| Date: | 17/8/12 |
| Day: | 1 |
| Special Stage: | SS3 Glendun (6.62 miles) |
R1. Keith Cronin (IRL) / Marshall Clarke (GBR) - Citroen DS3 R3T
We put the slicks on for the last two. It's a lot more manageable. I want to make some changes at the rear.
R2. Tom Cave (GBR) / Craig Parry (GBR) - Citroen DS3 R3
A frustrating three stages. I'm mentally questioning myself. It's not quite clicked as it did on the Jim Clark.
R4. Elfyn Evans (GBR) / Philip Pugh (GBR) - Ford Fiesta R2
Bumpy stage, not what I expected really.
R3. Mark Donnelly (GBR) / Dai Roberts (GBR) - Renault Clio R3
Very fast, not much to it. We can hopefully sort the gearbox in service.
R5. Alastair Fisher (GBR) / Daniel Barritt (GBR) - Ford Fiesta R2
A slow start, quite bumpy. More attacking and a better feel for the next loop.
R6. Guy Wilks (GBR) / David Moynihan (IRL) - Renault Twingo R2 Evo
Very bouncy. We pushed quite hard but know we can develop the car to make it quicker.
R8. Desi Henry (GBR) / Barry McNulty (GBR) - Citroen DS3 R3
A steady run, quite an average time through there.
R9. Jonathan Greer (GBR) / Gordon Noble (GBR) - Citroen DS3 R3
Not bad.
R10. Osian Pryce (GBR) / Iestyn Williams (GBR) - Citroen DS3 R3
Braking too early. There are a few changes to be made before the next loop.
R12. Jukka Korhonen (FIN) / Mikael Korhonen (FIN) - Skoda Fabia R2
I was a bit careful and we hit a rock on the last stage.
R16. Callum Black (GBR) / Paul Wakely (GBR) - Citroen DS3 R3T
Just dealing with the wrong tyres really.
R14. Matthew Cathcart (GBR) / James Morgan (GBR) - Ford Fiesta R2
I enjoyed that more than the other two stages.
R21. Chris Ingram (GBR) / Stephen McAuley - Renault Twingo R2 Evo
I can't go much faster without going off!
R23. Niko-Pekka Nieminen (FIN) / T Suominen (FIN) - Ford Fiesta R2
The road is really fast, taking a lot to learn.
R24.
That was ok, a bit slow to start with.
R25. Gethin Jones (GBR) / Kevin Devine (GBR) - Ford Fiesta ST
It was bumpy in there. I think I need to go softer.
R26. James Grint (GBR) / Craig Drew (GBR) - Citroen DS3 R3
I'm still struggling. The rear is quite sketchy
R30. Arron Newby (GBR) / Martyn Taylor (GBR) - Skoda Fabia R2
Really good in there. It was a shame that Torr Head was cancelled for us.
R33. Alex Parpottas (GBR) / Chris Davies (GBR) - Ford Fiesta R2
Good, we're having to follow the same cuts as World cars which was interesting.
R32. James Ford (GBR) / Neil Coleman (GBR) - Citroen C2R2 Max
Mint was that!
R36. Garry Pearson (GBR) / Craig Wallace (GBR) - Renault Twingo R1
This is frustrating. I can't push.
R37. Steve Rokland (NOR) / Tom Andre Haldammen (NOR) - Ford Fiesta R1
Still good. Fast bumpy and a bit wet.
