Next Event - ??

We are: Philip (Driver) & George Jennings (Co-driver)

We compete on sealed surface events chiefly in the North West of England.

Our car pictured above is a Talbot Sunbeam. This car started life as a standard 1600cc S model but has now been developed with a Skip Brown competition engine producing 123 BHP. The suspension is uprated all round and is fitted with an LSD with a 4.4:1 CWP is used to get the power down through a SCCR Quaife Competition Gearbox. Stopping Power comes from Capri 2.8 drilled, grooved & vented discs

The car is run on a small budget with no sponsorship at present. All the preparation work is done by ourselves with lots of help from friends & family.

We started competing in 2000. Since then we have done numerous events including The North West Stages rally 6 times in a row, Three Sisters cart track, Ty Croes race circuit on Anglesey, Aintree race circuit plus various airfield & army camp venues dotted around the North West of England. The current car started competing in September 2006 and has done several events up to the present day

Update 10-10-2010 - Quiet times after our ups and downs

Through the summer we decided to compete on our own club event, the JRT Enville Stages Rally at Anglesey Race Circuit. Unfortunately disaster struck when the LSD casing broke at the crownwheel end distroying everything in the process at the end of Stage 1. We are now without a 4.4 diff so for the cars 5th Anniversary we headed back to the Promenade Stages with the spare 3.9 LSD axle. We had a good run in the extreme conditions on the new layout and came away with a 5th in class.

The BMW Compact is now taking shape, internal lines are in the car after the rollcage was fitted. uprated brakes now fitted from a 328 coupe.

Update 26-05-2010 - Steady she Goes

Not much time for an update recently but we have completed the SMC stages & the Adgespeed Stages Rallies during March to May and had good results with 4th in class on both events. The car needs some fettling now before our possible outing on  our clubs event, the Enville Stages in June.

Update 18-03-2010 - Crash Bang Wallop!

After the awards celebrations for Phil & George Winning the Drivers and runner up co-drivers championship at Warrington Motor Club we started our 2010 campaign with the north West Stages. This year was very tough on the car and crew. Despite many problems they managed to get home 40th overall and 8th in class. A full report is now on the 'Reports' page.

Update 29-01-2009  -  WARRINGTON MOTOR CLUB CHAMPIONS 2008

After a really exiting year Phil & George Jennings steered the Talbot Sunbeam to the overall championship title for both drivers & co-drivers. After winning the 1600cc class awards previously we have gone one better with some good consistent results which included 4th in class on the 2008 Promenade stages at New Brighton & 4th in class on the Roskirk Stages at Three Sisters
