Ulster Rally Pics....
1st of all BIG BIG thank you to Tony (NUTS RuS) for the whole weekend & inviting me to service the Mitsi 
Early start for the Seacat.....
Car in question we were servicing EVO 5
Service Area.....
The EVO ready for action
We only got chance to see a few stages in between being chase car. Not ideal weather for a tarmac event
3rd in class and not one single problem.
Then 2nd to last stage, we was waiting at the finish. I noticed there was a gap and no Mitisi had come to the finish. Then Tony got the dreaded phone call.......
2 miles from the finish, the EVO had a slight off
Rolled 3 times off the bank & ended up the post in the field
Both driver and Co-Driver are ok & luckily its only panal damage
& one last pic to cheer us all up.......
Once again BIG thanks to Tony for the last 4 days 
Roll on the next Rally

Bit of bad luck for the boys Paul....
Rallying in Ireland is brilliant...
I see Mr Stone had a none finish in his new Hyundai.....
Not good for all the local crews.....

How we'd have found it, if I had a better map reader
Thank goodness the locals were very kind and friendly
Top weekend despite the result, but shit happens sometimes when your on a push.
Thanks for coming and slowing the chase car down a bit Paul
Glad you enjoyed the weekend

unlucky on the roll, but shit does happen, as long as there ok, once its sat on the jig all wil prob be ok once a few bent panels are removed, they always look worse like that !!

Which one he had 3 last time I counted kas
He put the Accent off again this weekend
1st time this car has had anything other than a new wing Carl, so it dosn't happen that often.
Is the Diva as good with a lump hammer as he is with everything else
The boot lid and spoiler survived intact so we have something to use as a point of reference. Getting panels for the 5 at decent prices is almost impossible

Some cool pics there Paul, shame about the end result though but this stuff happens I guess
Panel Damage though? Abit more than that with a wheel hanging off!

I am currently trawling some contacts to try and help with your panel crisis as well....

All help appreciated Rob
Wheel hanging off was a simple job Dan, bent bottom ball joint and new strut as it just ripped itself out of that one when it landed on it
Quick repair with a ratchet strap and it drove onto, and off the trailer in 3 wheel drive

Looks great - i saw the 94 Rally when i was over there years ago - and before in the 80's my aunties house was on a road with the stages on it 
Must get over again sometime soon
Circuit of Ireland and Donegal rallys are excellent to watch too
