2017 Winners Mark Lennox Ian Beamond from Bishops Castle
Bettws was pleased to be chosen by Newtown And District Automobile Club as the venue for the 2017 Holrus Targa Rally. We had a full entry of 60 cars but there were a couple of last minute drop outs on the day which meant we started with a field of 58. We had crews travelling from Merthyr Tydfil, Anglesey, and even Essex.

The overall winners were the local crew of Mark Lennox & Ian Beamond from Bishops Castle, in their MK2 escort, who won by a mere 15seconds, so you can see how close it was at the top, with less than a minute between the top five, quite impressive over a 70 mile route!

By the finish we ended up with just 34 finishers so there was quite a high attrition rate. It was a tough event for driver, navigator and seemingly cars / tyres!
