stage 1; Hit an enbankment & ditch damaging and pulling out half the wing, but managed to drive out.
got a puncture & by the time it was safe to stop the whole wheel had disintergrated into what looked like a frizby leaving a mess of wires to cut off before we could put on the spare.

stage 2; The bonnet flew up, so we had to stop & shut it. Then another puncture .

Stage 3: soon into stage hit a rut on a sharp bend & the wheel broke off, wheels studs littering the track with the threads torn off. Continued with 3 studs on each wheel.

Then we missed a bend & everso gracefully rolled the car onto its roof, neither of us hurt. A marshal had sprinted up to check on us so we enlisted his help in rolling the car back onto its wheels. & off we drove! pausing briefly to kick out the smashed windscreen. we donned our sunglasses as makeshift visors & enjoyed the cooling down that the shower of rain gave us.

back in service2 everyone rallied around lending wheels & goggles, a temporary windshield, tools & helping hands. The support was fantastic & we're very grateful to all the people who helped.

Stage 4; No mishaps although we did find another puncture on return to service3.

Final Stage 5; we were flying ! really looking forward to a finish after such a hectic day when..... 2.34miles from the flying finish....... ....... ....... the gear box seized & that was the end of the rally for us! arrghhhh!
out of the 120 cars which started only 67 finished !

A great big thanks again to Pat, Carol & family who crewed for us. & all the other crews who lent stuff & helped out, the marshals whos cheery faces at all the time controls spurred us on & Coltness Car Club who organised this great day.
