Who did you ask? I am a member of one of the organsing groups and we have always been told that all exhibits are welcome. I will have a word with the rally secretary if you want and find out whats going on.

Sorry for the delay in replying.

The rally secretary (our club chairman) borught the matter up at the last comittee meeting. The are sticking with the no steam approach (which I think is ridiculous). When asked why the Huber was allowed last year, he was told that its because it was a 2 man tractor.

I apologise for geting your hopes up, and hope that you enjoy the rally despite not been allowed to take your engine.

Regards
Mike
