Hi Neal doing good and you?, as for the car we have done a few events tlast year and we have had some good results and a DNF due to a broken gearbox but thats the luck of rallying






No where near as good as Kermit but will you be using Kermit this year instead of the scoob and what events are you doing down this way ?


You could always do the craven Longcross event on the 19th Feb before you sell the scoob I might be there as well http://www.craven-motor-club.co.uk/l...otointroLR.htm


And stick the scoob on http://www.rallytrader.com it's fee

Slippy wasnt the problem mate...it was the dense fog around the fast bit at the back of the circuit..quite scary for the first 2 stages..

Good job we were running our new AP 6 pots, they were needed a few times...lol

I have seen some photos from 5th place holders Stuart and Theresa,that they brought to club, he said it was entertaining to say the least

They would have been higher if the tyres they were using didn't fall to pieces on a couple of stages and they were brand new, all that was left on them was two stips on the outsides

Know what you mean about the tyres!!! We came in after one stage of sliding around and noticed that we were running on the wire braiding on at least 3/4 of the front nearside tyre...It was fine on the stage beforehand.

Was Stuart in a Yellow MKII escort with a vauxhall engine and sequential box?

If it was, then we were talking to him last time out at Oakington....

Oh and a free BTTT for Neil
