We hope you enjoyed this years Oxford MC Carfax Stage Rally at RAF Benson at the weekend. I think as a first attempt we did alright and it was very pleasing to get lots of positive feedback during the day.  It goes without saying that we are very grateful to our sponsors BGMsport and Mark Donaldson Ltd for their support throughout.

The only issue we had was the entry process in the morning, although we got all competitors and over 140 marshals through in just over 2 hours, we have learnt quite a bit and will improve this in the future.

A massive thanks to all the marshal's and Cheltenham MC for manning the faultless timing all day.  

The driving standards throughout the day were impeccable and on the clear down you would have hardly noticed that we had been there. The chicanes were rarely touched and you deserve a big pat on the back for the high standards, well done.

Congratulations to Simon Mauger and Melanie Holmes are their victory.  After a slow start they took the lead on stage 4 overhauling a fast starting Rob Dennis and Lee Harding who took second overall.  Driver of the day Kevin Tappin co-driven by Charles Tappin scored third overall in there very quick 1600 Escort.
