After an great performance over the weekend Dave Barrans finished an excellent 13th. Full results here. Some pics can be seen here. We also managed to raise over £3000 pounds from selling our magazine at the show. Thank you to all those who bought it and those that advertised in it. If you missed it send a mail to contact@gazparry.co.uk and we can send one out. The results from the raffle will be published soon.

Qualification for dave Barrans

After a pretty poor showing by competition regulars Andy Earl and Gaz Parry, Dave Barrans qualification into the Semi Final in 4th place was a breath of fresh air. Dave joined the team last year and has been improving ever since.
