Sorry Phil,
As this is the weekend of my mother's birthday, I will not be available.
John
Good evening all, and apologies to those who get this email twice.WICEN has been approached about assisting with a Car Rally being conducted at Cooma on Sat November 4th.This event is being conducted by the Light Car Club of Canberra (LCCC) and consists of 7 separate stages on council roads around Cooma.Ideally we would like to be able to have enough people to man 18 field stations with 3 in HQ, which is quite an ask of course. There is a possibility that people on SS1 & 2 could relocate to SS6 & 7 but timing would be tight.My wife Sally & I went down and drove the course recently and it looks to be a very fast set of roads for the competitors (I was averaging 90 - 100kph in my Ute).The schedule has the first car commencing from Cooma Township at 10:00 AM meaning the first stage needs to be set-up and ready around 9:00 and so I would expect a meet time of around 8:00 AM out near the Snowy Mountains Airport. Last stage is expected to finish around 5:30 PM.Travel time to Cooma from Canberra CBD is around 1Hr & 20 minutes according to Google so an early start for people wishing to attend.WICEN traffic will be on VHF and hand-held radio's are not suitable, a good mobile radio capable of 10 watts or better and a good antenna is a must for this one. All places are accessible by standard 2WD vehicles and the roads are all in good condition.All comers welcome, whether you have done a car rally before or not we can use you, but transport is your responsibility.So, who, if anyone, can assist with this exercise ? Please let me know ASAP by email to wicen@crarc.ampr.org.Thanks in advance,Phil Longworth VK1PLDeputy State Coordinator WICEN ACT,Treasurer, CRARC
