Going Le Jogging>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>The 2006 Le Jog (Lands End to John O’ Groats) rally is a motorsport event with a difference.

It is open to cars built before 1981 and there are two classes; touring and reliability. Motors TV has a review of this year’s event.

Senior juniors>>>>>>>>>>>>>>The final round of this year’s FIA Junior World Rally Championship takes place on the wet and demanding stages of southern Wales for Wales Rally GB.

However, it stood and so six drivers arrived in Wales with the chance of claiming the crown. Motors TV highlights the action that will see a new champion come Sunday afternoon in Cardiff.
