Cool

Here's a selection of my efforts from the Rally GB 2001.


Impressive traffic jam heading off SS2 Friday morning.


Tidier than my office!


Solberg's rather unhappy car back at service. It sounded like a truck on SS2


A flying Pug on Brechfa 1


Still pushing hard into the night.


A tad foggy on Brechfa 1!


Neil Wearden I think!


The classic somebody get's in the way shot []


The atmosphere at the finish was electric, almost a sea of Subaru Blue


The Prodrive folks have earned their pay cheque this month.


Waste that Champagne!


If the images die, then blame BT Internet as I'm putting these pictures on their FTP / WWW server to save Lee's bandwidth and my wallet.

The full set of images can be found on my new look (woo!) web site : http://www.cxi.org.uk

Chris.

Great pics Chris, it's hard to believe it was a weeks ago today that we left to go to Wales. Only just under 1 whole year to go before the next one..

Who's going to Catalunya???

I'm debating the 'Ring at Easter or Catalunya.

Decisions, decisions! Actually, when I win the lottery this weekend, I think I'll do both

The northern contingent will be represented.
Mr Mellow, that insurance chappie, SS so far, and I'll be along, so long as it's guaranteed not to rain!

Chris was that hydrogen peroxide in your boot or is indecision now contageous disease?

Ah, Kev's birthday party in the Welsh Forests - not a common location.

That's Matt, aka HarryMattson on here. I was thinking about a caption competition for that face []

I was getting well hacked off with all the hanger-ons standing right infront of the railings blocking our view.

Why couldn't all the press stick to their area and let us see what was going on???

Hiya Scoobs. I remember the guy stood just in front of us.

What time did you get there to be at the front?

Thumbs up

Chris

Me and my mate were there a good 3hrs before the start. We were the first there. The two girls standing in front of us were, Richard's girlfreind, and the MD of the company that runs Richard Burns clothing lable etc.

We should all start whereing some kind of Scoobynet badge or something, it's suprising how meny of us were in the same place at the same time.

We'd figured one was Burnsie's squeeze, didn't know the other one. Very nice

3hrs - blimey! I thought we were keen going about an hour before the scheduled time.

I had a SWRT jacket and 555 Subaru wooly hat on, bright orange scarf as well. CharlieWhiskey was next to me and a lass with a BAR Honda F1 top was with us as well.

We must have all been standing within 10ft of each other, I didn't notice Jamie, suprising as I would have recognised her. (there's enough piccies of her on this board )

Oh well, maybe next year....
