Cornwall & Devon Land Rover Club. The Club Mag spring 2014 | Page 21
The Monday saw a wetter day than had been seen on the other two days, which
lead to a slippery comp course. The club’s normal speed freaks would all be out
to play with several hoping to challenge for overall and class wins. Lee Newcombe in Class 3, had been setting times almost two minutes quicker than the
other competitor in his class, until his land rover decided enough was enough and
stopped working. In class 8, Jordan Shirley would take 3rd in class and 7th overall,
and Chris Cumings would finish 5th overall and 3rd in class 9.
Charity RTV – the 22nd & 23rd of June saw
the Annual C&D Charity event held at Newnham Park and Hemerdon, once again sponsored by Brookwell Supplies. It also saw the
biggest turn out since the event started with 24
teams from all over the country entered. The
National’s winning team would again come out
on top in the two day event with Dave White,
Simon Badge & Ross Lillicrap finishing on a
combined score of 77 points. Cornwall and
Devon members would clean up with our teams winning both the LWB class and
the Ladies Trophy. Steve Johnson, David Bruley & Neil Jackson took the LWB
Class win finishing on 155 points and taking 5th overall. Emma White who drove
Tony Powell’s 90, Leigh Jackson who is still in here first year of RTV driving and
Jess Jeffery driving her husband’s SWB Special took the Ladies Trophy with 206
points and taking 18th overall. Fail of the weekend has to go to Chris Smith from
the “Getting Dirty at 30” C&D team, who after competing with Will Francis & Chris
Cuming, went out that night in Plymouth to celebrate a birthday and ended up having a few
to many and had to pull out of competing on
the Sunday.
