    Good Luck with the Tour Phil, Especially Harewood Hillclimb in Reverse, its fast in the right direction, probably scary going down!

    I'll try to watch at some point, depends on the progress with my car..... the list is getting shorter, but still got the suspension to sort...

    Re: Tour Britannia

    Hi Mick and all

    We did finish........... Just............ developed a misfire on SS3 which I could'nt cure, neither could any of the guy's who tried to help, so we just continued with the hope of finishing, which we did........... and as we only picked up 4 minutes road penalties where all the rest were picking up plenty !!, Roger Kilty and Lynette Banks Mk1 Escort who won the event on "Index of Performance" was in in our class.... therefore according to the rules we were promoted to 1st in Class (5) and 13th overall in the Historic.

    It was extremely wet but a really good well organised event, pity our car "fouled up" so quickly but at least we were better off than one of the Porsche guy's who wrapped it round a tree only after 1/4 mile !!!!!!!!!!!!............ Ouch


    Cheers

    Phil
