That's no good... any ideas what happened?

The oil pressure switch broke off the block, therefore puting the oil from inside to outside, and engine doesn't like no oil. :insane:

 

They were doing super well, including ninth outright on one stage. Who says you need a Porsche to do well.

 

Major, major bummer.

 

No rest for the wicked though, because Datgirl comes back and navs for me at Gallangowan next week. A slight change in pace me thinks.....

bugga ey...darn..

Awww thanks guys, I didn't realise this thread was happening!!

 

It was SUPER HEAPS fun, not scary in the slightest, damn my man is FAST!!

 

We were so excited about getting better and better - compared our $15K Escort to the $80K+ cars we were starting to beat. We can't wait for next year, we're definitely going back. Adelaide itself is beautiful and the rally takes you around the gorgeous countryside. Rallying is the best way to see Australia!!!

 

Thanks again guys.

I know!! I love that Kaplan car, it was definitely one of the most horn bits of gear in the field. Although there were lots of horn bits of gear out there (read $$$). Can't beat the sound of BDAs (yes, there were more than one, yes there were more than 3!).

 

Indulge me (again), name dropping time. I met:

 

- Jack Brabham (he's soooo deaf but he's allowed to be at 80-something)

- Eric Bana (GORGEOUS!!)

- Steven Richards (LOVELY!!)

and, ofcourse, my all time favourite - Gentleman Jim Richards *sigh*

 

It was way WAY cool.

 

Thank you for your time!!

Classic Adelaide is on Telly today (30/1) at 1600hrs, should be good, look for Mel and Paul spinning on the Prologue.... :D

thats 4pm for the rest of us.... on channel 10 (!!!)

 

I shal be watching....

That was pretty cool :D Thanks for the heads up, Rob :D

 

So many esky's. Looked to be a super rally!

recorded.....yep all 195mb.... huzzar for TV Tuner cards.....

At least two appearances by them, too!

3 actually! I am VERY excited. On the opening sequence and on the corkscrew stage. The commentator was saying "lots to see" (insert footage of Commodore) and "lots to hear" (insert footage of US car 607 going very sidways around a corner with lots of noise!!).

 

The third was us just driving past very boringly.

 

Lots of coverage for our Silverstone Tyre sponsor!!
