Drystone Road Rally 1997
Result - 20th Overall
The last time that I penned an entry for Torque, I had just failed to finish the Auto-Windscreens, in line with a rather shaky start to1997. I felt sure that my run of bad luck could not possibly continue, but alas was proved wrong on the Drystone. After an almost perfect run, the diff gave way (for the second time in ‘97) on literally the last five yards of the last white on the last competitive section. I did manage to get a result by rolling/pushing the car for about 2km to the end of the section, but to have a definite top five position on a competitive ‘whites’ event reduced to 20th was particularly tormenting.
