Organisers alter feature to protect cars and crews for MN opener
The Bolton le-Moors Car Club has made the infamous watersplash on the Neil Howard Stages shallower for the opening round of the Motorsport News Circuit Rally Championship this weekend.
The Oulton Park-based event features the watersplash just in front of the Foggarty Moss Centre, to the right of Cascades on the race circuit.
Last year it caused damage to cars and some competitors believed the feature was too deep. The organising team have reduced the depth by three inches to combat the problem.
