The first PCA of the year - indeed the first NDMC PCA for many years - took place on a soaking wet day at Sugworthy. Despite the miserable weather, everyones spirits were high and they were soon attacking the tests with windscreen wipers going into overdrive.

Russ Drayton, who had entered in his Honda, had the largest car and should have been at a dis-advantage. However, he set fastest time on all but one of the tests to take FTD in the Adult class, leaving Keith Squance to take the class award in his Nova.

In the Junior class, Jason Byrom took his Metro to FTD just 5 seconds in front of Tom Aldrich-Smith's Mini, Tom taking the class award for his efforts.
