Come on Curt, Nick M etc. I'm sure you guys would like to have a go I would love to have a go obviously. But I can't afford to start rallying yet. Also James' car sounds cursed . I'm sorry to hear about another DNF . Do you plan to get a different car if you are putting your current one up for sale? If so will it be another 205?

If so will it be another 205? its not up for sale its up for rent as im starting uni this weekend and wont be getting alot of time to use it till xmas, therefor it may aswell be earing me some moolah for next season, plus this way it will get prepped before and after every event for me at no cost for me so the car will be sported for next year. the car is fine now, loads of people break shafts its just a natural rally problem, thing is we would of finished but we were stuck on stage for like 2.5 hours without being able to get towed out or we could of done the last 2 stages. Oh wells, bring on next year, and curt it will only cost you like £30 for a licence and then borrow a helmet and suit and your sorted

Sounds like your having a Petter Solberg run of luck! That's gotta be VERY frustrating!

I like the new sig James Are you retiring each time purely because of mechanical problems or are you having driver errors as well?
