Full fart = full speed…
Better a 'speeding' 307 than a 'farting' GT…

The late entry guy’s George and Jakob Teil Hansen did not have to pay the entry fee I think.
And it is OK by me! After all it is the D1 boy’s we want to see. So I think George will have the testdrive of his life for free!!

George just missed out on the A final. Once again he was extremely happy with the performance of the 307. The car was exceptionally quick off the grid and only for the unfamiliar track he would have qualified for the final.

Off to Holjes now for a few days testing where George jnr will receive some Division 1 tuition from Per in the 307

4. Per Eklund (S), Saab 9-3 ASS T16 4x4
5. Stig-Olov Walfridsson (S), Renault Clio RS CR1N T16 4x4
6. Peter Hedström (S), Ford Fiesta ST T16 4x4
