On a rally of high attrition the Revolution Wheels Rally Team run by Geoff Jones Motorsport recorded a 100% finish rate on last weekends Jim Clark Rally. With all three drivers consistently on the pace, along with young James Wozencroft’s fourth overall in the British Rally Championship classification, there was much to be positive about.

Ludlow based James Wozencroft and Chris Ridge in their Subaru N11 were on the pace of the front runners all weekend, aside from 2 quick spins, did not put a foot wrong, ending the rally 4th amongst the BRC crews. What a fantastic weekend. It was a bit of a learning curve but Chris and I drove at our own pace and were pleasantly surprised to be up with the likes of David Higgins. We made a few silly mistakes but it’s all part of the learning process.

Bishop Stortford based Rob Swann struggled with a series of punctures on the debut of his new Subaru Impreza N14. However Rob was pleased to be on the pace of the front runners until he suffered the ignominy of rolling his N14 at high speed on the final stage. Rob and his Phweli based co-driver Darren Garrod were caught out by a 5th gear jump over a bridge. Fortunately neither were injured and in fact continued to finish the rally, albeit down in 18th overall. We were really unlucky to get caught out over that bridge, but thankfully we are both ok. The car is good but there is definitely still work needed to get her perfect, but there is massive potential!

Team principal Warren McKiernan was pleased with how the weekend had panned out. I am delighted with the pace of all three drivers, we showed that on a clean run we can challenge for the podium positions.

The Jim Clark International Rally was based in Kelso, Scotland, and featured 150 stage miles in 17 stages run over Saturday 24th and Sunday 25h of May. The rally, which counted towards both the Tesco 99 Octane MSA British Rally Championship and the Global Irish Tarmac Championship, was won by Eamonn Boland in a Subaru Impreza World Rally Car. Mark Higgins was the first British Championship registered driver home in third overall.
