Another mishap for Peter Baylis
Peter Baylis and Anthony Blyth had a good finish on the Tempest Stages
clubman event, finishing a creditable 8th overall and 8th in class. This
was achieved even with the damage you see below and a wrong route at a
split leading to a stage maximum time.
The event was a run through of a number of the usual Stages, however, at
Longmoor a couple of the old stages were joined to make a single long one,
with gravel separated by a small tarmac section. Unfortunately it was in the
tarmac section and running on gravel tyres that caused the team to career
off in to an electrical power sub-station. Luckily there is only superficial
damage and they hope to be ready for February and the start of the
season. (The guys would like to thank Russ Burton who kindly lent his
sandwich back as a temporary headlight lens!)
