Chefette Restaurants has been confirmed as title sponsor of the Barbados Rally Club’s (BRC) MudDogs Safari & Safari Novice Championships for the third year, continuing its enthusiastic backing for the series, which began with the awarding of Novice trophies in 2010. Competitors are now making preparations for the new season, which kicks off with Sunday’s (March 1) March Safari.

Entries for Sol Rally Barbados 2015 (May 29-31) have surged past 80, with support for the four-wheel-drive classes now representing more than a quarter of the entries received on-line through the official web site, rallybarbados.net. As the Barbados Rally Club (BRC) celebrates the 25th Anniversary of its first International All-Stage Rally, the overseas interest is at record levels.

Second-generation British motor sport competitors, brothers Oliver and Philip Hopkins, will both compete in Sol Rally Barbados 2015 (May 29-31), when the Barbados Rally Club (BRC) celebrates the 25th Anniversary of its first International All-Stage Rally . . . but they will not be sitting in the same car.

The Barbados Karting Association’s 2014 Frutee Championship Awards Presentation in January was the first such occasion hosted in the new Bushy Park Barbados Clubhouse.

Nicholas Gill, winner of the Yamaha 310 Premier Class and BKA Champion Driver for 2014, was just one of nearly 40 competitors and volunteers whose achievements or commitment to the sport were recognised, while BKA Chairman Stephen Mayers thanked the Club’s for their continued support.
