xr2 worlds
I'm going to compile a list of past drivers and navigators who may have time this year between them who might be able to help your navigatin problems. I'll pm you all a list. It's worth a phone call.

Well done and many thanks to our UIM Cominoff Member - Gary Manchester - who persauded the Committee to let XR2s run for the Guernsey World Championships. Without GM's hard work and effort in Stockholm last weekend this would not have happened.

xr2 and worlds
you are quite right wss,whoever you are,gary and jp did a good job re xr2 at uim meeting,however,the correct procedure has been taken which was competitor suggests dispensation for xr2 ,club official takes suggestion to ORC,then gary as uim rep takes suggestion to UIM.So gary as uim rep was only doing what the grass root competitor suggested.This was NOT garys idea!! On another point wss why do you not publish your identity
