I won the Rushmoor Targa in my pretty standard 1275 Micra, beating Escorts, BMWs,... 😁
Getting the Tests right and not hitting cones is key.
The pace of Targa Rallies is increasing, with Pumas now winning most events.
The 061 Targa is running at Weeton next Saturday, go and Marshal if you...
Thanks. They do look like the Superturismo.
Would there be any OZ markings on them? I'll take a closer look when they arrive later.
They're going to be surplus to requirements, I want to advertise them correctly.
I'm just buying back a car I sold. It's coming back with these 15" Renault wheels. They were described as Storm wheels, is that correct?
They're 6J ET43.
I can't make out the part number in the old pictures, I'll check when they return.
Any guidance appreciated.
Definitely not true. E marking does not define a road legal tyre (except on a Welsh Road Rally). I've seen non-E marked tyres on Police cars.

Well I have a multi-car policy with REIS to include my 205 GTi historic rally car, Micra stage car, 1969 Mini Cooper S rally car AND my completely standard Mercedes C Class estate. My Partner has just independently insured her completely standard MINI Countryman with REIS. Clearly REIS DO insure...

This appeared in the minutes from the latest MSA Technical Committee Meeting:
"CHANGES TO MOT REGULATIONS
A query has been raised by a member of the Speed Events Committee as the new MOT regulations are apparently restrictive on modifications; they do however include an exemption for "rally...
That's Snell K2005 and K2010 - kart helmets for drivers under 15 years old.
Mainly kart changes, new cross country tyres, more standard tubes sizes for ROPS, red flags and wrong routes on stage rallies, nothing ground breaking, until it affects you!
I rolled my ex-works 205 end over end in Ringwood Forest, starting at around 80mph. We were fine, mainly as the front dug in, flipped us, then landed on a rear wheel which absorbed a great deal of the force as it was knocked off. The shell was banana shaped, but they have to give to absorb the...
