Booth Farm
Simon Knight captures Sam Pellowe cleaning Booth Farm driving his Class 7 Dellow Mk1 on his first trial. The Edinburgh wasn’t a good trial for Dellows. Sams Dad Tim retired with transmission problems as did Steve Strutt in Class 2. John Wheelers fuel pump failed before the start and Andrew Isherwood went off piste early in the trial and couldn’t continue. This left Sam and Mike Pearson in his Replica Mk2 as the only Dellow finishers.
Despite the threatening sky Booth Farm was dry and with nobody having to restart was.easily cleanable this year, only giving trouble to a few later numbers as the track cut up.
