Just a few words about the Rally..........
Excellent, Really enjoyed it! Sitting in the passenger seat for a change with
my brother Bagsy in my pug 205. The first two stages were not a problem but
on the third stage, about two miles in on a 90 right, the throttle stuck open
and at one point we were heading backwards towards a ditch ........but fair
play to the old git he managed to pull it back. After that stage we went to
service and sorted the sticky throttle problem, then off to Bala we went.
Another hairy stage with all the fresh air drops but we got through with out
any problems. By this time we had moved to 3rd in class. We decided to perhaps
take it a little easier on the last two stages because we were made up with
that position...... but NO not Bagsy!....... on the last stage the horns were
out and he was driving like a man possesed! .....I didn't even have time to
look up from the notes and about a third of the way in we caught a subaru
and passed him! We finished that stage and then it was back to Ruthin for
a quick service befor heading back to the finish at Llangollen for the results..
to find we had finished 1st in class!... Great fun.
Thanks go to Gwyn Trackoff and Pete Duffy for servicing..
And thanks of course to Bagsy for good result.... any time BRO

Sadly, these might be the last photos

failed mid stage, about 5 mins after this photo taken! |
