Update - October 2009

Firstly, the metro! Unfortunately this is still in bits round at HT Auto's! This is due to several different reason - delays in me being able to source parts (unfortunately I'm only able to get out at weekends due to work!), parts being delivered wrong (the car's engine is seemingly one suprise after another with nothing seeming to be as standard!), focus on the Escort... Looking at the overall cost of repairing the engine and the limite number of events left this year it unfortunately looks like my season could be over from a driving point of view. I'm now looking to 2010 and the Jack Frost Stages at Croft in January.

The Escort is looking pretty good now and we're looking to get it taxed at the end of the month so we can have a couple of run outs in the evenings before the the rally. This is mainly to put some milage on the new gearbox and give the car a shakedown as well as to allow me to get some practice in reading maps at night as it's been almost a year since I last did a rally in the dark or with maps!
