2009 Training & Briefing Day
Sunday 25th October, Motor Heritage Centre, Gaydon
Itinerary
The Training and Briefing day for the 2009 LE JOG will once again be open to any competitor who has, or is about to submit, an entry on this year�s event. In addition we will be delighted to welcome any potential competitor, who just wants to find out what LE JOG is all about. The training day is particularly useful to anyone who has not competed on LE JOG before, although regulars often attend as there are usually a few tips to be picked up. You will also have the chance to meet fellow competitors, senior officials and perhaps find potential team members. Whilst part of the morning will be spent talking about navigation and regularity sections, Tour entrants will still find the day useful and informative
.
One of our scrutineers will be in attendance and will be pleased to talk to you about any issues with your car. If you want to bring your car along, the scrutineer will be happy to give it a quick check over for eligibility and mechanical condition so that any potential problems can be resolved well before December.
