The experienced husband and wife crew of Leslie and Annalee Alleyne lead the 2006 Barbados Rally Club (BRC) Safari Championship at the half-way stage; in what is proving to be a highly-competitive season, just a handful of points cover the leading crews - two events remain, the next challenge to be faced being the BRC August Safari at the end of this month.

Paul Bourne in the Warrens Motors/Plus Subaru Impreza WRC heads the entry list for the Barbados Rally Club’s (BRC) Summer Nights Tarmac Sprint, to be contested on Saturday evening (July 29) at Cliff in St John . . . a speed event happening literally on his doorstep.
Eight Group winners from last month’s Rally Barbados 2006 are also listed among more than 20 entries received by mid-day Thursday; with entries not closing until that evening, and a late entry facility open until 5.00pm Friday, organisers were confident of a good turn-out.

The island's oldest organised motor sport event proved to be one of the toughest of recent times, with more than half the 27 starters failing to make it to the end of last weekend’s (June 10/11) Toyota Barbados Rally Club (BRC) June Safari. After nearly 20 hours of competition, just 13 crews reached the finish at the Vaucluse Raceway in St Thomas.

More than 30 cars are entered for the Barbados Rally Club’s (BRC) Carnival Warm-up Tarmac Rally, the first of the season and a shakedown event for Rally Barbados. Slated for a 9.00am start from McEnearney Quality Inc’s premises in Wildey on Sunday (April 9), the event is the second round of the Texaco BRC Rally Championship.
