WRC rally,
 
Well I am sitting here at my P.C. in the office and as I look out of the window I am watching all of the competitors heading back to the Toyota factory in Deeside North Wales, passing us on the A541.
I have also been fortunate enough to have been upto the service centre at Toyota for the last two days with work, taking a group of students from the advanced auto class to look around the paddocks and also have a chat with the Citroen team as our advanced auto principle lecturer is French and knows a lot of the behind the scenes team members, they really made the students feel welcome.
God I am really loving my new job, it is hard work you know.

I must be honest it was an absolute bitch of a day, and I am being forced by a mate of mine to go to the classic show at the NEC tomorrow, and I didn't want to go really, and the boys did a number on the Argies today, the weekend keeps going from strength to strength

Has anyone on here ever had anything to do with endurance racing, the Uni has been given a Toyota Avensis and we have been trying to come up with a project for the students with it and I was thinking about maybe 6 hr endurance racing to start with

Yes, although it was karts and for 24 hours.

Don't forget to give the guys doing the National rallies a cheer as well Arfon (they're based at Deeside as well I think); I know a couple of boys competing in this year's rally :)

Hi Porkchop, I was cheering them all on but my other half was getting p'ed off with the noise as they went passed the end of our house, think it might have rattled a few fillings
