I've navigated on trials for the last 4 years, but as I wasnt I thought id shoot down and watch. This was the first time i'd seen Simms from outside the car. Was easy going tho, as most cars where clearing this section, which is normally a 'stopper' Think I need to buy my dad's mate's beetle off him..... anyway more pics      James |

Ideal! Thats my old mans TR7 (with me navigating). We were well chuffed to clear that section. Only the second time out of six we've done so. Cleared all the others as well so on for a Gold award. ;D Great pics as well. |

How does one get into this kind of motorsport? do you require a special licence or is it as easy as buying a car and seeing how you do? Please say its the latter Cheers Dan |

I think this is a lot cheaper, and probably more skillful than people realise.
Basic, and real driving and navigating skills, mixed with a bit of ingeniuety, and some balls.
Thanks for the pics and replies.

It looks like brilliant fun, how often do they hold events? Do they have a web page?

Oh my. That does look fun! Quite a few 2CVs doing it, even though FWD seems like a positive disadvantage when it comes to muddy hillclimbs (the pro 2CVers usually cut a hole straight through the bonnet and have two spares on top of the engine!)
