Hello Guys,
Good to see some Saffas on the Forum. :wave:
Looking forward to a good season with all the competition in the S2000 class.. :bounce:
Spoken to Visser today.. and from what I could get from the conversation both 207's might be in the race next weekend.. I'm sure to confirm it by next week. ;)
:)
Great news Ermis, and welcome to the forum BTW. I think we're in for a cracking season in 2011, certainly it's wide open, the nice thing being the privateers can take it to the manufacturer teams. I'm expecting big things from the Fords this year - we know Cronje is a winner, Rautenbach will be at the front and I know from a test session at the end of last year that Wilken has found some big gains. The Peugeots are a bit of an unknown at this stage, but if they come with setup info from the likes of Guy Wilks and Kris Meekes then it will help a lot. The car is capable, it's just a case of how long it takes the team to unlock the potential in the setup.
Thanks for the welcome!
Cracking season.. DEFINITELY!!
I'm going to agree with you on th Ford Teams.. Speaking to Jacques Wilken 2 weeks ago they are all ready for a big season. Definitely going to give Cronje the run for his money. :)
I've also seen the Ford Fiestas S2000 in action last year at the WRC in France.. really awesome machinery!!
Peugeots very capable vehicles.. but as you said the team just need to see the potential these vehicles can provide them..
Ai ai ai , and nothing about us poor guys in the RunX's :-) hahahahahaha
Its going to be good, but the adaption to left hand drive for some guys may play into Toyota, VW, and 2 Fords hands early in the season.
Sorry Grant, but not sure if even a hard charging RunX can keep up with the more modern stuff, unless your upgrades really do make a difference. I'd love to be proven wrong, lets see. I'm expecting a lot of offs on the Tour as I think the pace is going to be quite hectic.
Hahahaha Grant.. Will still be cheering you on! ;)
Watch this space chaps, we may make you eat your words. :-D
I predict no offs for any cars on this event... ok ok i wish for no offs, last year was plenty thanks.
Er yes, Grant, please don't repeat last year's stunt, thanks!
Besides, isn't it traditional for Mark Cronje to crash out while leading on this event? :p
Come now Bruce, it made for good tv ALL season long .. :-)
I expect to see a very focused Mark this year and if things within his team setup work for him , i think the factory teams have some issues on their hands.
