		The Roger Albert Clark (RAC) Rally, which starts from Sheffield on Saturday, will retrace the path of Britain's round of the world championship from the days when the RAC Rally was one of the most feared and highly respected events on the calendar.
		The former world champion was due to have his last rally in Australia this weekend but was forced out of the event prematurely when he crashed during the reconnaissance on Wednesday; a sad way for the winner of a record 26 world championship rallies to quit.
		By moving Rally GB to September, daylight hours were increased, which may have pleased television producers but did nothing for the murky traditions of the event.

		With rallies in Europe (such as the Alpine and the gruelling Liege-based marathons) becoming far tougher, the 1952 RAC Rally was moved back to March in search of worse weather.

		The Rally was held in March 1932; at the end of the five-day competition, 259 cars arrived in Torquay without penalty.

		Two reasons: (a) he was a real-life RAC rally co-driver at about the same time your Arkwright invented the Spinning Jenny, and (b) he was quite cheap as 'celebrities' go (£1,500 for the week, apparently).
		Network Q RAC Rally is littered with little rallying clips, although, unfortunately, the Bloke In Lake out-take isn't among them.
		The spectators at RAC Rally events often cack their pantaloons as well.

	The 1971 RAC Rally
		The considerable involvement by the club in the ’70 RAC Rally had finally created the one thing that had been missing from the club, a regular weekly meeting.
		The rest of the rally was uneventful for us but one of the saddest sights of the event must surely have been the abandoned car on the very last stage.
		We thought our rally was over but somehow we extricated the car from the mess (it was so slippery that two of us could push the car sideways) and, with most of our lights still working, we continued.
