#11: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: EdCherry, Location: WiltshirePosted: Fri Jul 08, 2011 2:14 pm ---- Lee, the regs say that you cannot compete unless a driver and co-driver are in the vehicle.
My license doesn't cover stage rallies mac, although will cover most other rallies up to national b status of event. I can certainly shout, but my full face muffles it a bit...
#12: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Fri Jul 08, 2011 2:15 pm ---- I wasn't been serious

Worth checking Ed... You only need a non-race license at national B level
#19: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: macj, Location: EssexPosted: Sat Jul 09, 2011 2:10 pm ---- UPDATE... yes you can Ed, MSA says yes. National race license is valid for non-race national B stage rally
#20: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: EdCherry, Location: WiltshirePosted: Sat Jul 09, 2011 2:15 pm ---- Oh damn does this mean I just put myself in the passenger seat! I hate the passenger seat!

#24: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: EdCherry, Location: WiltshirePosted: Mon Jul 11, 2011 1:30 pm ---- We will see... it depends wether I have a job by then or not and if they are racing that weekend. Im currently in valencia for a racefor that weekend.
#25: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: macj, Location: EssexPosted: Fri Jul 15, 2011 12:46 pm ---- OK guys.... there are a couple of hopefuls but who really thinks they can hack it in the hot seat
#26: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: Seb, Location: Under your bedPosted: Fri Jul 15, 2011 1:09 pm ---- I'd do it, but haven't taken my race license just yet.
#27: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: macj, Location: EssexPosted: Fri Jul 15, 2011 1:52 pm ---- You only need a non-race license..... think its £39 with no test...
But you need Peltor helmet with intercom, MSA race suit and boots
#28: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: Seb, Location: Under your bedPosted: Fri Jul 15, 2011 2:52 pm ---- I've got the gear somewhere (if not I can borrow it)... just no license. Seems I might be on holiday then anyway which is a shame actually as I could probably have sorted a license before then.
#29: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: macj, Location: EssexPosted: Sat Jul 16, 2011 9:50 am ---- I have had an email from a regular co-driver who is looking for the seat on this rally so I am sorted and the entry is in. Thanks to all who offered help.
All I need now is a digital camcorder and mount for the roll cage to record our progress
#30: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: Seabook, Posted: Sat Jul 16, 2011 10:03 am ---- i got camcorder but i don't have the mount
#31: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: macj, Location: EssexPosted: Sat Jul 16, 2011 10:19 am ---- I am not very clever when it comes to camcorders.... how many minutes of footage can you record continually on what size memory card?
What sort of power lead does it need?
What kind of fitting is needed to screw it to a roll cage mount?
#32: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: Seabook, Posted: Sat Jul 16, 2011 10:44 am ---- each battery should be able to record 90 min. i got 1 spare battery.
i got a 2gb sd card, should record about 60 mins.
in terms of the rollcage mount i have no idea. my kit looks like this
i think might be a few p-clip around the cam and then use the jubliee clip to hold that onto the roll bar?
#33: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: macj, Location: EssexPosted: Sat Jul 16, 2011 10:49 am ---- Has it got a tread the same as a Dogcam bullet camera?
#34: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: Seabook, Posted: Sat Jul 16, 2011 11:01 am ---- it doesn't said dogcam on the camcorder,
it said mini DVR on the body and it use sony ccd camera
but it does look similar to the one in their webpage
can't see any thread on the camera, it is a perfect smooth cylinder shape
#35: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: macj, Location: EssexPosted: Sat Jul 16, 2011 11:14 am ----

I think my wife has one of those in her bedside drawer
I may need to buy one off that website. Can you have a look for me and see what the dog cam ones are like for me
#36: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: Seabook, Posted: Sat Jul 16, 2011 11:53 am ---- how long do you need to record?
1.5 hrs battery life, take up to 32gb memory card, also got the special rollcage mount too.
#37: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: imjeeves, Location: Glasgow / WellingPosted: Mon Aug 01, 2011 1:32 pm ---- There are loads of cams for rallying mate.
Best combo I had way just a camcorder with audio input for the intercom.
You need specific mounts or at least something descent or you wont pass scrutineering.
They are VERY fussy about it
#38: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: Addaz, Location: SuffolkPosted: Mon Aug 01, 2011 1:43 pm ---- This woodbrige by any chance?
Hmmm temptations, shame my dad wouldnt agree

#39: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: macj, Location: EssexPosted: Mon Aug 01, 2011 3:13 pm ---- Yes it is woodbridge..... I have an experienced co-driver now for this one, But there is the new Snetterton stages in November
#40: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: Addaz, Location: SuffolkPosted: Mon Aug 01, 2011 3:15 pm ---- We are doing both
Nice to see what the how the 205 performs after her new box and suspension set up
#41: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: macj, Location: EssexPosted: Tue Aug 02, 2011 1:45 am ---- Whats your unseeded entry number.... I will look out for you
#42: Re: Rally co-driver wanted for stage rally 24th September Author: Jay794, Location: Sheffield/Chesterfield/DronfieldPosted: Tue Aug 02, 2011 3:17 am ---- I'd love to give this a go, but zero racing experience and no license lol
