Club Waimea Car Rally

May 16th, 2013

The old adage “if all else fails, read the instructions” could have easily been applied to almost all the crews that took up the challenge of the annual Club Waimea Car Rally held recently but, adults being adults, the majority showed a distinct inability to follow straight-forward simple instructions, or did they honestly believe they knew more about where they were meant to going and what they were meant to be doing than the organiser.  By allowing local knowledge and ‘over-active brains’ to override common sense, many crews were soon well off-course, a course that initially went round in circles in upper Richmond before heading off on a bit of a tiki-tour through Hope, Moutere, and Mahana before returning to Richmond.  Off-course is really an under-statement considering some of the distances covered and reports of crews going round and round in ever-decreasing (or in some cases, ever-increasing) circles as far away as Motueka but more especially in and around the Old Coach Road / Dominion Road area.

 Run by the same organiser for the fifth year running, one would have thought regulars of the event would have got a bit of a handle on the way his warped mind worked, but in an effort to keep one step ahead of crews, a return to basics with a couple of curved balls thrown in just to keep them on their toes seemed to throw them off the scent.  This certainly appeared to have the desired effect, so that obeying simple instructions and carrying them out in the correct order was most certainly the downfall of most crews. 

Although fun was the name of the game, reports indicate that there were some rather ‘heated in-car discussions’ over the just under 90km journey that should have seen crews retuning to the finish in well under 3 hours, however, while the major compliant seemed to revolve around  dehydration setting in, the general consensus was that most thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon’s jaunt and the challenge despite the pitfalls  –  or at least that’s what they were telling the organiser.  Hey, it couldn’t have been too bad as no-one was yelling for a divorce lawyer at the end of the afternoon !!!
