Prep for the Granite City Rally 2010 Pics and Vids

[jacr87]

On Thursday and Friday this week I was flat out preparing the rally car for the Granite city rally on the 17th.

 

Things in which was done change suspension over from tarmac springs to gravel springs, replaced all brake pads and disks, spanner check entire car, replace wheels with gravel wheels and insure bearings and drive shafts were not worn. Fully washed and waxed interior and exterior of car.

 

Please see pics.

 

Enjoy

 

Cheers

It should go well, Just to clarify Im just the service mechanic for this. Cannot aford to rally at this moment in time although it is very tempting over the nex years. The car is only going to be used as a zero car for this even and to set time for the other N- class competitors.

What a little pocket rocket. Hope you don't have to do too much spanner swinging.

Well the Granite city ended well on sat. No problems with the car whatsoever. Simple re fueling and spanner check at the service area In aboyne and followed by a tyre change at the end of stage 4 as the trip was out by half a mile.
