It took another day to me to find the suitable roads. My choice of roads were very good to learn but they wewre also very technical. My customers did not like that because I was driving better than them and they got tyred. It seems that they did not want loose face.A) I was quicker in their own cars and they did not want admit + they were get tyred.So they wanted to go to this special stage to practise more. So we were now in the start of one of theyr famous stages. He was speeding his engine at the start line and at the same time desperantly knacking this prayer wheel(wher are 33 knackers to send message to Allah,you are the best.) This point I asked "Surely the road is closed" His answer was not,but don't worry, Allah is with us. I looked aroud and said same time stopping engine."Newsflash.Only two of us here and very soon just you when I opened seat belts and jumped out. Next he went flat out into the distance and I coud see he was not braking over the crest doing well over 100 miles/hour. Two minutes later this Hyanday bus came over crest!!!
    I am not hurry to go there again. Are you?
    I have also experienced so many "too-close-too-call" experiences in the arab world (non rally related). I just got feed up with their mentality, and I am so done with traveling in that part of the world.

    Pentti,

    You want humour ? I'll write your biography. Hell we can have 2 versions, one Rated R one Rated PG13. I only have one condition, you have to come to US and be a part of at least one California Rally Series After Rally Party. After all David Sutton survived one, you can definately be the PartyMaster.

    I have about 30 photos from that party, even looking at them gives me a headache.

    As far as laptopers are concerned, I believe there are 2 kinds of them, those who work with the driver and those who work with the car. The first ones are the good ones, the second ones are the ones who believe we are out there to destroy the car they built and that we don't know our buttholes from a hole in the ground. They try to mold us into their ideal and when we give them our input they thik we are undermining them and get all defensive.

    One reason to this driving are the philosophy that your desteny are desided, and nothing you can do can do anything with that. So wether you drive saftely or not wil not involve your chances to become old.
