Ross-on-Wye duo Roger Matthews and Paul Morris continued their good, early season form, finishing 25th overall, 5th in class and 1st post historic home at the weekend's Wye Dean Rally.

Another Ross pair, Dan Gray, with new co-driver Matt Rogers on board, in the I.M Gray Plumbing 1400 Peugeot 106, took 35th and 6th 1400 home, while Ross father and daughter Gary and Tiffany Bollands, in the GB Motor Services Subaru Impreza, finished 43rd & 11th in class.

Paul Gunter, with the experienced Den Golding alongside, took 57th overall, 3rd in class in the BG Landrovers Escort RS.

Scottish duo David Bogie and Kevin Rae stormed to an easy victory on last weekend's Weir Engineering Wyedean Forest Rally in the Ford Focus WRC. Full report in this week's paper.
