Title: 2008 Roger Albert Clark Rally
Post by: SteveGales on 28 January, 2009, 09:36:05 PM
One hour review programme on Motors TV this Saturday 2-3 pm. As usual  repeated several times during the following week.

Hopefully some Stratos/ Fulvia action in amongst all the MK 2's.

Just watched the programme, incidentally it was 90 minutes not the hour originally advertised. Great sideways action but obviously a
bit of an Escort 'fest but no bad thing for that.

3 or 4 clips of the Graham's class winning Fulvia and a few more of the Steve Perez Stratos. As usual a real trial for Steve to get the
car to the finish, various problems along the way including diff and clutch failure and on the last stage engine, he was still classed as
10th overall though!

When questioned at a service halt, Steve said an Escort would be far easier but he loves the reaction of the fan's to the Statos and
hopes to make the car reliable enough to challenge for rally wins, it has the speed as he set several top 10 stage times.

If it was down to spectacle and NOISE it would win every one!
