Winner of shakedown is Umberto Scandola - http://www.autosport.cz/clanek.php?cl=16515
Umberto seems to be in a good form the last rallies. Good for him!
Pech in the lead after 2 stages, although Kopecky and Scandola shared scratch on the first stage.
another 6,6 sec at 3rd stage Pech from Kopecky.
Kopecky is probably a little rusty, although he is still well ahead of Wiegand and Scandola..
Eager to hear times of Lappi!
Pech already 18,4 sec ahead of Kopecky..
Yes, and Wiegand, the great promise from VW, is allready 61 " behind the leader, or exactly 1"/km slower as Pech. Still some work to do for him.
Official Skoda's are looking great in those colors.Quote:

dont think that we will know any times.For sure skoda wouldnt like it.Its easy for them to measure part of stages to see how they are against competition,and nobody knows their time.Quote:

So in the end 1-2-3 for Skoda on their home rally. I think Pech had the legs on Kopecky here, but again Kopecky brings the car home in first position. It seems Pech has made a lot of progress with his Mini in the last 6 months or so though!
When the Czech guys get back from spectating can you tell us:
- Did Lappi complete the whole stage distance (and did he have any technical problems)?
- What were your impressions of the Fabia R5?
- Any rumours of his stage times?
Looking at the classic field, is it normal to have over 50% attrition? That's rather high isn't it?

No recommendations as I haven't seen any in the moment. Have to watch them in the evening...

Rally Krkonoše again changes date. New one hasn't been set yet. Old date canceled due to harvest works on two of the stages.
Maybe the date will not be changed and they will cancel the event...

Organizers of Rally Příbram finally confirmed that the rally will be held despite all difficulties. Good thing is that the best stage - Vystrkov is back.
Live results of Rally Pačejov will be available here: http://rally-base.com/2014/eplcond-r...-pacejov-2014/
SS1 at 8:50 tomorrow.
After some time I'm glad to say that I visited a perfect rally in CZ. Great battle till the last meter, nice entry list, spectacular places, quite friendly taping and marshals and what is probably most important a LOT of spectators :)
1. Tarabus (Fabia S2000) 41:59,5
2. Kahle (Fabia WRC) +0,3
3. Odložilík (Fiesta R5) +4,8
4. Orsák (Fabia S2000) +14,3
5. Tomaštík (Impreza WRC S12) +31,0
6. Sýkora (Fabia S2000) +37,3
7. Vlček (Fabia S2000) +1:02,5
8. Dohnal (207 S2000) +1:26,9
9. Kalista (Legacy RS) +1:53,9 (he had some troubles, but especially his 4th time overall on the last stage is remarkable!)
10. Zimmermann (Impreza STI N12) +2:02,0
15. Kopáček (Impreza STI) +3:03,2 (after 2 years long pause)
2WD
16. Peták (Clio R3) +3:05,2
17. Rujbr (Clio R3) +3:21,5
18. Černý (208 R2) 3:35,9
19. Vopatřil (Fabia R2) +3:38,5 (great performance!)
20. Kašpar (Octavia Kit Car!) +3:41,2
Some retirements: Trněný (Fabia WRC) - turbo, Hozák (Evo IX) - crash, Smékal (DS3 R3) - crash
On the other hand Pačejov confirmed the trend that rallysprint events are much nicer for spectators than common MMČR ones.
