LEAF SPRUNG RTV – Torphin Quarry, Harburnhead, by West Calder, Near Livingston
SUNDAY 5 JULY 2015
If you have a leaf sprung Land Rover, why not come along to the Classic RTV trial at Torphin Quarry, near West Calder on Sunday 5th July? This will build on the success of previous years’ events where much old time trialling was to be had.
It will be open to any leaf sprung Land Rover and will consist of non-damaging but occasionally quite technical sections, each with 10 pairs of gates. The site opens at 8am with scrutineering taking place from 8.30am and the start 10.00 am. Willing helpers for marshalling duties will as ever be most welcome. There are some good photos of previous years' events on the website if you want a look. The site should be approached from grid reference NT039˝ 602˝ which is on the B7008 road which runs between the A71 and the A70. The site will be sign posted (with orange arrows), from the B7008’s junctions with these A roads.
Like last year's event at Twechar, this will be a very sociable event, with ample opportunity for those wishing to try their hand at RTV trials and double or triple enter a motor. Last year we even had a number of vehicles that were double or even triple entered. The aim will be to recreate the trials of the 1960s and 70s and will not be too competitive.
If you want a few laughs come along and join us.
