Route: 150 Miles
Maps: 160, 161, 170 & 171
Starters: 88
Winners: Matthew Maidment/James Morgan (Peugeot 205)
Matthew Maidment/James Morgan followed up their win on the previous month’s Twilight by taking a narrow victory on a wet and slippery Malky. For the top three crews the matter was decided on just one section, a four minuter just south of Abergavenny in the Coed-y-Prior area. All three were clean of any penalties at all other controls.
Maidment/Morgan managed to stop the clock four seconds earlier than top seeds Carl Davies/Andy Card on this vital test, with Gareth Jones/Dave Powell sixteen seconds further behind.
Mark Robinson/Steve Durbin were third fastest over this section but a fuel pump problem in the second half cost them over three minutes.
Dafydd Evans/Richard Morris were the first non-local crew and finished in fifth place.
Top novices David Jones/Philip Hooper had been fifth at Petrol but three missed route checks later on dropped them to twelfth at the Finish but they still retained their class win.
