Club Triumph

Website issue

Apologies to all users for a website issue which was preventing new content from being posted on the site over the weekend. Our response was delayed by covid issues at our supplier. Thanks for your patience and thanks to those who reported the issue.

MSUK have recently updated their policy on restarting motorsport and issued lengthy instructions. In relation to Touring Assemblies they say:

“Where events will require more than 1 person in the vehicle it will not be possible whilst social distancing requirements are in place. Therefore, it will not be possible for Treasure Hunts or Touring Assemblies to take place initially.”

Further Professor Chris Whitty is on record as not expecting social distancing regulations to be relaxed this year.

This means that MSUK will not issue a permit for the event this year.  Therefore, the Club deeply regrets that it has to cancel The Coast to Coast Run 2020. Entry fees and merchandising payments will be refunded during June

The Competitions Committee still hopes to stage some events this year and is continuing to look for opportunities to arrange events that comply with the future regulatory changes and satisfy safety and legal restrictions.  If any are possible they will be announced on the website, so please keep checking it over regularly.

Despite the disappointment of cancelled events this year we are putting our heads together right now to make 2021 the best year we possibly can for Club events

Featuring the TR6 our latest magazine is now online with full access for members.

Friday evening would have marked for many the start of our annual pilgrimage to the National Weekend.

This year we would have again been hosting with our neighbouring petrol heads in the TR Drivers Club.

In these unprecedented times we all have to find a new normal, so we (that’s The TR Drivers Club & Club Triumph) are inviting you to The Harris Arms (to be set up as a Zoom Call) on Friday evening 8pm til late.

Pop in for an informal chat, a short pub quiz (which will start at 8:30pm) & a bit of banter, bring your own beer or wine & we’ll see you online.

Please private message Ellis Stokes to be added to the guest list (and receive the joining instructions).

We may have to limit the amount of people in the bar, so don't hang about with the message! 

See you on Friday!

Just a reminder that all Motorsport UK permitted events remain suspended until at least June 30th 2020, including those organised by our Club.

The Club is again running Table Top Rally for 2020.

In light of the fact that Motorsport UK has suspended all permits and CoEs until at least 30^th June due to the current Covid-19 virus situation, we wondered if all you grounded expert class rallyists might be getting restless. If so you might like to take advantage of the new Expert Class which we are introducing to the Table Top Rally 2020 Challenge. We will be extending the original deadline for the submission of Sections 1 & 2 to April 28^th for all entrants to allow this. 

There is no entry fee, all you require is OS map 152 from the Landranger series and a romer to plot the map references.  We have used the latest version of the map, which has a windmill on the cover, and cannot guarantee that older versions will work correctly.  RRP is £8.99 but website www.dash4it.co.uk are currently selling at £6.29 with free delivery.

Happy Table Top Rallying!

The event team have been continually monitoring the latest public health and government guidelines regarding the evolving COVID-19 situation and acting in accordance with their advice.
 
The safety and wellbeing of our visitors, exhibitors, partners, contractors and staff is the most important factor and therefore the only action for all involved is to postpone.
