Targa Tas 07

[WogsRus]

YEAH we made it through the prolouge, span out bigtime, cost us about 23 seconds, so if we didn't spin, we would have been about mid to top of feild. ATM we are LAST, so we start first today. DID some suspention work, to help the car turn in more, se how that goes.

Good work guys, best of luck!

[WogsRus]

just finished leg 1, what a releif, no times yet, small mistakes here and there, 5 people have retired from rookie class, leaving only 10.

[Minko]

Any idea what happened to the Skelta? Broken?

Times on the Targa website are a bit dodge

[WogsRus]

not sure, but the website is all over the place

[Trust33]

did duncan get the gearstick that he wanted??

[Duncan]

Yeah sorted, thanks...jb33 came to our rescue.

We made it through our first targa day in 1 piece, w00t! Car was very taily especially in the wet with all the tight corners, it is much tailier than it is on a racetrack. Great fun though, should be some good pics

But we still have a missfire that is shitting me, changed the plugs and ignitors (did the coils and afms yesterday), hopefully it is sorted now.

[WogsRus]

The dan times doen't match, we passed 4 cars during the day in stages, and still started 16th this morning. is there anyway of finding out correct time. The website still doesn't have correct times posted.

yeah I just got the call a few mins ago, but didn't want to post anything. thought I would leave it up to duncan, but it's out there anyway I guess.

sad news indeed. but very pleased they are both ok, so they can come back and tell us all about it over a beer.

[WogsRus]

[WogsRus]

[Trust33]

Thats no good boys..I was hopeing to see at least one of you make it through in one peice.GL for next year.

BTW:How fast were you going,what did you run into and whats the damage of both cars?

At least your all ok.

[WogsRus]

Not sure what happend, i'm just managing the team and built the car, as i was unable to drive or navigate due to personal issues (WIFE)

So Today i had to be in hobart, recived a text 10 minuts after it happend, got on the UHF to the CROW, the stage official, and no good, can't get trough, phones off, service crew is there, waiting for a report back.

We didnt come all this way to retire already.
