Motorsport isn’t restricted just to the likes of Lewis Hamilton you know. For instance, En Route was on the spot to report on the British Caravan Road Rally in its June 1969 issue.

 

Held over three days at Mallory Park in Leicestershire, it ran the whole gamut of the caravan driving skillset, involving night driving, hill climbing, reversing tests and all the rest.

 

The reversing test was described as ‘sadistic’ while there was skulduggery aplenty on the hill climb before Martin Lumby was declared the champion in his Renault 16TS / Bluebird Europe 1 combo.
