did you see the highlights last night? what a rally. Marko Martin's sideways moment into that hairpin was unbelievable! I laughed my ass off when Gronholm pulled his door handle off!

Did you see the Police stopping one of those red 307's? I can't remember who was driving it but they pulled him over because he had illegal tyres or something. Could only happen in the UK like.

and just rifght they did too, they are under the same law as all of us and we can't get away with driving on the roads with wire hanging outa the tyre so why should a WRC driver ?

well done to Kevein Lynch on his 1st Rally GB and what a result for a man thats only been rallying 2 years ! also Meeke who done real well in his super 1600 corsa

 

[Recovery]

Fancy starting rallying two years ago and only being 13 places behind Carlos Sainz in a WRC event, gotta be impressed with that.

and to Kris Meeke, wanna see you in a WRC next year so tell young Colin M to re-mortgage the pad and get you a seat!!!
