Hope you don`t mind me posting these here ?. I was going through some photos from Oulton TA and Snetterton TA. I was there supporting my mate Duncan Graham in Club, but found a few pics of you I`d taken.

Awesome project !

absolute legend, father and son clearly are going to have a permanant name in not just ford history, but rallying history... rightly so as well.

Was wondering this too, also is Charlie competing this year? Andy got his license back now, still planning to go rallying? Did you ever fit those carbon doors you got?

Carbon Focus is 1019kg and 802bhp if my memory serves me correct. Fiesta wasn't up to much last year, both Focus were miles ahead in every race.

According to the website for the company that built the Fiesta its 650hp so realistically doesn't stand a chance against a 800hp car of similar weight
