2nd/3rd February 2008
Clerk of the Course: Danny Lewis & Lyndon Jones
Route: 100 Miles
Maps: 145 & 157
Starters: 75
Winners: Hefin Lewis/Carwyn Evans (Vauxhall Astra)
Having finished eighth on the Bro Preseli last year, Hefin Lewis/Carwyn Evans emphatically stamped their authority on the 2008 event by finishing exactly three minutes ahead of their nearest rival, having dropped just under six minutes themselves. It was a miserable night for marshals with torrential showers and a cold gale blowing down the coast.
Despite excluding Expert crews from the novice oriented rally, Teifi Valley MC attracted 75 starters to their traditional season opener.
The runner up spot was taken by the top Novice Class crew, Rhydian George/Reian Jones, they’d moved up from third at the halfway point. Driver turned navigator James Evans guided brother Robert to third place at the Finish.
It was not a good night for the top crews. By Petrol the three top seeds were all out; Huw Phillips/Tim Chell with broken brake callipers, Gareth Thomas/Huw Jones due to navigator illness, while Robert James/Aled Johnson failed a mid-event noise test.
