Great effort guys :thumbsup:

Wow, nice work guys!

Top work fellas, wish we were there to run against you both! :)

Needs moar trumpet blowing!!! :D

 

Congratulations guys, well driven & it makes all the hard work preparing very worthwhile!

Also makes a difference when you can drive and fabricate to the level of these two.

 

Aw i hate that!!!

They deserve it after all the engines and troubles they went through in the beginning stages of the reshelled car..

 

They certaintly do,I rest my case.

.I guess one or both will be at the wrc Justin?

Thanks for the kind words Rob.

Iam running the celica in the classic section of the WRC in a few weeks. I did ask Tony at Bago if he was going to compete but he said no.

It should be a great event, and for me, a once in a life time chance to compete in the same rally as the world champs.

It will be great to run directly against people like Neal Bates and Ryan Smart and the rest in the ARC classics.

Drivers briefing will be very surreal

 

Cheers

Craig.

Well done guys!

 

We sat it out in the Woolshed, hopefully to have the car ready for the rallysprint down there later this month.

 

Great video!! All 2nd-3rd-4th from the look of it, so all those other gears are wasted! Up for a 5.1diff??

The Celica is repaired, serviced, cleaned and preped ready to be loaded up for Rally Australia next week.

We have been seeded car 7 in the Classics.

Might even get 2 seconds of air time on tv if we are lucky.

Very cool. I think I may have met you many yrs ago when I was helping Peter Stringfellow with some scrutineering at yaraman rally? I think the celica was at its first outing or very close to it?

Nice!! How come you got two terratrips?

Yep, I know Stringy well. Yaraman was a great rally venue.

 

Thanks Rob. I built it as a copy of the works safari cars which had 2 trip meters.

I think they almost had 2 of everything fitted to keep the cars going during those African events.

2seconds! Well, you know how to get famous... a giant spectacular roll right in front of the camera! Unless you can get a kangaroo to run down the road in front of you when the cameras are around...

 

Good luck- car looks great!
