REGIONAL FIRE & SECURITY SAFARI MAKES A SPLASH

Chris Armstrong and Wayne Clarke defeated the opposition - and the elements - to win last Sunday’s (September 11) Regional Fire & Security September Safari. Thanks to the recent heavy rains, round four of the Barbados Rally Club’s (BRC) MudDogs Safari Championship and Chefette MudDogs Safari Novice Championship was the wettest event in recent memory.

REGIONAL FIRE & SECURITY SAFARI RUNS OFF SUNDAY

  Twenty-three crews have been confirmed for Sunday’s (September 11) Regional Fire & Security September Safari, round four of the Barbados Rally Club’s (BRC) WTI MudDogs Safari Championship and Chefette MudDogs Safari Novice Championship. With recent weather patterns promising ideal conditions for the BRC’s MudDogs arm, a day of good competition is in prospect.   With crews who participate in all five Championship rounds required to drop their worst score at the end of the season, Sunday’s event could be crucial, with just the Nassco October Safari to come before the final reckoning.

CREWS READY FOR REGIONAL FIRE & SECURITY SAFARI

Recent weather patterns and those predicted for the coming weeks promise to provide ideal conditions for the Regional Fire & Security September Safari, the next round of the 2011 WTI MudDogs Safari Championship and the Chefette MudDogs Safari Novice Championship, which will be contested on Sunday, September 11.
