Class C - running to the Slot Rally UK 2020 rules - has 25 entries. I'll introduce them in two groups...

   

C1 Clive Mills - SCX Alpine A110 #60. Clive has chosen Pat Moss' fabulous Monte Carlo Alpine for Class C.

   

C2 Leo Capaldi - SRC Lancia Delta S4 #7. Leo means business with SRC's sensational new Lancia. I can't wait to drive it!

   

C3 Phil Barry - SRC Porsche 914/6 #53. Phil won the 'Classic' class with this car at the Wye Valley Winter Stages before Christmas. This has to be one of the favourites for overall victory.

   

C4 Simon Coombes - SCX BMW M1 #3. Simon is hosting stages 2 & 3 in Goring next week. His BMW M1 is a typically tasty entry for the WHO veteran.

   

C5 Duncan Skelt - SCX Ford RS200 #14. WHO racer Duncan was going to be helping out with Simon's stages... until lockdown intervened. At least he gets to take part - from a distance - with this classic SCX RS200.

   

C6 Paul Cooper - SCX Lancia Delta Integrale #1. Paul's SCX Delta is a lovely-looking car and should be great fun to drive.

   

C7 Graham Edwards - NSR Renault Clio #3. Graham has sent us a monster of an NSR Clio! It might be a handful on the shorter stages, but will really stretch its legs at Jean's in the penultimate week.

   

C8 Gill Child - Scalextric Ford Escort RS Cosworth #4. Gill is making her slot rally debut with this wolf - JS chassis and Slot.it Flat6 - in sheep's clothing.

   

C9 Ade Child - Scaleauto Ford RS200 #3. Ade is a new-ish member at Viking Slot Car Club and has fitted an NSR motor in his super-looking RS200.

   

C10 Alan Wilkinson - Ninco Renault Mégane #4. Alan (aka nonfractal) is missing his racing at Nascot Wood. Hopefully the proxy race will be a good distraction. His Ninco Mégane has a Slot.it HSR chassis and he's obviously enjoyed getting it ready for some rally-sprint action. One to watch? We'll see after stage 1 tomorrow...

   


C11 Kevin Veitch - PowerSlot Nissan 350Z #19. Kev (aka Oxo Cube) has sent this beaut down from Burnley. The hosts (& helpers) will be voting on "best in show" during the event... and I think the Nissan will be in the mix. I suspect it'll go well on track too.

   

C12 Alan Birchmore - Ninco Citroën C4 #2. Alan was top Ninco with this C4 in the recent Wye Valley Winter Stages, finishing third in the 'Modern' class. He's up against a gaggle of Ninco WRCs here as well, but should in contention for the overall podium at the end of the eleven stages.

   

C13 Andy Player - Ninco Subaru Impreza #5. This Subaru took a shock fourth in the 'Modern' class at Wye Valley last year. I had to give it another run, didn't I?
