Some words from the 2022 event directors – Phil & Karen Heys

The 2022 C & D NEWNHAM charity trial took place on 25/26 June.
This year it was opened up to CCV vehicles as well as RTV vehicles.
11 teams of three drivers took part in the two 20 section trials.
Newnham estate allowed us to use both some new land, and some areas that have not been used for this event for many years. We had a mixed bag of weather over the weekend, with a fair bit of rain during the night, making the sections quite challenging.
Together with the help from our sponsors, and our fund raising activities in the evening, and kind donations/raffle prizes from over 24 sponsors we raised over £3500 over the course of the weekend. This together with the money we raised during a charity comp earlier in the year allowed us to donate £4020 to st Luke’s hospice, Turnchapel, Plymouth

The winning CCV team was Jacob Jepps, Joe Garne, and Paul Garne, with a combined score of 125 points The lowest scoring CCV driver for the Weekend being Mike Woodgate finishing on 26 points.

The winning RTV team was George Lewendon, Alex Moore, and Simon Wheeler, with a combined score of 131 points.The lowest scoring RTV driver for the weekend being David White on 15 points.

The spirit of the event was presented to Kim Dobinson for being an excellent Master of Ceremonies on Saturday night and helping raise lots of money for the charity.

Event programme – Charity RTV CCV Programme

This will as normal, be held at Newnham Park , by kind permission of David & Helen Cobbold. In line with the 40th anniversary of St Luke’s Hospice in Plymouth, the theme this year will be “ back to the 80’s”

The intention this year is to camp in the upper field (the one we have used in the past for National events), which has much more room and will be closer to the competitive sections. We have been able to secure some new areas of land within the estate, and return to some areas we have not trialled in for at least 6 years, so we hope this will freshen things up a little. This year we will not be using the “Windwhistle “ site so once you are on the estate there will be no need for you to drive on public roads to access any sections.

We have also removed the restriction that only allowed one modified vehicle per RTV team. We will allow any RTV vehicle in class 1-9 ( and Q class) to enter and be eligible to win the trophy.

The event will be a team event ( team of three) combined lowest score of the three drivers for both days will win the RTV event. The event will consist of 20 sections, 12 on Sat, 8 on Sunday, it will be run in accordance with ALRC competition regulations, and the supplementary regs attached to the entry form.

We will also be running a separate event for CCV vehicles, same format, team of three. The CCV sections will in some cases be the same or similar to the RTV sections, some with different gates on the way though and some sections with a different finish. There will be separate trophies for the CCV and the RTV.

It will not be possible to mix RTV and CCV vehicles within the same team

We are delighted to have “ four elements catering” providing food and drink at this years  RTV event, (see attached menu and drinks menu) they will also be providing a licensed bar on the Friday & Saturday evening.
