So it was him that bought Dom Buckley unit?
Yes. I'm not sure he will drive in Liezen with it though? Think the Evo.

He tested Fiesta today in gravel spec, so no :)

Ss1 rallye liezen (TER + OERM) starts now, you can find live results at the link above.
Neubauer won qualifying stage in front of Baumschlager (nr1) and picked nr3.
Basso so far quite slow compared what I expected or is it the car? Lim is nowhere but that was somehow to be expected...
i20 is not a great car.
Both the I20 and Lim seem to be behind the pace.
Yesterdays stages were a bit strange, 3 sss and 2 short stages with many junctions, chicanes, bicyclepath...Quote:

SS6 (oppenberg) will start at 9:00
Edit: and Basso 3rd after first stage today, great time...Neubauer still in fight for the lead.
Thanks, I can see a lot happened on Oppenberg. Mundl now in very safe position and Basso even third overall.
Neubauer puncture at oppenberg 2, Grössing crash at oppenberg 1.

at stage 11 Abbring retired from mechanical reason,Burri crashed and finally Basso won.
Pity Valais seemed to pass quietly this year; was a great privilege to spectate there a couple of years ago. Hope some good videos come out for it.
Edit: lots of good videos out there - that's my next half hour plus sorted!
I was there to spectate this year. And I must say that I was quite disappointed. With going out of ERC/IRC, they have reduced the itinerary a lot. I know that they must have shorter distance of kms, but they have "killed" the most beautiful stages like Crans-Montana, Bruson or Verbier. Also stage with famous jump was changed. Instead of it they did 3 runs through same road with three different length of stages...Quote:

From local drivers O.Burri, Carron and for me surprisingly fast Toedli. But from my older visits of this rally I have missed some good local drivers like Hirschi, Perroud, Gonon. Also level of 2WD was quite disappointment for me (especially to watch)...

Still 34 days to first event. No info on TER Historic too.
Giandomenico is in ;) with Fabia R5
http://www.terseries.com/en/drivers/
Is this a first for Basso? I don't remember him driving a Skoda before..
Pity he doesn't do ERC instead. There's no glory to be won in TER.Quote:

Transilvania Rally after 3SS:
1 Basso Skoda R5 29:56min
2 Tempestini +12s
3 Gartofan +1:07min
4 Marisca +1:16min
5 Pitigoi +3:09min
Why does Basso do TER? Is he paid by the promoter or is there some other kind of motivation?Quote:

Huge differences among the first 5 drivers. A bit ridiculous...Quote:

Using TER thread as it stands longer than national threads:
Rali Vinho Madeira, the 7th event of the Portuguese championship (5th of Madeira series), will be run from next Friday; great entry list and a big fight expected between CPR and CMR top crews and Basso (invited by Hyundai Portugal). Wagemans also there in a 208 R5, after a nice run last year on a R2. As usual, large TV coverage by RTP Madeira.

Not the big fight we were waiting for, still Madeira was a nice rally to follow. Local champ Camacho (Fabia) dominated since the first proper SS. Nunes (DS3) was unable to match Camacho pace and came 2nd. Fontes (C3) was P3, struggling to find a good setup with the new car. Lots of retirements, including Basso on the i20 (transmission). Btw, congrats to RTP Madeira for the TV coverage.

Only one R2 driver did all the TER events this year and one R5 driver did three of four. There were only these two present on Madeira. One with R2 and one with R5. What sort of competition is that?
TER has failed as a rally series but somehow it helps promoting the events. Probably that’s why Ypres, Madeira and Valais organizers are still TER partners.
Btw, it’s a pity the national European rally thread of the forum doesn’t work properly. Is there a chance to have it fixed? If not, why can’t we make a national rally news topic on this (ERC) thread?
I think that Ypres is there because of Alain Penasse.Quote:

So it seems there are some organisers that saw that this championship is in really bad healt and quit, as Madeira says in this comunicate also Ypres is out, surprinsingly for me there is a spanish event entering, Rallye de Ferrol.
