The Z car in a mud hole on Day 2 |
Today's stages were high speed blasts following fence lines on properties. If you went off it was generally into a paddock with nothing to hit. Our first effort in the first stage of the day had us so far into a paddock of lucerne (tall green stuff) that we couldn’t be sure which way to go to look for a road.
Stage 3 was extremely fast in places and Mark had the car on the rev limiter in 5th on a few of the straits but our Belgian friends from the London to Cape Town rally (in the Porsche) still took nearly 2 minutes off us. The GPS says our max speed was 187 kph and I’m inclined to believe it.

Stage 4 was memorable for a man playing bag pipes at the start and a high speed spin in a bog hole which scattered spectators and dumped so much mud on the car we could see nothing but the patch the wipers had cleared.
Results so far:::
