Here are brief details about the 2009 Rally:

  • Around 100 selectif miles on superb asphalt and forestry tracks – some never rallied before - over a 500 mile route around Devon and Cornwall including two simple, short regularity sections each evening.
  • The 2009 rally will once again feature a mixture of surfaces with selectifs up to 9 miles long – an event for both driver and navigator to really get their teeth into…...  with awards presentation on Sunday morning.
  • Starting at mid-day on Friday at Newton Abbot with an overnight halt and finish in Plymouth the Rally HQ is the Plymouth Novotel – bar opens until 2am both nights so plenty of socialising…..   Mud, sweat and beers!!!!
  • Dunmere was the “big challenge” in 2008 and will be one of the most talked about selectifs in Endurance Rallying EVER (until 2009!!) – come and see for yourself what rallying in the South West of England is all about.

Great event, one of the best – Heal/Harris… Nearly perfect. Excellent selectifs, sensible regularity sections and brilliant Marshals/Organisers – White/Chanter…. Very well organised friendly rally which this year we found harder than last year – Linda & Stuart Cariss… A challenging, long two days with top quality surface variations combined with slick organisation – Brooks/Garton… Excellent value for money, good fun, great tests – Birkhill/Northmore… The best multi-day event on the calendar – Horsfall/Horsfall (we will be back, I must get one of those pixies!)A rollercoaster of events and emotions – Warmisham/Thompson.. A fantastic experience, the high spots were Penhale Camp and Dunmere (especially 2) – Smith/Turner… Challenging but great enthusiasm from competitors and marshals. Still smiling! – Abrey/Miles… ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT – Andy Lane… Great fun, old fashioned entertainment, well worth coming out of retirement! – Starkey/Lacey… Excellent overall – the forestry was excellent & a class win topped it off – Dawson/Dawson
