Team Tracey-ERC 2008 Round 2 France

George can't wait to get behind the wheel of the 307 for round 2 this weekend in France. The car showed great potential in Lousada last weekend and despite a huge Division 1 entry, George is very optimistic about reaching the C final. He will be joined this weekend by fellow Dubliner John McCluskey in the other Profile Park car, a totally rebuilt Tony Bardy prepared Citroen C4. Live updates and IMAGES THAT I OWN will be posted here and full reports on Georges site this weekend.

Interesting that George has opted to stay with the 307 if the C4 is ready - does that mean that the 307 is the better car or is George just more comfortable with it having driven it more often?

George loves the 307 especially since its new found power and performance in Lousada so he is sticking with that. The C4 is a brand new car so nobody knows its potential yet but being a Bardy prepared car and the feedback I got from a dyno test, she should be well up there

Have you any more pictures of the car, shhh?

It looks mint from the back, but I'm sure we'd all like to see it from the side too.

OK then,
In the new RX cup Belgian Ivo Van den Brandt, must remove the rear spoiler from his Lancer.




Must be a strange look, an EVO V (look a like) without rear spoiler.

Have to take issue with you here.Look at the name of the thread. If other members want to post pics they can do so? I can't help but feel that some of the mods are treating some of the members differently.

Anyhow, after 2 practice GT is 12th and JMC is 24th

If other people have pictures to share then please go ahead - the more the merrier as far as I'm concerned. (This applies to Eurpoean and UK/Irish events) The threads are for the events inquestion so any contribution is welcome. Yes there is a lot of GT related stuff but if shhh wasn't posting that then we'd be missing out on the live(ish) updates from the events altogether. I'm sure Mad Mark will be on here once he returns - maybe he has pictures he can share too

Why does the spolier have to come off the Lancer? That's a bit of a strange ruling isn't it? Or is there something specific in the regs that outlaws spoilers?

Anybody else got pictures to share?

Day 2 Sunday Morning:

George and John are limbering up this morning for the all important Heats 2 and 3. Both drivers need good performances to qualify for the C Final. Fingers crossed

They can not use aerodinamic devices in the RX Cup.
