Failure
by Darren on Sep.29, 2009, under Rally GB
So, those of you who have been reading regularly will know that this year we were actually more prepared than any other time to do Rally GB. But a number of things have happened recently which have been less than ideal, and as a result, we don’t have enough support financially to be able to do Rally GB – entries close tomorrow, and let’s just say we’re a long way off our target to have a chance of being able to enter the event, so it looks like that’s that.
All those who have paid into the sponsorship scheme will, of course, get their money back in full, as promised previously. Aside from the bitter disappointment of not being able to do the event this year, this also leaves me in a position where I’m unsure of what I’ll be doing in the future, if anything at all; I’ve really enjoyed spending a week doing rallying at the highest level once a year, and for various reasons I don’t want to return to doing smaller, local events as my sole rallying. I’ll have to take a long, hard look at what lies in the future, if anything at all.
Thanks for your support over the years, it’s been much appreciated, as has that of those who sponsored us in prospect of doing Rally GB. We know who you are, and we’re grateful.
