Default Jim Clark Rally.....Pics

Few pics from the weekends event up in Scotland.....

Sadly got no pics from Friday as the camera played up AGAIN but once all fixed Saturday & a very wet Sunday was all ok...Enjoy

This was a tester pic to see if everything ok....clean tarmac


Then the rally began, 1st off the World cars followed by the GRP N






Little lock up


Check out the skid marks.....





After about 18 cars or so the stage was cancelled due to Barry Johnson having a heavy landing & his car was on fire so off to service....















What actually goes on inside a Subura World Car






Mr Finch's Silver Escort in the background




Tim looked to be enjoying the stages

Then back out to the stages & it's started to rain, hmmm wet tarmac & slicks





Oops.....










Tim....





A very wet Sunday.....






Quick trip back to service before leaving for home.....

Simmo in the Hyundai finished 4th O/A (in the Nationals), 1 minute behind the WRC Escort of Nigel Worswick, 19 year old David Bogie was second O/A in the yellow Metro 6R4 and the National event was won by Andy Fenwick in the Subaru (car 110) Tim finished 19th O/A (was up just outside the top 10 early on Saturday but then slowly started dropping back)

We had a little competition going on on the internet and digital radio for the event to who could get the most mentions

I came runner up with 5

Nice pics again Paul

The silver Hyundai is a local Manchester car Rob84, you sure its not another similar one your thinking of (Damian Cole) ?

JP was 5th o/a 2 seconds behind Simpson

He can still mix his older car with the more modern WRC cars

19 year old Bogie in his 6R4 was 2 minutes quicker than Price tho, but he has youth on his side now too

Im sure he will be at the Prom again - looking for another win

Lucky, yes but he can drive a bit

He crashed his Evo 9 on the Manx rally a couple of weeks back Only ripped a front leg off it, but that meant he had to use either the Metro, the 1.6 Corsa or the 1.4 Nova lol

John Stone appears to be selling up Paul, everything is for sale
Such a shame, one of the nicest local guys in the sport too
