The Bank Holiday weekend event captured a full entry of some 75 cars that took in the tracks and lanes of Carmarthenshire and Ceredigion.

With heavy overnight rain it was a challenge to finish the event as many competitors found out but those that made the finish had a great event with plenty of smiling faces after racing the cars around the countryside lanes.

The overall winner was John Tyres Davies  / Eurig Davies in a Ford Puma.
