17-31 July 1999

The competition is earlier than normal this year, so the British Rounds have been brought forward as well. Trust the weather is kind. We were made very welcome to Hungary in 1990 and 1991 and are looking forward to returning for a great comp. Marton Ordody is a very experienced competition organiser and will keep us busy. report


For results and reports of the 1996 British Nationals, read this page. Dual British Champion in 1997 was Eddie Clapham. I didn't record the results, just the dates. In 1998 I managed to regain the British Championship in the 2 seat class and these were the dates.
