	My old Chevette 2300HS. She was a std road car. However, I think deserves place here as it was one of 400 built for GP4 homologation. My Lancer EX 2000 turbo. Made 225 brake on the rollers 10 yrs ago I had this Mk2 Escort about 7yrs ago Had a Sumbeam ti around the same time. This was a proper RAC logbooked rallycar

	This was a 1973 Ford Escort 1300GT rebuild as a rally car with 2.0 Pinto. I had it for about a year and 2 rallyes (in Iceland 1983). It was a lot of fun but expensive and I had to sell it. It was destroyed about a year later in a rally.

	The Gung-Ho machine, as purchased in Jan 2004: Was running a near stock Redtop on 45's, Tran-X Type 9, English Ford axle on Talbot mounts. In action in 2004, overall Class C winner in that year's CMSG Stage Rally Championship: Looking worse for wear after an argument with a gatepost on the 2005 Tour Of Caerwent: Repaired using gaffa tape and a sledgehammer: Two weeks after this was taken it was severely damaged when a steering arm broke at 115mph on a single venue at Hixon Airfield near Stafford. Took out 100yds of wire fencing, 6 fenceposts and came to rest in a muddy field of rhubarb. No pics unfortunately, but it was in the workshop for almost 12 months, bent like a banana. Here's how it looked last year: Now runs a Toovey-built Redtop on throttle bodies and engine managment, around 260bhp, through a Quaife 6-speed sequential box to an Atlas (hence the humungoid rear arches) axle. I've driven it once in its present state, and it's fair to say it scared the living shooooite out of me. Glad i just twirl spanners/make tea/tell mucky jokes. Their 2011 campaign starts on Easter Weekend at Bath & West Showground on the Regency Stages. can't wait!

	Ran this as my road car for a fair while. I'd had a hard life at a rally school, still went ok though.
	Volvo back as my main squeeze, more boost and some interior goodies on the way.

	Ok, this is rapidly becoming a "who's done the Preston Rally" thread. So here's me: 97 and 98 in my cars: 99 and 2004-2010 in Nova then various 205s I'm normally to be found in this though: built for road rallying, sees use on trackdays / autotests / autocross / sprints - anything that's cheap really. Also got this: currently being reshelled after a minor mishap last year: Got this too, although it doesn't look anything like this good now... And navigated in some nice stuff over the years: And so on...
