  • new member gets rosette.

    wow!!!!! what a weekend. took my '89 maestro 1.3L clubman to my first rally yesterday,organised by east yorkshire thoroughbred C.C. i bought it at the end of march and joined the owners club. 56 miles from then until yesterday.those miles were getting it M.O.Ted fixing the radio and the roof lining. the run was 30 miles from hull to bridlington. in the boot was a tow rope, bottle of water and some oil. no need for any of them. 550 vehicles one behind the other. buses, trucks,motor cycles and scooters. 4 classes of cars. in my class there were about 80 cars, maybe about 400 cars in total. there was only ONE MAESTRO
    in the whole show. mine and i received a third in class. i was beaten by a fantastic 4 liter daimler. and a 2.8 complete rebuild capri. So i don't think i let the side down.was i chuffed.

          I hope that i'll have something that can come along next year to join in. I didn't know it was on but will certainly look out for it now.
