"The day was good apart from we broke the steering rack in the second section and lost about six minutes. It was really hard to get the car to come out those last few kilometres as the front wheels were pointing out and we had to shuffle round some tight corners". | ||||||

There we no real problems. The way to go fast today was to avoid the punctures. The steering became loose on the Porsche 911 during the last section so I had to go slow. There was still a problem from yesterday with its fixing. The stages are great. Luckily I have Marcy clearing the road for us. | ||||||

The clutch cable of the Porsche 911 failed in the first section but they were second fastest in the second section. "We lost a lot of time", said Dor, "And we only had second and fourth gear for those passage controls on the Delamere Estate. But we fixed it and it was fine for the second section. I think we did a good time". | ||||||

We had one really phenomenal piece of luck, one of those things that happen so rarely on rallying. At the Corner Baridi service the two halves of the service crew each thought put eighty litres of petrol in but in fact neither had. I thought the gauge looked a pessimistic so I said stick another twenty litres in. In fact that was all we had and the car ran out of petrol approaching the end of the second section. We just mad it into control but then had to push it out of the control. We were so lucky. | ||||||
