Due to Covid we are having to postpone this event to Sunday 21st November and all drivers currently booked in will get a full refund of their entry fee.
We are planning on holding monthly CCV competitions throughout the year, when we can and details of these events will be advised shortly. However due to the current situation we are expecting the next event will be Easter at Sudbury on 3rd / 4th April and will be for Tyro / RTV and CCV – more details to follow shortly.
Another great day of trialing, with 26 drivers and 301 sections driven by club members….in some very slippery conditions. But hey it was good fun!!!!
Many thanks for all those who set out and marshalled – you made it happen! The next event is the Shakedown on the 27th December at Sudbury – details to follow shortly. The next trial is on the 16/17th January……..plus many more throughout 2021.
THIS EVENT IS ON – SO BOOK IN NOW ONLINE BOOKING – Enjoy some post lock down fun!
All members are welcomed to attend to take part as driver or passenger or be a marshal or to spectate, so come along and enjoy a special day of landrovers in action, during the day and at night. A friendly welcome to all….
Site name: Sudbury
Tyro, RTV and CCV all on Saturday 5th December, meeting opens at 10.30 and the competition starts at Midday for the day light section and re starts circa 3.30 – 4pm for the night time driving part and finishes circa 7.30pm
Setting out for the trial is on Saturday 5th December starting at 8.30am, so if you want to come along and help, please arrive early. Guidance to all is provided…
How the event runs – same rules as any trial with a later start time and we will run a number of sections in the daylight and take a short break for refreshment until it gets dark and run a number of sections (with no changes) in the dark which adds a completely different driving dimension
Each vehicle can have two extra driving lights at the front and the top of these must be below the top of the bulk head / bottom of the windscreen. LED lights are okay, but not light bars that use multiple lights, which are deemed not in the spirit of the event. The additional lights can only be switched on when on the start line, so not to blind everyone!
Additional rear facing reversing lights are at the driver’s choice, however these cannot be on when competing on a section, unless taking a shunt.
Location: Approximately half way between Halstead and Sudbury, in a part wooded site. If you haven’t been here before, please ask for directions; see below. We will be using the new car parking area and the entrance will be marked.

Are you able to help us out at trials. Do you have a reasonable mechanical knowledge of Land Rovers and understand the trialling regulations. If the answer is no but you would like to give the role a try, don’t worry, there will be plenty of help and advice to get you going. Just get in touch with Mark and he will let you know what is required. There is no liability with this role as you are purely there to check vehicles are eligible and safety components function (brakes, seat belts etc.) The onus is always on the driver to present the vehicle in a safe and compliant condition.
We may look to get two scrutineers one for Tyro and RTV and one for CCV.
