This weekend we raced Schakenborg Grus (=gravel) Rally 2010, and finished 2nd in class and 27nd overall. The newly build engine needs some tweeks and we had a brake failure on SS5 that cost us 40 sec.
Video's are on its way to Youtube.....

Hi Kenneth,
Great video but you won't need to sandblast the underside if you decide to restore it !!
Thanks

Great to see that you've got it screwed back together Kenneth. Also great to see that the foliage isn't purple any longer.
Were you on Hakkas or the Yokohama A032?
What regs does your class run to? I.e. What mods do they allow and do they accept any modern stuff?

Well done
congratulations with the result, and can only agree to the above, cool with the pic in pic.
Was HRH Prins Joakim there to watch? sounds like it was close to where he lives?

Thanks guys!

I ran on Hakkas as I did last year. Yokohama A032 are for tarmac events

We run FIA App. K - but we are not that many historic rally cars in Denmark, so no period split. We run all cars up to 1981 (period I)

Hi Kenneth,
Nice to see you back in the rally scene. Especially after all the troube you guy's went through lately.
Very very nice footage from the gravel rally.
I realy can't wait to do my first gravel rally ever.
The moment we got all the parts sorted out, we will start building ASAP...
Good luck to you guy's for the future rally's.
Dieter.

Hi Kenneth
I am now on e-mail with your cars first owner,or actually his son, they share first name and surname. He is very positive and will come back with some stories and hopefully some pics.
He remembers the car very well and drove the car in 1963 at the age of 16.
Could you PM me your e-mail adress, i have lost it?
