First time in RSRBR since the last Fun Event last year and it was a bit of fun when I got into it, took until SS5
I chose the 037 which I was happy with but I could have done with a bit more time with the car, first time I drove it competetively and only drove it 2 times last year, Made for some
..............
moments
SS1 - Cote D'Arbroz
Went into Cote knowing that I would have a slightly difficult time here but it was all going well until I had a CTD not far from the finish of the stage
SS2 - Sikakama
After that bad SS1 I was looking forward to Sikakama as it usually suits me quite well and my style of driving. Unfortunately I had the front end digging into the snow bank and it dragged me off the road and into the trees which was me stuck and dead
SS3 - Chirdonhead
Went well for the first kilometer or so until I made a slight misstake which saw me go off the gravel and unfortunately into the trees once more. This time it got me stuck so I needed help from the crowd and it also stuck my gearbox in 3rd gear so I wasn't travelling quickly for the rest of the stage
SS4 - Diamond Creek
Had a few scary moments here and lost a lot of time in 2 spins so wasn't happy with that one either
SS5 - Tanner
Went into the stage and took it very gently as I knew the car just would fit on the gravel because of its narrow-ity and the 037s wideness.
Went allright, had a few small misstakes seeing me a bit wide but other than that it went allright
Being less than 20 seconds off Manuel and among the majority of the GrB drivers I am happy with
SS6 - Kaihuavaara
Another allright stage for me. I could have gone through the stage quicker but after Sika I took it a bit easier and still "only" 25 seconds off Manuel, I'll take that..........
SS7 - Mineshaft
Went quickly for most of the stage but in a moment of loss of control I flew off the road in magnificent fasion and locked the gearbox in a low gear so I had to drive in 2nd gear and lost a lot of time because of it
SS8 - Bisanne
Took it easy and it went allright, no major moments except for into one of the hairpins at the end.
Only 10 seconds off the winner of the stage, I'll take that
A couple of videos might be coming this way soon but we'll see
