A so important event in the BRC as the Ulster Rally, running from today, and no thread, no messages from you on the forum ??? :confused:


Anyway, the live results page Results - Main Index (http://results.djames.org.uk/results/?m=39) ;)

But how the hell Elfyn Evans is doing in a "smaller car" to be so fast compared to the R3 drivers :confused:

Wilks not matching the best R2s on the first two, will he once he get the car to his liking?

Put Elfyn in a DS3 and then watch what he could do. He needs FFSA backing :-)

Kumpumäki heavy off on SS2, car destroyed, guys rather okay.

"Season over now. Looking forward to 2013." :/

I saw that Kumpumaki said "thanks to HANS we are just about ok" - big one.

Or he needs to change is name to Evansen.....otherwise I can't see him raising the money for backing, sadly. He's a real talent. Drivers from GB & Eire seem to be at a disadvantage. Cronin is another.

And this saturday morning again: Evans only 2" slower than pace setter Cronin on SS7 :mark:

Cronin and Evans are two guys with real potential, they both deserve the chance to try and progress, but sure Elfyns Dad showed huge promise and never got a decent chance to move up and on from the BRC.

Elfyn Evans best time overall on the long SS9 :eek:

Catastrophic rally for the Skoda R2, Korhonen retired on SS12 with mechanical problems, and was unable to catch lots of Ford R2s before that... :s

Two stages remaining...and Elfyn Evans still has a 1 minute margin over Osian Pryce ;)

Also Wilks seems to be struggling a lot with the set-up(??)of the Twingo R2(now Carthart is in front of him) :mark:

An news about Breen and the 208 ??? :confused:

End of 2012 Ulster Rally ;)
Keith Cronin wins without surprise, but man of the rally is without doubt Elfyn Evans who finishes 2nd overall(and far winner R2) :)
Osian Pryce almost lost his 3rd position to Tom Cave in long SS14, but still gets it...

Big blow for Renault who lost Mark Donnelly and Guy Wilks in that last SS14... :confused:

Pitty Tom Cave receives 50" penalty and fell from 4th to 7th... :(

Late at TC 12E - looks like too long in service judging by the time schedule in the itinerary.

Looks like EE has had a nice tarmac warm-up in preparation for Deutschland next week - can't see Suarez or Soares living with him and the rest of the Academy (apart from Fisher) likely to be also rans
