    First special of the day SS1 Old Coach Results here

    Seems as though SB has dropped a couple of spots down to 26th, it’s all good as there are already some out and it’s very early days

    SS 2 Breakaway

    Results click here

    SB is back up a couple, the penguin would be happy having both his charges first and second. Faggotter is third on his WR, then Benny on the Kato and Despres in 5th

    The rock star himself, in 24th place doing his road book. Seems he stayed out of trouble

    Highlights from day 2 SS 1 and SS 2. SB can be seen at the 1.13 mark. Says Cyril is having trouble with the road book. He is going well considering it’s a navigation event and he is having trouble and still in 5th :ohmy: Grabbo had a fall but is still in 4th

    Grabbo had a good win in SS4 Inglewood but still trails Smithy by 10mins in 3rd place overall.
    The flying frenchman is hanging back in 6th and 15 mins back, report are that he is hanging back deliberately waiting to attack but the barbed wire fences and roos are discomforting to him :laugh:

    SB is still in the event in 37th place around 5 hrs from the front runners :)
    Troy O`Commor from Newy is still going strong in 15th around 1hr 15mins off the pace ;)

    Big stage coming tomorrow over 500k of sandy tracks , maybe this is right up Cyril`s alley, the big Kato is setup for just such a stage :woohoo:

    Yeah, we need an OBT reporter on the spot like they have on ADV :laugh:
    Good gig for you next year I think :woohoo:

    SB is a tough cookie, so I reckon he will hang in there and complete the job ;)
    He has MCx2 Penalties for the stage, so I figure there is some mechanical drama????

    SB was airlifted out of the stage today, after a stake struck his boot and embedded in his ankle. Boot was cut off by the medics. DR has assessed him and he is good to continue tomorrow.
