Due to popular demand and to let people shake off the Christmas spirit, we are holding an additional Gymkhana on Saturday 3 January 2004 at Llandow (opposite side of the road to the circuit). Start 1:00 pm. This is the first event of the new championship year so if you want to win a championship, be there! Also as it is the new year, membership renewals are due, so bring an extra tenner (members who joined the club for the first time in October, November or December have free membership for 2004).
