Comp Safari Timing Unit.

A Timing Unit training evening is being held on Tuesday 8th July at the BT Social club in Plymouth starting at 7pm.

If you are interested in helping in the timing unit during comp safari events, or if you would just like to know how it all works please come to the evening where we will be holding training and demonstrations of the equipment. 

Please contact Trish White, Julia Cuming or Emma Pascoe if you are interested in coming or if you would like more information about the evening or the timing unit.

To enable events to run it is essential that there are volunteers who are willing to give up their time to help, the events could simply not function without them.

Letter received from the ALRC dated 19th June 2014!

Use of Seat Belts in CCVTs

Following the accident that occurred at a club event in May the ALRC Council are waiting for the coroners recommendations and MSA comments to be published before considering if any change is necessary to the ALRC Competition Regulations.

In the interim, for CCVT events we recommend the use of a full harness but should members choose to wear a lap belt, regardless of the style of belt fitted all competitors must be made aware that belts should be securely fastened and adjusted tightly.

Also as a precautionary measure all club scrutineers are asked to check the height of drivers when sitting in their seat to ensure that their head is away from the roll cage.
