Great hazards with multiple lines and good lengths
Had no breakages and no rolls so I'm happy. Dont think I can remember a rally in 5 years that had so much carnage in the pits at lunchtime to be repaired

Might have sold my truck, but couldn't keep away - ended up navi for my bro - but we were part of the morning carnage.

Too keen on the right hand pedal ran us hard into a bank and snapped a suspension bolt. Diff came back to meet the engine, driveshaft rammed into the T-case, Steering arm on hub twisted, panhard rod started talkin' to the front pulley - sparks flew... :cry: Might need a bigger bolt thru those suspension links eh...

So we walked and watched the rest of the day.

Just checked out the results online and see the top 3 trucks only separated by 1.55 points.

Only new to the game but imagine that must be some sort of record??
