Photos from Otago Rally
Discussion
more gratuitous rally photos from me , its a great event. Classics, National Series and local allcomers running through the same stages (over 80 cars on the road) makes for excellent viewing.
anyway, overall top 5 results were:
1) Chris West - Subaru (STi '06)
2) Richard Mason - Subaru - only lost by 0.2 of a second!
3) Sam Murray - Subaru (about 2 minutes down)
4) Emma Gilmour - Subaru - The best female rally driver we've had in NZ I think, she's improved a lot.
5) Pasi Hagstrom - 1980 Ford Escort RS1800 (4 min down on West)
and now for the photos (have resized but may take a while to download)
fairly extreme wee 106 maxi - flared guards, LHD, 6-spd sequential. pretty quick little car.
A brave man - rallying a 2 ton, 7 litre V8, 540 bhp tank!
nice tidy Capri V8
theres a wee bump there...
Not the most common use for a '73 RS
the odd nice car sitting round service park too.
youn can't read it in this pic, but his number plate says it all - "SKID MK"
This mighty roller skate!
Pasi Hagstrom - Subaru WRC test driver and VERY quick.
Alex Fiorio - 1989 world production rally champ, finished 2nd classic.
Jimmy McRae - Won last year, was sitting in 5th or 6th when he rolled out on sunday.

...and some more:
Deane Buist - Christchurch escort-builder who always drives hard - 4th classic.
Mark Parsons - usually does pretty well in the Targa NZ.
Mike Turfus rolling the zero car.
Old Porsches just look good in black-and-white photos.
Jeff Judd - 3rd classic.
Mark Laughton's very angry-sounding V8 Avenger.
Last pic was just playing round with another photo making it look a bit arty, what do you think?
