not too sure Mark, but i know Russ with a 7-800 bhp evo was in his group.

some very fast scoobys and evo's in the same group,which did do well in the dry.

John has all the results and his positions throughout the day....even the final he was in with all the big boys cars.

i thought the zen impreza was the one that was going to take it-was a second quicker than olly's every time i timed them-mind you there was a lot of comotion in the clarke pit just before the end-new tyres(on the carbon fibre wheels!),etc etc so he must have sneaked a real flyer in.

awesome car and immaculately presented.reminded me of the jc impreza in some ways.............

I think it is a real shame that there are no Fords competing at the top level in TA, especially considering the amount of top spec Fords knocking about....

Glad the Zen car did well, as I did a bit of work on it..
