I am with mini. As for the silver horse only time will tell.

Devi Devi Devi,

I will put that rumour to rest one time......The Grasshopper will be the car of choice for RT09, no 4WD.....this year....

As for Mini and Sio, who knows - my mouth is staying shut. will keep you posted though.

With our stages though for RT09 i am tempted to agree with AutoSport, this rally will be one by the team who finishes...not necessarily the fastest

these photos were posted on zhaust.com

hope everyone is ok...

I should think that with RT09 just 11 days away the cars would have to be shipped this week....

it'll be a mammoth effort... but in the right hands... the car could make it here....

Minor ting man, a bonnet, 2 fenders and a wing mirror...

Pics of stages up soon.

Postby **Mini** » March 31st, 2009, 8:12 am

so a lot of guys were on the stages yesterday...

I saw robbie, vishal, sarah-jane, franklin's co-driver (towards the end) and michael. I heard that rezan was there at some time as was bobby

the stages seem to be in pretty good condition... we have one more stage to note, the New Bronte, which when I passed thru on Saturday is a bit rocky in places...

Woodland to Ringroad is way slippery :oops:

Bronte/ Monkey Town/ Bronte is nice with some really fast sections...

Good luck to everyone this weekend.
