Haha, you and me both! If I do, my party parrots will be replaced with sad parrots...I sincerely hope you won't run off at T1 or something now
Woo hoo, first one finished
I went in expecting to only do a few and then have a break, but I (thought that I) was doing so well I couldn't stopBloody! That was early! Well done!

Woop Woop, i am getting nervous now
Arrived at the first checkpoint without any real mistakes/problems car still 100%.
Really enjoying the driving the evo around the monte. Was a bit cautious on the ice/snow and during the mist as I've always learned the monte is more about survival than about pure speed. great stage selection and spacing between services so far.
Good job guys

don't, i need a sober teammate, you're our only chance of scoring points (and not a few). so: breathe deeply, and one, and two, and three, eaaaaasy does it.Woop Woop, i am getting nervous now
Just finished in my Kadett, my arms and legs feel like they're going to fall off, I made one mistake and lost about 25 seconds on a stage though :/

@Ole Marius Myrvold Should the Checkpoint from service A not be on Service B? As that is the end of the day
I'm still waiting to be added to the league, can not access the rally yet :/
Same here...
I only have certain evenings this week to get the runs in, and I am itching to get going
Just finished the "1st" day and a half of the rally, so all in all 6 stages to be precise.
Had a somewhat slow start in the old girl (131 Abarth) which saw me loose about 6-7 seconds to Kieran Poole and the Dutchman WildLion or something along those lines on the opening 2 stages.
After the night stages I had gotten my eye in though and kept up with Kieran on the following 4 stages, only loosing another 2 seconds while making a few misstakes (had a 90 degree spin to a stop in a hairpin on Ap. Col Turini - Descente and few other small ones like braking a bit earlier than needed and so on so for now I'm happy with where I'm sat
Looking to do the rest of the Rally tomorrow and my goal is clear, beat Kieran (since he is the only one I have as reference at the moment...) in the, it should be at least, faster car at this event.
Cheers and a more precise report to follow when I've finished the Rally

I made a mistake on stage 12 so you can make time then, lost like 25 seconds or so, you can make up a lot of time thenJust finished the "1st" day and a half of the rally, so all in all 6 stages to be precise.
