well i have had a wicked day, so much action at Dwellingup, rollovers and mucho bank slapping right in front of me!

The usually anal marshals were being very "cool" with the public all day.

Loeb is out, Solbergs got it in the bag, Gollin is coming 2nd

such a shame Atko had issues, he would be on the podiun fo' shaw.

Managed to sneak in to Beraking this arvo, got some excellent close up hairpin action. Nice.

Headed to Sotico today as part of my first ever rally experience and what an awesome day!

I was expecting to have more viewing spots etc but we ended up heading to the jumps and setting up camp! Beers and snacks being offered @ 9.30am is always a good start to the day Great Perth weather, good scenery and some decent action.

Few negatives though... Commentators talked A LOT of shit. Got annoying sometimes

Got sunburnt and now it hurts. My fault though and the amount of speed checks on the way there and back. Sure i understand people get excited and give it a bit of a squirt BUT i question the need for 3 speed cameras on the way home plus more police doing speed checks at various points than i cared to count. This in turn slowed the traffic down (ie 60/70 in a 110 zone) causing some stupid overtaking stunts as traffic was getting a tad congested..

Other than that, i look forward to next year!

one thing that confuses me is why they dont have Official TEAM merchandise stands!

no subaru or other gear, stupid if you ask me!

government should of put that in and taken a cut from sales, to make more money to keep it here.

Is Golin going to stay with Skoda in 06? It was so good to see him punting harder than most in the little car, great for the team and the spectators and Golin.
