Event Cancelled
Posted: December 23, 2021 2:09 PM
"It is with regret that Carmarthen Motor Club and BARC (Pembrey) Ltd
announce the cancellation of the WWRS Jaffa Stages Rally scheduled for
Tuesday 28th December 2021.
With the new Covid regulations announced today for Wales, the relevant
Authorities cannot currently confirm that we can proceed with the event. As
organisers, we were also becoming increasingly concerned at the number of
competitors and key officials who have already been in contact to forewarn us
that they may have a problem due to having to isolate following positive Covid
tests.
This has not been an easy decision for any of us. Club members were just
finishing setting up the first stage when the news broke, our printer was in early
this morning to finish our requirements before closing for Christmas, and so it
goes on. I can assure you that that the commitment of Carmarthen Motor Club
and BARC (Pembrey) Ltd was there to the end, but there comes a point where
very difficult decisions have to be taken.
Only yesterday, thanks to sterling joint efforts by Motorsport UK, Pembrey Staff
and our Clerks of the Course, a totally revised event format was drafted, agreed
and sanctioned to comply with revised restrictions announced less than twelve
hours earlier. Today, those regulations were further restricted in such a way
that it would appear to be impossible to hold the event.
We share your disappointment in losing the event, and thank you in anticipation
for your understanding.
Both Carmarthen Motor Club and BARC (Pembrey) have naturally incurred
significant losses in arriving at this decision, but nevertheless I can confirm that
we will be making refunds to competitors in due course. There are logistical
difficulties in making a large number of refunds quickly, so please bear with us.
We will process them as soon as we are able to."
