As you may know I compete in a number
of Tarmac and Classic Rallies with my 2000 Sti, 65 Sunbeam Tiger and 1977
Datsun Stanza with an L20B engine and GTR Brakes and Gearbox) This
is the story of this weekends rally which is a complex navigational tarmac
rally. After three
years of Classic rallying we finally met our match in competing in the
Classic Rally Club's "South Coast Run" this weekend. Kim and I were
ready for the first two day classic this year in our 2.0 litre Stanza.
(the Stanza is booked in for a full dyno tune next week as I hope to see
it hit 200Km/hr at the creek on my next visit, last visit pushing out 91
Kilowatts ATW, I got up to a genuine 188Km/hr) The
Stanza went like a dream as we drove to the start point of Mittagong. (though
Kim was feeling a little off colour) Instructions were received and
the 33 competitors were off to Merimbula for the day Via Kangaroo Valley
and other winding roads. Unfortunately
weariness set in and and the traffic on the roads and obscurity of instructions
turned what should have been a fun weekend into a tedious and boring "are
we there yet" drive. Arriving
two hours late for our lunch time check in (as did over half the field)
we withdrew from the rally and went to dinner at our favourite South Coast
restaurant " The Waterside" at Ulladulla and spent the night at a romantic
getaway in Mollymook. " (Their 5 course and 5 glasses of South Coast
wine special is great and great value for $70.00 a head) Today
we raced back up through Kangaroo Valley (being held up by a silver 01
WRX) and to an early finish at home. So
we missed out on the rally, the go carting and all the other events being
held this weekend, but had a great meal and a few bucketfuls of fine wine.
The Stanza and more IMPORTANTLY our marriage are still together, ready
for our next battle. WANTED:
New Navigator (for when wife feels off colour) MUST be patient with
extraordinary mathematical skills and spatial orientation, prefer C3 license
and be real good.
