Had confirmation from the MSA a few days back that il be able to run the car for the next 12months but it will be band for 2014, although no rules have been set in stone about straight cut boxes and the engine change ect...

The Rali Meirion... AWESOME! one of the best events iv ever done! weather was terrible rain and fog. but the event was perfect! next to no whites, plenty of droppers.

Not good then. What are you gonna do with the car after then? Sell it and buy something else? Or do different things in it? Shame as you have put a lot of work into it.

I see they are looking at bringing a new rule in to ban cars with converted drive layouts, like RWD mk3 escorts, RWD imprezas, stating that a car must be as it were from the factory, so all the impreza guys are going to have to leave their cars as 4WD and mk3 escort as FWD etc. Stupid fucking MSA!!! And they wonder why events aren't getting entreis? They're slowly banning everything, wouldn't be suprised if they took the long stroke crank out at the same time either, wankers!!! Car looks really good with you though.

Still going!
Video of lee setting a joint 3rd fastest stage time with Damien cole on the rally of the midlands, and came 9th o/a, ...... Safe to say he can drive the thing considering his power disadvantage!
