[QUOTE=rx-guru]1982–1988: see chunder’s list
1989: yep, Gollop fastest over 1 lap only (due to fog) 1989 - That was a kind of scary event looking back. I had been the rallycross Chief Startline for a bit by then but nothing prepared me or the team for that event. We let the cars off the Brands grid one at a time (using a flag over the windscreen like a rally stage start) on the radioed instructions of the track controller. Given that the rallycross startline was a tad behind the circuit startline, it was still surprising to note that each car had disappeared in the fog by the time it reached the start light gantry........ Not forgetting also that the only lights on a rallycross car are the rear brake lights........ In similar weather today, and with improvements in health and safety, I do wonder whether the meeting would have gone ahead. |

I`m seem to remember Arthur D saying that an ERC round at Lydden, carried the Grand Prix title. The 1996 event?

Thats correct - the grand prix was run in 96 as part of erc at lydden which hansen won.
However you seem to have forgotten about Croft in 2002 which Haffey won and then Croft in 2004 which Doran won!! |

The 2004 event was a 'superprix' (as this years event will be), it's not an official MSA RX GP (I believe the amount of £ required to use the title was something ridiculous!)

I think if you check with Pat he wont be too pleased when he has to remind you it was certainly a GP title he won in 2004!

Really? An MSA GP? I didn't think so. (I have been known to be wrong )

I think it must be one of those rare occasions today then!
Steve Slater (from the MSA) presented Pat with the trophy. Croft had previously bought the rights for the GP title |

So if Croft bought the rights to the name was it only for that year or ongoing? |

Seems that me ol’ ERC mate TW has problems with Mr Alois Alzheimer too. Story title in his Rallycross World Winter 2004/’05 issue no. 15 reads "Doran takes British GP win". (Croft, November 6 2004)

Whichever way you look at it, its a mouthwatering list of cars and drivers! Long may it continue. I suppose it leads to the next thread - who's going to be next on the list????

Apropos: People that are interested in RX statistics should take a look into the new "History" section of Rallycross Online. A similar section for ERC24 is already under construction.
