So much torque that thing of Matts !

Yep cracking day, Nick now just over a second behind me in our Historic Road Rally car, PB for both of us in this car, me 74.78 and Nick on 76.02,

but miles behind Matts stunning time, which was pretty much identical time as my 300bhp 4WD Impreza 10 years ago, and I was second in class in the big road "registered" class !, mind you them boys are now down to 60 seconds, with some cars being run by race teams and shaving the tyres after each run.

even the 205 GTi / Clio etc road car class lads were on there second set of "road" tyres for the weekend, how things evolve to be competitive

So with the class standard now at 70 / 71 seconds, we have some work to do with both cars for next year, that's us done for this year

some piccys in paddock

Tims blue Mk1 race car is just the DBs !!

Defiantly George, Nicks splits were about 0.20 down on me, and if he was a bit braver on the last corner ..........
