Atlantic Adventure

It's still all go!

This time Goodwood festival of Speed the reason. It's now a firm date in the diary and you don't want to miss it, what an awesome event it is! The run up the hill climb and the loose conversation between old friends and new is great. It's a great catch up but also fantastic to demonstrate or Peugeot Super 2000 in front of appreciative and knowledgable people as well as people green to motor sport! 

Now we find ourselves sat in the middle of the Atlantic.... Luckily there is a few rocks to plonk ourselves on!

They are called the Acores, I've never been here and I guess I'm not the only one in terms of tourists. However this week on a rare occasion we find ourselves as the 'new boys' when it comes to this rally. Not something we are phased by although we will have to rely on experience and use our heads to do a clever rally.

This rally is very unique in terrain in that the stages/roads are very narrow and lined by high earth banks, walls, shrubs, hedges and one stage takes us around the lip of a Volcano!!..... Inactive they say!!

Watch for the tv coverage on Eurosport this rally has some of the most spectacular scenery you will ever see a rally car negotiate!!

So thursday am is shakedown and rally start on the evening with three stages that night. It will be massively important as the top five overall will be reversed for each day thereafter and hereroad position is very important. The surface can hinder the first few cars, so seeded at fourth we have to get on with it straight away to get a good road position for friday!!
