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.
