2013 Carringtons Safari Rally- Round 5 WA State Rally Championship
 

[FONT=inherit]The 2013 Carringtons Traffic Services Safari Rally is due to run on Saturday the 12th of October in the Mundaring and Chidlow areas.[/FONT]
The Safari is the final round of the outright State Rally Championship and round 5 of the WA State 2WD Championship and Clubman Cup.

The rally's nine stages will all run on the gravel forest roads around Mundaring, with Rally HQ and the service park located in nearby Chidlow. State competitors will have the opportunity to pace note the 110km of special stages, whilst Clubman Cup competitors will compete on the shorter distance of 63km using the organiser's road book in lieu of pace notes.

Event HQ will again be based in the Chidlow Tavern located on Thomas St in Chidlow, directly opposite the service park. Food and drinks will be available from the Chidlow Tavern throughout the event. Meals will also be available during the presentation ceremony (straight after the rally) in the Chidlow Tavern.

As with all rallies, the organisers (yours truly has taken over the reigns as Clerk of Course) are seeking volunteer officials to assist with running the event. If you or someone you know would like a private spectator point in the forest or can help out in any way, please contact Danielle Jeffrey Zero401 847 five75.

Reminder the Safari is on this weekend in the Mundaring/Chidlow area..
We're still in need of 7 or so road closures so if anyone can help out, please contact us and we'll get you sorted.

Great event to watch, and thanks to Karl for allowing me to sign on as a photographer, (once all the required paperwork was sighted)

Got there just as the drivers briefing was happening so was running a bit late so very few service park shots.

Got to the rocks for the first time, and with the clear fell, well worth it even in our SS ute, and will be back there for sure next year.

Photos below are some of the ones here. [url=http://tttmsp.smugmug.com/DirtRally/Safari-2013/Carringtons-Safari-Rally-2013/32573753_Q9qDgd#!i=2831786751&k=rXfFQv7]Carringtons Safari Rally 2013 - tttmsp's Photos | SmugMug[/url]

Also had the gopro out, and yet to see this, but there hopefully is a nice vid of a scottish bloke running the camera over. :D

Not sure if they wanted to go through me after messing up the corner, but if they did, they would have needed a set of wire cutters to remove the car from a partial fence Matti-Latvola style.;)

I had the surviving gopro.

The younger guy (Ashley) may also be lurking here as he recently bought a bugeye.
