July 2017 with the handling of the clubman and hopefully see him at more events soon. Craig Ruediger was once again taking on the hill in the rather large Ford XA GT and with healthy competition between him and myself was giving it all, espe- cially on the last run when along with a bit of sideways action managed to beat my time and win out ……this time.
