The cars running in this Vid are all Coming to Merritt, at the end of the month. and On Oct 1st. Will be performing in the Hills around Merritt, just as exciting as in this Vid.
You can come and watch or come and VOLUNTEER,
I am sure you will find it exciting.

Cool.... takes be back to standing in the rain at Wooleton Park watching Gp B supercars howl past during the RAC rallies in the 80's.

Hello All,
Just thought i would post a Little "radio chatter" from the Rally last Saturday.I was doing a Marshall/Road closure Radio, on Mab Lake Road. and Our Rover Lander "Stuart Longair, was doing same on Nicola North . along the lake, and He came on the frequency to ask the quickest route to take to get to his next Position as Marshall/ Road closure Radio Over on Helmer Rd. Stuart asked the Rally Marshall for directions. Rally M. says well you could continue Coarse direction but you might have clearance issues as the road gets very rough in Places... [About this time I am almost falling out of the OUTBACK .Laughing so hard.] !!! Rally master has no idea Stuart Is sitting in a Full Expedition ready 110 Defender!!. . So Rally Master sends him down into Merritt and up the easy road to Helmer. We had some great racing. Pat Richard from Rocket Racing in Squamish won the event. and Antoine LeStage and Natalie Richard from back east Won the Canadian Championships. cheers. Rick .m ve7axq..
