94.448 Mph.

So glad you guys had such a great result. Really looking forward to the report. I think few people realise the work, commitment and expense that you have both put in to take one of "our" 35 year old cars and take it to the finish AND get a good placing... and you did it with your wife too! All in all this is a truly tremendous acheivment. Lets hear it for TEAM FAMILY ODHERTY!

That last action pic will be printed and hanging on a wall in my man-cave, because it's such a cool shot!

A little bit of incar. This is the Super special stage at the jetty foreshores. Steve and Hasbeen might remember some of this road, althought the barriers meant that we are on the wrong side of the road compared to normal.http://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?s ... 1441794389 [:D]

Troy you can't be spectacular enough mate. It appears you get more coverage if you break it, or roll.

Just saw about 3 seconds of your car on the channel 10 coverage of the Australian Rally Championship, which includes the WRC on this one.

Got a couple of corners, mentioning you are a local, & the first V8 home.

Hi Hasbeen. Its all about the money. If we wanted more it was $330 for more air time. The youmg bloke in the Diflam Evo 3 would of payed $3500 as would of the guy in the Repco WRX.
I thought it was the best coverage of the Classic field yet. Showed pretty much every type of car that was entered.[:)]
