Me too

Been doing a few odd jobs on the BX including fitting twin cooling fans. This now means I have a spare electric one so may see if I can bodge it onto the 360 to get rid of the viscous affair!

the only reason he's taking the 15's off is because lastnight we were going down the road along side eachother doing 70mph in 5th.....both floored it at same time and i was pulling away from him

LOL

btw i like the bit about the bridge
i've had a few moments on bridges before,1 in the v3 and 1 in my bro's manta
my brother has a habbit of calling corners wrong or slowly on purpose,especially when he knows the cameras are there !

are you registerd on british rally forum ? www.britishrally.com

Looking good!!

Unfortunately there were no cameras out friday night as it was just a 12 car, but hopefully I can get some action shots later in the year - I tend to go a bit nuts when I see a 'Foto' board on events

Not registered on that one. Is it any good?

I really envy you as rallying is so easy to get into in your place

But stories from rallying is always great to read, so thank you from posting some news from these events

yes its very good forum,18 different sections from forsale to photography and the road rally section is very good too. just register and check for yourself !

Damn the grey GLT is looking great - grey wheels and it'd look even better

Photos would be great - but glad to heard of 300s being rallied, Carl you'll have to let me know how you get on with the stiffer front springs and new shocks - I'm planning on doing the same shortly.

Bah, I should have been in that 12 car My nav got his days confused

I've never been that struck with the BRF, too many discussions seem to degenerate into bitchy politics....

the M&H rallying forum is usually much friendlier - forum.mandh-photography.co.uk

The suspension should have been sorted for this event, but due to some water pump related issues I never got round to it. Will get it done soon though and will let you know.

The M&H forum is indeed very good, although I dont look at it much these days as I havent been doing many events

Thought rallying would be easier to start in Finland-we seem to get loads of vids to watch of Fins hurling stuff into the scenery
Mainly in woods though.
Just finnished Ari Vat's autobiog-good read-didn't realise he was so depressed for so long

Just drink lots of milk and have a go-seemed to work for AV

Good luck if you give it a blast.

Well, if you are farmer's son, then it is rather easy as you can practise on your own land, but still it requires loads of cash as car needs some serious work to get accepted (It is impossible to enter with road car), then all necessarily equipment, transport (as you can't drive to rally event because all those modifications required), we are looking minimum 6-10 000€ to get into first rally.
Also you need to get license and to get one it is needed to travel again as here is no courses/test available, will costs several hundred again.
