I finished the whole season last year (7 races)

came second in class by 1 point to a sunny, it was tight for points between 3 cars and that made it a lot of fun

but i had a lot of dramas, and spent a lot of hours keeping the car running. I think i won a high percentage of the stages i competed/finished in, but didn't compete in enough to win the year in fact the last race was the only one that really went super smooth and the car didn't need major work after

so due to time factor i'm not competing this year (kitchen renovations became high priority)

i did do 1 autocross at geelong early in the year, the little datto still loves a good thrashing, actually there is a couple of nice pics, will try to get around to uploading

Nice lucky you straightened rail too. Your panel beater check it for damage too?

Good work mate

so, i have done 2 rallies this year, 1st ended in a crash at the spectator point

managed to bend one of the new chassis rails

but i straightened it out and strengthened it up in time for race 2 of the championship

i was a bit ginger after the crash (not scared, but scared of having to fix the car again!) and it was very steep up and down, so finished 19th outright - but more importantly got back in the grove and won the class

it's more fun this year with 5 in a-class (myself/starlet/swift/2 sunnys) and we are all on similar points now with 5 more races this year, i havent got many pics yet but will share when i do

nice work mick, much respect to you and your family's commitment to datto's and motorsport

DUDE,NICE!
bout time!! haha
Should be seeing you at neerim, see how i go, think my mate might be heading there too.
