again!

After looking through the receipts and working it out it looks as though the pi returned 31.6 mpg. I know a lot of the run was cruising as the weather in places dictated that high speed stuff was out. I have never actually had reason before now to work out the fuel consumption but I guess this is ok?
