Each year, the Elan's are doing their best on that long distance race. Or not.

Amazing cars, the lines & speed of the cars varies so much... the GT40 is just so slow.. maybe looking after the car?

Horrible accident in the Blue/Orange Elan... he just comes in way too hot...

Thanks for posting.

Hi Christian,

Another excellent result for JPL, I hope he hasn't retired the Elan for the E Type 8)

So sad to see the Elan in the barrier :cry:

Fantastic fun - tarmac rallies are my favourite form of motorsport. I've had 1-2 whacks over the years - had a rear wheel come loose at speed while overtaking a Porsche - turned out to be a loose spinner, and ended up with a very lucky (well, skilful) save. After that, I switched to bolt-on hubs for safety - never lost a whole hub though, which looks like what happened to the first guy. The second guy looks like he came in too hot - do they allow pace notes in the TA?

Here's me at Mt Buller last year - 18km hillclimb and 3 days of winding mountain roads - yeeha!
