Private Engine Rally this summer

Prepair Ltd · 2004-01-06T11:33:20+00:00

A year or so back I was thinking of holding a small private rally onthe ground we rent for the hosses (3.5 acres) and Martin P reminded meabout this matter in an email this morning.We would like to run a trial this summer, on the following basis ifthat meets requirements:1) Camping and parking space is available and free.2) No habitation for 1 mile or so, therefore no restrictions on enginerunning times etc.3) Open fires subject to conditions, it it's too dry then we may haveto say no because of two big fields of arable stuff either side of us.4) Drinking and engine water will be provided in separate tanks.5) No waste disposal facilities will be available, but we can supplybin bags for collection of rubbish.6) Suggest a Friday start/setup and run through till Sunday to allowthose travelling a bit of time to relax.7) No mains electricity on site, but we can probably provide somethingif nobody brings a genny set along, we have the 3.5kVA JLO set we candrag out and bring along...8) Ditto for site lighting.9) Minimum of driving round the field as it's the horses food we areusing :-))No real regulations other than we would normally have for a rally,it's private so no need for too much formality, but safety mattersmust be observed. Comments welcome, time not set yet, but we will endeavour to fit inwith everyone elses needs. We will be at Portland towards the end ofAugust but otherwise are free for the summer.Location is off the B645, 1 mile East of Chelveston Village. We areadjacent to an MOD site with radio listening gear so no excursions offthe field please, they are pretty strict about people roaming amongstthe Yagis...Kind regards,PeterPeter ForbesPrepair LtdLuton, UKemail: home:
