Very nice onboard. The manual gearbox and the effort by the driver to change gears adds a lot of value to an onboard video!

Here are few words from our trip to FRC Laihia. For me, this was by far the closest of the FRC events, but having a rock festival in the city at the same weekend meant I was a little tired 7AM in Saturday morning when my friend showed up :-) Anyway, we managed to recce two stages SS1 and SS3/6. First stage was very fast and flowing with nothing really distinctive place. On the second run of the stage Joni Nikko's average speed was around 128 km/h so that tells a lot. Nothing much to report there expect Jukka Ketomäki ran past us slowly and took a right turn on a junction left and drove home. His Octavia WRC just doesn't seem to hold it together. For second stage, SS3, we had found a nice place with a sight over two crest of which the second was a small jump, then on a left-hand corner with a lot of loose gravel at first. One Civic went off the line on the jump, ended on the gravel, lost grip and went fast into the ditch hitting over a rock. Crew okey, but some damage to the car. It was heavy stuff to pick up from the ditch with one off-place front tire and one locked front tire, no rope to pull with, etc. For the second run of the stage we watched top drivers at the same place and then walked a little closer to the finish on some nice S-bends. All in all, a nice day as it's always is at rallies.
Results wise, Nikko was surprisingly fast even if this rally was held basically in his backyard. Then again, SS2 which is local club's test stage and which Nikko should know well with or without glasses on, he was 3,7s slower than Nikara on 4,65 km stage. But clearly they were the two fastest drivers of the day. Also local Jukka Hiltunen in Fiesta S2000 was nicely fast. In 2WD Lindroos, Mänty, Pinomäki, Kinnunen, Vainionpää, always nice to watch. Off FRC3 drivers Lindroos was clearly fastest, but he was disqualified because he started SS4 too late because electronic main switch troubled. He drove SS5 and SS6 because the crew were not informed of the DQ at the moment. Fredrik Åhlin however was the fastest small 2WD driver, very close with Lindroos and Kinnunen all the time. Those times however are not fully comparable as for example Lindroos drove first (the first stages) and Åhlin was 41st. But Åhlin is fast, no doubt.
