The Riponian Stages Rally 2005 - Sunday 6th February continued By Matt Rudd

prev page,

Natalie Barratt was at the event this year, once again competing in the World Rally Championship. She did have a brilliant performance in the Impreza but only finished 9th. Just behind Nat was Brandesburton's Keith Turner. The event was won by Steven Petch who had an overall time of 49.13. Second was Gavin Read with a time of 51.26 and rounding off the top 3 was Butterwicks John Bannister. The top 3 all had Subaru Imprezas.

And in the Kall Kwik Rally the top 3 were James Metcalf (Mk2 Escort), Jon Finch in his BMW and Alan Sooty Richardson in his Nova.

During the event there were many retirements. Just to name a few - Dave Hemingway was excluded, Ryan Champion had mechanical problems but the worst retirement was Steve Petch (father of the winner) and John Richardson. They left the road and hit a tree. John had to be is hospital overnight but he is making a good recovery. The event was organized by the Delacy Motor Club www.kallkwikrally.co.uk
