Looks like Martin & simon finnish day 2 in 11th place

Steve & Dave are 89th place
It looks as if Steve is now the driver I knew they were planning to swap
so guess thats what they have done

[Max]

This came from RDJ


Re: The Lombard Rally - 8-11 November 2007
Bad news, both our crews are out.

I have just spoken to Dave they are stuck 2 miles from the end of Sweet Lamb with broken front Suspension.

He could also inform me that Martin crashed out this morning.

It would seem Dave and Steve are still going which is good news for the R25

Just had text from Simon and the ZR which went like this It appears they went through deep water ie ford which' the engine took on water which caused ZR to go slow but carried on for a while then they had a slight off but from what i gather Martin was driving very very well and Simons words were thats Ralling for you

Guess there's always next year

No doubt he will post on the sportscar site once there are back

[Max]

Dave & Steve in the R25 have finished and guess when they have time and feet firmly back on ground will post up there events of this 4 day event and build on it for next year.

Well done
