Saturday End of heat one - Subaru Rally of Tasmania
The crew of Brett and Andrew had a horror of a event.
Dropping over 1 minute on the first Special stage was the beginning of a day
of slow stage times. "We suffered weird handling all day and could not solve it"
Brett said.
The team battled with the poor handling Impreza for the rest of the heat, with
some success, the end result was 14th over all. An average of 1 second per Km
was the loss and teams that they were swapping stage times with in Adelaide
"were whipping them"

At least the car has no scratchs and no bends!
Unfortunately the seemingly end of Mitsubishi's chances of a ARC drivers championshipp occurred with a terrible accident for Ed Ordynski, hitting a pole on the Bushy Park Stage. Both crew were taken to Hospital Ed with two broken ribs.
The Evo 7 LAncer suffered badly and will be repaired for the next rally, (Melbourne)
