Website Update
I have finally cracked how I'm going to do the Gallery pages. As the regulars know (but the newcomers don't), this website is Jaggy-built and Jaggy-maintained following night classes at Motherwell Tech over the past two Winters - but I'm still struggling with this new fangled technology. Anyway, I have got it cracked and I'll get some pics up soon. Mind you, 'soon' is a relative term - think days rather than hours! But it'll be worth the wait.

Advice for Newcomers

If you're new to this website, then it's not for the faint hearted. It's all about Scottish rallying for Scottish rally followers. However, furriners are welcome.

And it's not just about rallying. To try and maintain interest between events and gossip columns I have started to include Jaggy's very own car appraisals and opinions. This is an offshoot from his 'proper' job, but unrestricted by the demands and threats of other editors and employers, Jaggy can state what he truly thinks!

And finally, an explanation ....

The 'Culture' section in this here website started as a bit of fun. This was my project at my introductory 8 week evening class last year where I was learning to make websites. Apparently the other 'students' liked it, so I thought some of you might also find it interesting, entertaining and educational! And it's all perfectly true!!
