Sorry, I am in a poxy modern thing. A silver Subaru WRX wagon. Should be easy to spot, as there isn't too many wagons rallying... But we only run on the 2nd day of the rally, rather than all 3 days.Quote:

Nothing wrong with that, theres plenty of room to carry spare wheels and tyres if you get a puncture, and anyway, the wagon is cheaper to insure :DQuote:

janvanvurpa - I have mostly had issues with overheating, bearings and rings with Subarus. I blew a large number of motors in my last Subaru rally car, until I rolled it and wrote it off. I have now switched to a Nissan GTR to do tarmac events, so this is a one off driving a Subaru and I sure have no one eyed love for it! I will just be happy if we can get through a rally for a change, as me and the owner built it in his shed together.
Jari Ketomaa (Ford Fiesta RS WRC) will compete in New Zealand...
Awesome news :DQuote:

Made a mistake... first two days of rally, stages are 1.5 and 2hr drives away from Auckland... I booked all accom in Auckland so Nice and Early drives for me in the morning to get to stages! Could have booked in Raglan and Whaengrei or something.... oh well! Me not reading the maps properly!
Yep will be an early morning on Friday, Whaanga coast should be worth it but!
