Also A= 1300cc too, they must be real fast

[Truenotch]

You've got that right! It's this car:

Marshal training tonight at the Forest Elbow bar on Featherston St - starts at 7pm.


Come along if you're signed up to marshal, want to lend a hand or are just keen to have a beer.

[Boost_4_Life]

when you get stuck behind the sumo b1 give him a good old tap....

47 entries, are the club breaking even? i was going to be there but no money, spent it all on top half

[Truenotch]

Yeah, break even is about 45 from memory... I think 47 is pretty decent for rallying in the central NI at the moment though.


Make sure you bump the Sumo around the 2nd to last intersection on Ridge Rd (SS7)... I'll have the camera ready!

[Boost_4_Life]

yea esp considering silver fern takes a few away. there are a few up here doing the fern that would otherwise have entered. just saw a mint newly built bdg escort drive past work.... *jizz*

[B1NZ]

Ah, is that the Hyabusa powered one? Yeah I'm pretty sure I wont be catching Chris Clarke in the Sumo wagon, I think I managed to make some time up on him in a couple of stages at Wairarapa but not a minute.

I'm more worried about being too slow and the 3 cars behind me catching up

[B1NZ]

Grrr, Daybreaker broke me

[Dell'Orto]

What'd you collect?

[Sideros]

Grrr, Daybreaker broke me

I saw you towed through the middle point of SS4... Couldn't see any damage from where I was standing though.

[Distrb]

What'd you collect?

a bank. and not the kind that vends cash money

only minor biff, but enough to put us out due to lack of spares. happened 3.5km through SS4, got towed back to service by recovery.

damage count (all lhs) = outer cv, lower balljoint, lower arm, rim, tyre (likely to be salvageable), guard, corner light, swaybar link.

you fault then, Andrew. any panel damage is by navigational error (a mate told me taht when he wanted me to co-drive for him), especially LHS

Looks like a decent hit.

Aren't real rally drivers supposed to biff the LHS before all else anyway?

[Leon]

my driver was a real rally driver then ... clipped the "navigator" side of the car not once, but twice
