And now for something different Breslau Rallye Raid 2013

Eggcellent cooling solution too... best place for it I reckon, minimises aero drag too

I wonder how he has done the cooling air exit?

Love the front approach angle bash plate treatment

Is it just me or are the door windows different



Wonder was he inspired by this pic .....

I wonder how he has done the cooling air exit?

A Meredith duct, à la P51 Mustang I expect...

and there are downstream benefits to that too, love it

But would do similar at the rear, to reduce roof temps and incorporate a cold air pickup as well... that might benefit form a boundary later splitter plate though.

Of course he ways inspired by The Tyger, but wouldn't admit it though

That side has now the smallest of dings to a previously perfect panel, courtesy of cricket ball. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

When I saw it many moons ago he had the rad positioned in the back window area and just a hole through the solid panel the size of the fan. The windows look like a single sheet of perspex one piece maybe glued and screwed in and painted to look like stock windows

Unfortunately it's got a glass sunroof above the cab, which I particularly don't like.

So...

Whatever happened about this??? (I have been a bit preoccupied with stuff, but no PM's etc)

I'm thinking of going to watch and have a bit of a laugh with some of the other nutters...

Anyone care to join me?

Bit of prep work to do on the truck, but all doable.....

Honestly, could they have found a more boring narrator ?

I'd definatly be up for watching. And if we want to do some offroading, while we're on the way over or back, we can always do this for a weekend:

Well...
I wont be going to this.. had inside info that they don't like or want spectators and actively stop people from going to see it.. information is not given out easily unless you are in one of the teams...
The press were treated badly last year also apparently so been advised that it isn't worth the effort.. The best way to see the action is to be in the race.. you are looked after well then....

I have had an invite for another event.. I will be expected to assist where I can, but I will gain access to areas where the action happens..

Hoping its gonna happen as it will be a great experience...
