i helped in some of the prep for the car, which was mostly done in one week...the car hadnt been touched in 4years so you can guess the hours that were put into to get it ready
it was my mate (trigger) first rally in four years.....he was so stoked to get it there.... 
this is the car, 1.6 twincam sunbeam...full rally spec ;D
hooking up at 7am sun morn ye gads it were early!!!!! up at 6....clocks forward = up at 5am it felt...
as it was MOD land it was a closed rally, mostly on tarmac, which had a really cool pit setup as it was in a circle to give a really cool condensed vibe..... the pits was full of all manner of cars! ex WRC imprezas to mk1 fezzas and 'scorts.... heres some of the entrants. and the really cool thing was compared to drag racing...when it rained they carried on and it made it more sideways fun than ever ;D
this rothmans influenced 'scort crashed badly on the day....written off...occupants taken to spinal injuries unit....cut the roof off to get to them, bent shell...so sad....
bunch of irish nutters in this corolla!!!! sideways red mist driving at every opportunity...completely bonkers...top draw ;D definite crowd pleaser....not much tyre rubber left at end of rally....
rally winner i think.....or definately in top 5...
there were 5 sunnys there on the day...most ive seen.... ;D
for darrenw and rainking....sweet sweet audi.....didnt even make the first stage...and never has finished a rally
must be jinxed..but it was artwork.....
