It is going heads up against a BDA Escort, ex Colin Bond rego no IYK-000 sumthing about excite the spectaters might be a few people there watching a few yung fellas from Urope too! Quote
bluerat Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 Watch out, that bloody Hadden will try and chat yours Mrs up and pinch your driving boot's LOL. Well done Jason should be a hoot! Quote
C.A.R. Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 You'l have to pull ya finger out & drive the Y properly then, Willy! Quote
luvemfast Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 Well done. Spank that Escorts butt. (do they charge more for that?) Quote
DAZDA Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 Well done Jason, it should be a hoot for you! I can't help but feel this is an attempt by the organisers to try and improve what is an overpriced & under-delivering entertainment package for the spectators. Having been to a few WRC events over the years, the last Rally OZ was the worst by far. Quote
Paulo Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 I agree that the Rally Australia was, well, pretty ordinary in the organisation stakes for 2009. That said, a bunch of us from AMSAG are travelling up for a sabbatical interlude and any help that is needed, just get back to me. Be there for the four days of fun. Regards Paulo Quote
dat2kman Posted August 23, 2011 Author Posted August 23, 2011 Well, Niel Taylor in the replica 710 SSS Violet, along with John Hadden in the ex works Colin Bond BDA Mk 2 Escort, with Jason Lea in the Jamie Drummond built, George Fury driven Datsun 120Y will go head to head on the Super Special Stages over all three nights in full competition at Coffs WrRC. It is very pleasing to see these old historic cars come out to play, and on paper the mighty Y should do well! In the Classic Rally, Richard Galley in his 260Z will be chasing Stew Reid ( my old driver) in the BDG Mk 2 Escort after having come a very close 2 nd at last months ARC event in South Australia Some 101 cars will contesting up to 280 km's of competitive stages over the three days of Sept 8,9&10 The 120 Y is welcoming all to be service crew, plea pst you interest here, you won't have to do much, just cheer and show your Datsun love!

Mooa42 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 If anyone is going to spectate have a look at the below site. He is a photographer and has spent a lot of time putting the site together. It allows you to work out the best place to be and how long it takes to get there. http://rallyspectator.com.au/ Quote
