Congrats to Big Mike and Jimmy the Snake for a fantastic win in the UK's hardest classic rally, the LE JOG.
The LE JOG (Lands End to John O'Groats) Reliability Trial has become a legend amongst the rallying fraternity. The aim is to drive from one end of Great Britain to the other on minor roads, some quite remote, in just three and a half days, a journey of some 1,500 miles.
The challenge comes from several elements: the weather in early December, which may be anything from bright sun to bitter freezing fog; the task of plotting and driving the navigation and regularity sections without losing time; the skill of negotiating the manoeuvrability tests along the way and not least, of reliability. The Reliability Trial is for cars built before the end of 1974.
The Marque Team Trophy is the main award on LE JOG, and they won with an MG team comprising 3 MGB's. They also had the 6th lowest penalty score out of the 50 or so entrants.
We celebrated on Saturday with Big Mike in style.
Well done chaps. A long overdue victory.
