Pukekohe Car Club Rallysprint Review

Thanks to our sponsors - Redhills Benz, Lauries Garage, Valvoline, STS Subaru Reckers.

Hi All

The weekend started bad.....the Kiwi's lost. Then on Saturday morning, I went out to the garage to start up the rallycar to move it out, after giving it a routine oil and filter change, and it wouldn't start.

And that was the end of that, we spent all Saturday afternoon trying to start the car, but to no avail.. so sadly we had to miss the Rallysprint...oh well, bring on the next event, which is the Day Night Rallyspring in Maramarua on the 4th August.

Pukekohe Car Club Rallysprint Preview

Well the next event for the season is upon us this Sunday 15th July, it is round 4 of the Woolf Muffler Rallysprint Series, at Naike. Top Seed and most likely to take out the event will be Marty Roestenburg in his Lancer EVOIII, and we won't know until the day who else will be there, but I am sure it will be a hotly contested round.

The event documentation and scrutineering is at 8am, with the first recce run to do the pace notes at 9:45am. So it will be an early start in Avondale on Sunday morning...yawn.

The Rallysprint is based on Waikorea Valley Road. To get there travel to Naike, take Woodleigh Rd, Matira Rd, and turn left onto Te Akau Rd. The road is a 8km nice and fast flowing stage...which will be heaps of fun for the Redhills Rallyteam.

THE FOCUS FOR THIS EVENT

Pace Notes. We will be doing pace notes again, our own, so we will be looking to get the calls right, and to be accurate on the first run through. Also I will be looking to rely on them a little more. Sam is great on the notes, so I just have to get used to them now.

Hopefully may see some of you there

See our next event here.

Cheers
