Rallying

And it still is like that today.

And I think in some ways like I get a little bit upset with the way the – The rules are not the letter of the law at Condo but they're kind of never supposed to be, right? It's supposed to be like a bit more forgiving and a bit like come and try Rally and see if you enjoy it because it's only two days, only the weekend sort of thing.

Come and try it, see if you enjoy it and then go and do other stuff, you know.

And it still has that sort of relaxed atmosphere.

You have

to at least cover the costs.

And I think one of the things it does well is like what you said earlier is that in that 94 safari when they run like an adventure tour at the back of the field, that's a really good way to supplement the income because they did the same thing at Hellas Rally in Greece too.

They run like an adventure class or a Hellas adventure.

Well, we'll start off with a cool story, Stephen.

Spencer Bourne, Possum Bourne's son, is going to be competing this weekend at Ashley Forest Rally.

He's been working with Hayden Padden to develop his skills behind the wheel.

Of course, we've seen him do little bits and pieces here and there, and he's got the ultimate goal of competing at the Tago Rally next year, which is a real cool story i think for new zealand motorsport and it's great to see a famous name back out there on gravel but the big news the really really big news that has been announced is that race of champions huge international event is coming to new zealand shores in january next year really okay

okay this is this is

exciting so i know this is quite a cool cool format but uh

All righty.

Have you had a chance to speak to any of them? Yeah, well, earlier today we caught up with Chas and Hayden at the official launch at Henry Stadium, which was pretty cool.

But I remember when Carson, uh, Quappe was racing our late models, he struggled.

I mean, he had more trouble getting to the end of late model stock races than he does in the, a Rally series today.

Yeah.

It's super, super hot in those cars in the summer.

And it's coming after me first.

Darren Moyer says, I'd like to see you do more with Rally and Dakar.

Maybe a duo give a daily breakdown.

I watch Jesse and Quinn, but someone could do a different format.

Yeah, of course they were targeting you.

It's the AIs.

And Rally Navigator Online says, I'm 20 minutes late and missed the whole thing.

I hope you had a good ride.
