Just waiting for live timing to start for the Saturday Stages, live timing available on http://www.rally.com.au

After stage 4, Simon Evans leads in a Toyota Group N(p) from Dean Herridge, with Neal Bates in 3rd. Good form from the Fiesta Super 2000 with Guest beating Bates on stage 4.

Guesty has been showing some good speed in the Fiesta. Up to second during the second heat. Although he seems to be slower on the second pass over the stages.

Bummer about Brendan Reeves going off on the last stage, he was sitting in 5th at the time.

The Fiestas are showing a very good performance today! Beating the Toyota Super 2000 several times. The total result is not bad either, 4th and 5th both days, very good!

Except for Simon's dominance in the older Toyota, the entire field is very very competitive.
It is great news that Ford has a car capable of taking the challenge to Toyota. Dean is as consistent as ever plus a whole charge of new young drivers.
It was a shame that Eli had his off yesterday. Does anyone know how severe the fire was in his car? Had thoughts of Kevin Shaw with that newsHappiness is using the side windows more than the windscreen

Just seen Joel's pictures of Eli. Thankfully not too major but still heart breaking for the young hard charger.

Free spectating sounds good, they should do that at all ARC's to get the crowds back. The amount of money made from spectators is just about enough to cover the printing of tickets and getting people to sell the tickets.

Never any cost to spectating in Tassie & the locals loved it. Allowed for hundreds of them to rock up last year & take an interest.
In NZ, the spectating was free except for the Super Specials & for SS1 Whare Flat. By the way, it was $10 for Forsbury Park. $5 for the street stage & Whare Flat. Hardly broke the bank. Plus you are not confined solely to spectator areas in NZ.
Alot cheaper than the $25 a day charged in Queensland but the kids under 12 was free. I had two in tow.Happiness is using the side windows more than the windscreen
