Well it was the 1st round of the BRC at the weekend and the first running of the event without the WRC Cars
think I'll reserve judgement for the time being
The weather didn't help either, after a fantastic week I was met with cold grey skies when arriving at Rally HQ on Friday and again early on Saturday morning in Kielder forest and apart from some sunny intervals that is the way it stayed all weekend
Colin McRae & Nicky Grist in Colin's MKII Escort
MKII Expert Steve Bannister
JWRC Driver Guy Wilks & Phil Pugh
Mark Higgins making a splash
Allister McRae was also competing
And finally the winner of the International Event, Ryan Champion & Craig Thorley
Cheers
Ian
I went on saturday in the Bower area. The Mk2's were great. There was huge dissapointment for a moment when McRae stalled it on his way through as everyone wanted to see him in action and then when he got it up and running there was cheers.
. When he came through in the afternoon, I was the only one at the junction, don't know why Nicky Grist is looking at me though. The watersplash ones were from P-Zero, I made a flying visit on Sunday afternoon to catch the internationals through.
