Mud Dogs / Navigational Rally

BRC24-19: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – November 13, 2024

Tie-breaks needed to settle MudDogs Championship

Crews competing in the Barbados Rally Club’s (BRC) Chefette MudDogs Safari Championship are making ready for the fifth and final round of this year’s competition, Saturday’s (November 9) Savvy on the Bay November Safari. Recent rains promise a challenging final test for the Club’s off-road 4x4 navigational fraternity.

Simon Parravicino and Andrew Croney won Sunday’s (September 15) Super S September Safari, an event described as “fantastic” by first-time winner Parravicino. Recent weather patterns had created ideal conditions for the 4x4 off-road fraternity to enjoy the penultimate round of the Chefette MudDogs Safari Championship.

Recent weather patterns delivering regular heavy rain have created perfect conditions to challenge the Barbados Rally Club’s (BRC) off-road 4x4 navigational fraternity in Sunday’s (September 15) Super S September Safari. After a three-month summer break, crews are making ready for the fourth of five rounds of the Chefette MudDogs Safari Championship, which will feature the return of the popular Driver Challenges for the first time this year.

When the Barbados Rally Club (BRC) marks its 67th Anniversary this weekend (June 29/30) with the Chefette June Safari, the entry list will include the youngest crew by combined ages to start an event since the MudDogs Championship began 20 years ago. And their participation emphasizes one of the founding tenets of the Club in the 1950s, the importance of family for continuity.

Leslie Alleyne and Chris O’Neal won last Sunday’s (April 20) All Terrain/Rock Oil MudDogs April Safari, the second round of the Barbados Rally Club’s (BRC) 2024 Chefette MudDogs Safari Championship. It was the fourth time they have won the Audley Croney Memorial Trophy, awarded each April in honour of a long-standing member of the BRC and an enthusiastic and skillful competitor in navigational events.

The father and son crew of Stephen and Ben Moore will start at number one for the All Terrain/Rock Oil MudDogs April Safari on Saturday (April 20). The reigning Chefette MudDogs Safari Class B Champions finished third in the 2024 season’s curtain-raiser last month, so will be looking to raise their game campaigning the Moore & Moore Services/Maxxis Isuzu DMax.
