National Rally - Autotest - Sunday 18 Sept.

 

Ian you won on all fronts!! You had Alan giving you guidance mate. Am working on Utube vids for the world to see your skills at work…Devil

So are you saying your navigator wasnt up to the job then, he was only navigating not pressing the loud pedal mate Dancing

 

 

Hmm I managed to get another driver down to 1.02 + 1.03 but he picked penaltys up for going past the cones…

And who managed to talk the Volvo driver down to a impresive 1.05…Thats quicker than my lap…But not as sideways or as Whiney…

 

Alan

1.07 for an auto good fun…seen results + 5 secs =1.02 stopped to far in the box at the end , autos rule Whistling

 “So are you saying your navigator wasnt up to the job then, he was only navigating not pressing the loud pedal mate”

Well Karen’s headband wasn’t so animated as Alan’s… Lol… Loud!! The exhaust note scared the birds out of the trees you were giving it so much welly!!

Utube about ready for run 1…

 

 Here you go Ian…

The world can see you now…

Thanks Fastphil, looking good Dancing

 

I really enjoyed the Autotest, thanks to all involved in setting that up and for running it.

I wanted a 2nd go as it was that much fun, but as I was in the last session they’d closed entry.

Managed a 1m 0.9s on my 3rd run, being fairly brutal on my poor car!

And you can find the full run down of the results here…

What an amazing day. 

Took a crack at the second last run and loved it so much went back for 2 more for the last run. Was one of the last runners too.

Thank you very much to the organisers. Most fun I’ve had in my car with my clothes on!

Ended up 8th overall but in the last session was pretty consistent and quite sideways so very happy with results. 

Definitely need more of this in my life! 

I just checked this and came 16th!! The Autotest was brilliant fun, it was the first time I’ve driven on grass and I’m very pleased with where I came, I knew I should have had another go!! Shame there wasn’t a ladies trophy Wink I’ll definitely do it again.

DanKent - I saw you go round, well done on 4th Big Smile

 Thank you to the Loughborough Motor Club - we all had a great time.

I’ve uploaded a load of videos to You Tube under the AurtolinkMX5 Channel - here’s the link:

I finished 4th overall. Could I have gotten quicker with a 2nd go? Who knows, maybe I just got lucky Wink

 Here are videos of Alan doing this stuff on Utube.
