Back from the NW Stages!!! We finished!!! - 18th Feb 2007 4:58pm
Well, got back from the NW Stages this morning, after a long and hard Saturday of rallying.
Got a decent result, finished 29th from 120 starters over 23 special stages, though nearly 1/2 dropped though mechanical problems, accidents, or running out of time.
Car ran superb all day, though we did have a few incidents including going up on 2 wheels, a few punctures - one of which sent us in to a pair of posts on my side of the car, and an off at about 80mph through a field and clouting a man hole cover - yes that did knacker the wheel lol
Anyways, heres a few pics - didnt really get time to take many as I was in the car from 8am to 8pm with only a couple of piss stops lol
Car when we had arrived:
Wheel following the "off" with the man hole cover:
Damage from posts:
And heres a few randoms, inc one of a Bugatti Veron we spotted on the way home
