The final round of the Barbados Rally Club (BRC) 4 x 4 Navigational Championship – the Toyota November Safari – had attracted a healthy entry of 34 crews by the end of last night’s briefing meeting; and, with late entries being accepted until Thursday afternoon, the number may yet rise.
This Sunday’s (November 13) event is slated to start at 8.00am from the Windward Cricket Club in St Philip, following scrutineering at 7.00am . . . and there’s all to fight for over 100 kilometres of rough terrain.

After eight events spread across as many months, the 2005 Virgin Atlantic Barbados Rally Club (BRC) Driver’s Championship has been settled by just one point in favour of Roger Hill in the Mobil 1/Nassco/Motormac/Michelin Toyota Celica GT4.
The Toyota dealer emerged from last Sunday’s (October 16) final round at Bushy Park with a clean sheet, victory in the Modified 8 Group, plus the two bonus points as Group leader in each of the day’s two routes; dropping his lowest score of 10 left Hill with a total of exactly 100 points.

A last-minute rush of entries has set up a superb finale to the Barbados Rally Club’s (BRC) new-for-2005 Texaco BRC Rally Championship . . . thirty-six drivers were listed when entries closed, offering fans the prospect of a very special – and unusual - day of motor sport at Bushy Park in St Philip.

It is not just the Barbados Rally Club’s (BRC) new-for-2005 Texaco BRC Rally Championship that will be decided at Bushy Park this Sunday (October 16). The BRC Driver’s Championship, which this year enjoys sponsorship from Virgin Atlantic Airways, is also yet to be resolved as it reaches its eighth and final round at the St Philip racetrack.
