We're getting close to the cars rolling off the start ramp...

   

Everyone will be encouraged to take pictures of their cars at the start - as with the SCX Renault 5 Turbo (above) that Gaugemaster very kindly donated as a club car for the Ice Rink stage.

These are the four club cars - one will stay on each of the stages, along with a Parma or DS controller...

   

The SCX Seat Ibiza got a very good workout on the Jupp's Farm stage the other night, courtesy of Goring Scouts. It will stay on the off-road layout on Wednesday. The Scalextric Corolla and Mégane - both veterans of the 2021 Winter Rally-Sprint - will be allocated to either Titnore Lane or Ilex & Sea Lane. The Renault 5 will stay on the Ice Rink.

And if you want to buy cars on the night, Darren will be bringing the rally section of his travelling slot car emporium. Expect some good prices for new and used rally models.

The next 48 hours will see all four stages tested and everything packed up and ready to be transported to the Barn. Might take a couple of journeys...
