Jim Clark Rally 2008

Great to see the continuing interest in the BRC :p : :up:

I'm heading down on Friday morning for a recce and forecast is currently to be dry for all 3 days. They are using two of my all time favourite stages (Abbey St Bathans) and the second half of Macks Mill is the shakedown on Friday evening :up:

Anyone else going? :)

[Rallyst3ve]

Unfortunately i cant go as its too far for me went to the Border Counties Rally this year and had to sleep in the car never again i think :p
It has a great entry i recon the National rally will be the best with Kynastons Audi A3 Quattro and lots of Metro 6r4s!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

[Frozzy]

national should be good i see theres going to be hopefully 2 BMW minis competing which should be good to see

I just realised last week that they'd changed the format from the usual Friday to Saturday event for the BRC to Saturday-Sunday.

Working nights this weekend, but will try to get down on Sunday morning after I finish to catch a stage and the finish I think.

They changed to format when they moved it to May, as it is the bank holiday weekend.

I reckon looking at the provisional times that I will just be following the Reivers on Sunday but can see them on 4 stages, they'll probably be better entertainment too :up:

Maybe see you about somewhere Iain? :)

Who's driving the N14 Subaru: is it David or Marc Higgings?

These are the R4 standing btw:
1) Marc Higgings
2) David Higgings +1:40
3) Stuart Jones +2:03

Which IMO is not a bad result for Stuart! What happend to Wilks? 'FIRE'?

It's nice to see that the BRC uses the right classnames: R5, R4, R3, ...

[farquar wrc]

David Higgins drive's the N14,it sounds and looks mint,changing my mind about the way these new Subaru's look

[HaCo]

Mint? :)

[farquar wrc]

Boland now in front of Mcnulty

[wwbroe]

Final result:

1. Boland
2. McNulty at 4"0
3. McHale G. at 56"9
4. Higgins M. at 4'26"9
5. Jones at 6'52"9
6. Higgins D. at 7'34"6

So Boland took victory from McNulty, passing him on today's second stage. Why was he today so much quicker as yesterday? Also good stage times for McHale today. Marc Higgins took victory in Gr.N ;)

[m.lowe]

Boland was playing a waiting game then pounced on McNulty
5th place for the MG of Stuart Jones

Pity that Tim didn't win . I would love to see him win an ITC event . The Championship is looking good for Eamonn Boland now .

[m.lowe]

Stuart Jones / Andy Bull took 4th after McNulty was penalised which dropped him to 11th and everyone moved up a place above him
