The final round of
the 2005 Silverstone Tyres Ford Rallye Sport Ka Championship, the
Cambrian Rally in Llandudno, takes place this weekend with three
crews in the title frame. Winner of the previous two rounds, Manx
Motorsport Youth Trust recipient
Andrew Leece (Onchan) has one thing in his mind, and that
is three in a row.
Manxman Leece has
turned his season around since retiring from his home round of the
championship, when his season appeared to be in tatters. A gallant
fight back on the Mewla to snatch victory over the last two stages
and leading the Plains from start to finish have show this young man
as a genuine title contender.
The championship
and the prize of a Ford Super 1600 car for the 2005 season all goes
down to the wire. Scotsman Innes Clark currently tops the
leaderboard, having scored on all rounds but a win for N A Fargher
Newsagents backed Leece would see him leapfrog Clark who would have
to drop one points scoring round from his total should he finish
this weekend. Andrew though would have to hope Clark or maybe one
of the early season favorites, Tom Lunn, finish second on the round
to keep John Hanson behind him in the points standings.
Back alongside
Andrew on this event will be newly crowed 2004 Kumho Clubmans
Championship winning Co-driver, fellow MMYT recipient and Manx Gas
backed Rob Fagg (Port
Erin). For Integrated Capabilities supported Fagg, he is hoping to
be able to guide Andrew to championship glory as he pilots the Mark
Higgins Rallying Ka around the North-West Welsh stages.
The Cambrian Rally
takes place on the 6th November starting and finishing on
Llandudno Promenade. The first car is due to start at 08.00 and
the crews will tackle seven stages before finishing from 14:40
onwards.
