A reminder, the following is an extract from recent SCOR minutes:
Spill Kits. From the MSA a rule change that will affect all competitors. Common Regulations for Competitors: Vehicles [C (b)]: Strongly recommended from 1st Jan 2010 and Mandatory from 1st Jan 2011:
It is strongly recommended for all competitors participating in single venue competitions to have available at their paddock base, and for multi venue competitions to carry within their vehicle a self contained spill kit capable of effectively absorbing minor spillages of up to 1.5litres of all vehicle fluids – oils, fuels, coolants, battery acid. Used spill kits are to be disposed of in accordance with local or National guidelines.
Simone stated that by looking at online sites prices varied from approx £15-30. Richard Smith, Midland ROC stated that his company could supply kits which will absorb up to 2ltrs and details have appeared in ALRC News. Costs are £6.95 per kit but clubs can buy them in multiples of 10 for £6.25 each. We suggested that one 7.5 litre pack be available at an event and positioned beside the main event fire extinguisher.
I have received the following ref the 2 Day Charity RTV hosted by Wye & Welsh:
Just a reminder that the 2 Day Charity Team RTV trial is at the end of this month (26th./27th. June)Hosted by the Wye & Welsh LRC, it's taking place at Radyr, near Cardiff.
If you are quick, we will still accept entries as we have "extended the closing date until the allotted spaces are filled." ( If C&D can do it, so can we ! )
Please let our bookings guy, Pete Gladman, know that you'll be coming.
