The future of rallies in the North East
The future of rallies in the North East
(16 Nov 2016, 12:18 pm)RBZ 5459 Nothing has been mentioned publicly by the NEBPT about the 2017 calendar as far as I'm aware, apart from the 'Metrocentre'.
I always feel the Whitley Bay one could be combined with the Classic Car Show The Links has in September, as a joint event like how Seaburn is. But they are organised by different groups I suppose - with the Whitley Bay car show entirely North Tyneside Council's doing. We (THV) were invited to the Classic Car Show again this year via the Trust and took Atlantean 290, they had buses on the concrete (like the rally) but with cars on grass areas. I think many people are put off by the NEBPT Whitley Bay Rally by the fact that there will be fewer bus attendees.
