Donegal. Where do i start?! What a "feckin unbelievable" weekend and what a challenging event. From two long days or recce last Wednesday and Thursday to an incredibly slippy Friday, really fast Saturday and then the unfortunate retirement Sunday!
It really is a marathon event and what Manus and Donall have done is nothing short of unbelievable and with not a scratch on the car too!
We had a mixed event but showed good pace Saturday. I had forgotten just what a machine these WRC's are!
Our target was to be beating PJ McDermots S12B which we did and some of the middle field R5's such as Pauric Duffy which we did on some stages, even coming close to Rob Duggen and beating Eugene Donnelly on a stage. Not bad for a 15 year old WRC with no upgrades bar S12 Reigers.
Got caught out on slicks on Fanad Sunday morning and had a fairly heavy slap. Still fair stiff today but if thats all we have then we are lucky. Damage on the car looks worse than it is and the Biggerstaffs are commercial body repairers so wont be a bother to them.
There was an awful lot of damage done over the weekend in general!
Thanks for the pic Adrian.
