ROUND TWO TWYFORD WOOD. 27th May 2007

A very wet Twyford wood was the venue for round 2 of the Peugeot 205 challenge, having never been to the venue before but hearing loads of war stories about the place I just wanted to get going and going we did.

SS1 Nice and steady, picked up a puncture at the end of the stage dropping a bit of time.

SS2 Clipped a curb or hole which pushed us towards a small tree although no panel damaged somthing was not right and the car felt very unstable and noisy, ah punctured front and a broken/lost

Well we got of to a bad start at Driffield !! At the start line we were warned of the dust into the chicane along the back straight, umm to much speed to much dust, missed my braking point, the back of the car stepped out and we nudged the hay bail side ways, no big problem it had happened to lots of other crews, but when reversing in the dust I managed to whack a sturdy sign post causing quite a bit of panel damage, Then straight into a long sweeping right hand bend the car spun 180 and stalled dropping loads of time.

We ran the C2 on the Pirelli International this weekend. Our first competitive outing in the car and since our test we had made some changes to the car.

The first four stages were run on friday night and we struggled to find any real speed in the car but were lucky when many of our C2 rivals had problems and we emerged 5th in class and leading the C2 cup.

First Time Out
