Rally is finished. Tarabus tried a massive attack in the last stage but it was not enough and Pech wins by just 3 seconds. The rest was nowhere near. Third Odložilík looses four minutes over 160 km (one stage was canceled because of oil from car of Kalista). Triner retired due to broken engine from 2nd place in 2WD. 29 crews finished.
1. Pech (Mini S2000) 1:30:38,7
2. Tarabus (Fabia S2000) +3,8
3. Odložilík (Fabia S2000) +4:00,5
4. Jelínek (Fabia S2000) +4:37,3
5. Štajf (Impreza STI gr.N) +6:04,1
6. Votava (Evo IX gr.N) +7:25,4
7. Trojan (Evo IX gr.N) +8:01,3
8. Mifka (Evo IX gr.N) +8:11,3
9. Peták (Clio R3) +8:50,9
10. Černý (208 R2) +10:10,5
19. Immonen (C2 R2) +15:17,0
In Rally Vltava it was Jensen dominating the event from start line. Today Jiří kalista (Legacy RS) was fastest but his engine broke and the oil on the road caused cancellation of the stage. There were many retirements (only 36 crews finished). Some of the most important: Lars Myrsell (Porsche 911) crashed, Ernst Harrach (Lancer Turbo) retired with broken turbo, Jan Krejča (Škoda 130LR) with broken gearbox. All crews with high starting numbers (including all Czech) also suffered from rather bad notional times on SS4 (in absolute standings).
1. Jensen (Lancia 037) 1:50:25,7
2. Pedro (Lancia 037) +28,9
3. Werner (Audi Quattro) +58,4
4. Wagner (Porsche 911) +1:45,1
5. Navrátil (Sierra Cosworth) +3:35,0
6. Petrášek (Ascona B) +5:05,9
7. Jansson (Escort RS2000) +7:15,7
8. Káňa (Sierra Cosworth) +7:23,5
9. Veikkanen (Porsche 911SC) +8:05,9
10. Hladík (Swift GTi) +10:46,2

Tarabus: http://www.mediasport.cz/rally/onboardy/4541.html (this is in my opinion one of the hardest stages in our championship)
Thanks Mirek, incredible stuff in slippery conditions...! SS11 extremely technical and at times narrow, many difficult corner combinations with zero room for error. Great drive from Tarabus. :)Quote:

Despite no DRS the entries are quite good and definitely spectacular. Jan Sýkora is entered with Fabia S2000!
very good entry list-i will be there for 100 percent.now i crossed my fingers for good weather.
I will be there too but I regret the overall worse route of the rally this year. Don't You know something about the new part of SS Václavice where on air maps it leads through a motorway building site? I have no idea how it looks there now, if it's gravel or asphalt etc...
Interesting to see Lappi on Czech stages! :) Already waiting for mediasport onboards... :D

Lappi takes second place from Sykora on final stage! :)
I'm back. I took it easy and watched complete field only on SS2/5 with a visit of a restaurant between :) Very nice places after all (especially SS5), pity those are only for one year till the new main road is opened. The weather made it difficult, a bit foggy, cold, light rain and a very dirty road. Especially where I was there were fast turns in opened fields with nothing to prevent cutting so You can imagine how it looked like :) You will definitely see them on videos, I saw Polish guys with video cameras there (maybe OES Records?).
Lappi was very impressive considering his experience on asphalt. It came to my mind that in March 2009 when I first saw Juho on our stages (Valašská rally) he looked definitely slower than Esapekka is now. For Juho it took just half a year to first time beat Kopecký on asphalt (Bohemia 2009). Let's see what Esapekka can do. The potential is sure there!
Sýkora was also good. In fact he looked faster than his times as opposed to Kostka who was very clean and tidy as always. From gr.N drivers Jakeš looked without doubts fastest. Some nice action also from the guys with high numbers. It's interesting that there was no retirement or big problem from top crews.
Final standings
1. Kostka (Fiesta WRC) 41:03,9
2. Lappi (Fabia S2000) +36,6
3. Odložilík (Xsara WRC) +39,5
4. Sýkora (Fabia S2000) +1:15,2
5. Kahle (Octavia WRC) +1:40,7
6. Jakeš (Evo IX Gr.N) +1:41,9
7. Dohnal (207 S2000) +2:55,8
8. Plíhal (Octavia WRC) +2:59,2
9. Tomaštík (Impreza S12B) +3:00,9
10. Małyszczycki (Evo IX Gr.N) +3:20,8

Both ;)

I can see You have Daňhel flying into the railguards. I was there in first run when Pokorný crashed in them but not so spectacular way.

Well, what to say ...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H232OU-Jm94
can t see it
The video is already private. I managed to watch it in time. It's sad that there is always such idiot. Thanks god it ended well this time...
dimviii: There is a narrow forest bumpy road, trees have a "forbidden area" sign on them. Some idiot is taking pictures of Lappi while crouching on the edge of the road. He steps aside only one or two seconds before the car passes him by.
It's possible to see the video now. "Idiot" isn't enough to qualify him :rolleyes: .
