Bugga..I got that wrong. I managed to get put at the finish of a stage.
It is pretty weird having lots of loud fast rally cars whizzing around town today, getting a feel for the place etc.

I remember years ago me and my mates were running amuk in Auckland one night. Anyway it was 6am and we went past sky city and next minute all the wrc cars started firing out of the carpark!!! Wtf we said so proceeded to give chase tapped out in the primera along the motorway limiting at 180 with all the cars limiting past, dropping back and doing the same again! Was fricken epic. Ended up in raglan?? And spent the day watching the rally. Decided at 2pm we were in no state so headed off. Came around a corner and low and behold its Colin McCrae changing a flatty. Next thing i know we are stopped beside him and his navi and my mate says "bro you sweet? Ive got a spare in the boot if you need it". Colin gave us the best evils ive ever seen! Bloody hilarious!

F1 makes me yawn, as do V8 Supercars and all the other 4 wheel disciplines, except for rally car racing - those guys are great, real drivers driving by the seat of their pants dealing with constantly changing variables at ridiculous pace with often restricted vision angles and limited time to assess/decide/execute with bigger consequence than for the other mobs if they fuck up, if I didn't road race bikes I'd take some brave pills and go race rally! love to have that lot going past my door!
