Well as the event is a week today i thought best get the topic on this forum ;D. The event is round 2 of the Peugeot 205 & BMW RWD Challenge which therefore means have James & Laura out on the event.
I should be down taking photos on the events again - anyone else going?

Well James binned it on the last stage - both ok, same cant be said about the car bit on the bent side at the front. However considering another 205 crew that hit the same tree earlier in the day needed rally rescue they were lucky to get away with it.

Phew. Very happy to hear that they're okay. We all know how quickly James drives, so there's a fair element of risk there. Stay safe guys.

alright fellas my god im sore today, the straps have dug into my shoulders and left little cut marks, bruised all accross my shoulder blades and for some reason up my right arm my neck is very sore too Loz got home and told her grandparents aobut it and they made her go to AnE lol here are a few pics from my phone, more will come once i get them sent to me. good news is, car was stripped of all usefull parts today. new shell is being prepped for spraying as we speak and rebuild starts soon oh yeah and other good news is that because of our crash the last stage was canceled meaning technically we still finished the rally in 4th

You say 'new shell' but that is just a new wing and front to be honest
My dad totalled his car, and thats not a new shell xD

You must get hot in that face mask thing O.o
Why wear them on a tarmac event?

Tarmac event - from the pics I've seen it looks like a boat may of been more suitable!
I'd presume the balacava is fire proof as well - another reason for wearing it!

It does look like a rudder would come in handy! Maybe Clarkson could've entered his ute with the outboard Honda motor.
