Looking forward to it - just hope the weather is an improvement over last years, which is why I didn't make it!

This is a worthwhile question. I attended a ralley that stated 60 engines, and greater than 50% (32 of 60) were minatures. This was very dissappointing. Nothing wrong with the small ones, and I admire the engineering skills that goes into making them, just that I was expecting 60 full size jobs.

Hi,
We'll be there with our Sentinel and Fowler K5. Duncombe park is always a great rally, a lovely spacious field and a brilliant setting. A good variety of exhibits and an all round good small rally.
