George Woods Intro Trial

[DaveTrees]

Had a run in the Peugeot Car Clubs' "Geo. Woods" on Sat nite ..... a great event (now in its 24th year) which is a true "novice trial" in the Powelltown area.

Took Laurie Garth (of HGIMV fame) along for the ride ....

We finished, didn't hit anything, and didn't come last.

A highlight was being passed 3 times in the first section by cars who had started AHEAD of us on the road .... twice by the same car !

I like this "playing rally driver" thing ... it's good fun

Saw you go through Gilderoys Saturday night (was spectator Nazi for a night)

Only one comment about Erik - he is just too quiet!!!




Pretty good event from what I saw, especially considering what it was in the past.

Some good punters, that Datsun 1200 was an angry child



Real tired though, tried watching that other Erik (the Viking) at 2:30pm yesterday and ended up waking up just in time for work today.

Yeah i saw Erik go by too, and agree, he does seem a little quite.

On the "access control" i got, about 80% of cars were coming up hard for the turn left, but a couple of dudes, just kept the pedal on and went right instead.. To reventure back the correct way about 5 minutes later.. The Rover sounded good!

Had a run as 00 - good to learn a bit more about the other side of events! Got to have a good play in areas where there was up to 20k's between r/c's and found that I can still drive... unfortunately I can still break gearboxes too
Good to see you had a good night Dave.

Cheers, Matt

I didn't realise that Lucas made gearboxes ?
