Thanks guys, glad you had fun. It was actually the hardest one from our point of view, simply due to lack of helpers. Huge thank you to JBT from here, we would have really struggled without your help on Friday, and especially dcmau who spent 2 days driving behind the field getting burnt.

Provisional results are almost done, good showing from MX5s. With one MX5 leading the pack on the speed tests after day 1, and a MX5 winning the speed tests outright too. And an MX5 navigator winning the navigation bits.

I just need to get through a bit more before we post the provisional results. BTW Simon Evans did 1min flat at Nambour Tony! But I do understand that the chicanes were opened somewhat and they were on gravel rubber.

A couple of pics I got from Gympie

1min 1 I believe Ted :wink:

So 1:35s on road rubber in a car that you have to pay for any panels bent isn't so bad I guess.

Ohh and big thank you to you, Jac, Andrew and the many helpers (and the Queensland Rally organisers for letting us play on the Nambour SS).

Congratulations to all the MX5ers. The results show Rhys (rhysk) and Josh (thepupat) as the outright winners, and also the driving test winners (equal with an Evo3 which was navigated by an MX5 owner) and navigation winners. Well done guys, the clean sweep. We also see Jeff (mazlot) and Beth third outright, Tony (fra66l) and Tammy 6th and Peter (abyss) and Andrew just one point behind.

Look forward to seeing you lot at the presentation night, and seeing more MX5s in the next event.

Also, a huge thank you to JBT (for standing in the sun at Lakeside) and dcmau for spending 2 days getting burnt driving behind the field.
