The Scootacar Rally is set to occur on the 17th to 20th of June if I have the calender straight, that is the old MEC longest day weekend and traditionally always fine. It will be held near Stoke Ferry on the Norfolk/Cambs boarder in the private airfield. There will be run outs, there is a fish and chip van booked and sounds like a butty breakfast van. Boglets are under discussion. The site can have open access over the weekend it seems, handy for all. The aim is to try for 25 Scootacars in any condition. A brave shout. More details and regs will be available soon from Martin MacKeever who is keen to get Scootacars present but is reluctant to turn away enthusiasts with other running microcars. Villiers power is being encouraged therefore as second choice and Stan contacted amongst others to get some Bonds along with Friskys and such from RUMcars. So I might take the Mk2 and Frisky. It sounds a good place to take the unusual.
A shame that it will clash with the Heinkel Trojan Club annual rally that is being held a bit further up the east coast near Hull. :-\

Why is it a shame? Heinkel/Trojan have their own rally. So Scootacars can have their own rally. Surely all micros together have the National?
I suppose it could be awkward for an owner of a Heinkel and a Scootacar to get to both on the same weekend.
Alan, have you been forgetting to take your medication again?
Your recent post is offensive to all those who work hard to organise the NMR.
“Even the National gets advertised perilously close to Chrimbo and missus the almanacs. Boncer three. As I have continually said we should be at least a year in advance of this to give organisers a chance to make the events better. Thus we should already know who and where the National 2012 is to be. Boncer four. I would suggest that the organisation that was formed to administer the National is failing in its duty here”
The NMR has been a great success in recent years and has announced future rally dates at least 10 months in advance. (Unlike your recently announced Scootacar rally that is giving folk only half that advance warning). Perhaps if you subscribed to Rumcar News you might be better informed before slagging off all those who actually do any work.
