lol.. Rebounding about like two superballs thrown in a small room!.. If we see them lying near a pile of shattered glass we'll know who they belong to!
Fear not, they are now held snugly in place. Boot was far too big for them on their own. That's not to say you still wont come across them, shattered glass and a broken saxo parked in a ditch, on top of a blue 306.

The rules allow turbos on engines up to 1500cc so that would cover most of the 1.4T's that are being produced at the minute.
Was there a 1.3 turbo metro? One of those could be a properly quick Lanes car. And isn't the Glanza turbo a 1.3 too.

If you are going to have a crash on Saturday I hope you stick to your now traditional route and take the hit on your side of the car again.
Its giving rain for the early afternoon now. Oh Great...
Rain is better for gravel, makes it less slippy.
My traditional route was not approved so man up and take the hit!
Thats not reassuring me at all, especially when we're on the subject of driver's side crashes!!
I hate it when it rains. Either the top is down, or the fabric is leaking and the water gets in everywhere...
oh no. wait. Forgot. I drive a normal car, not a hairdressers rep mobile. Rain only affects ALL my french wiring instead.

Unfortunately in your case, that 'bit of tin' is from a Nova... so you may be better off with the fabric
There's not really anywhere to go in an MX either if it happens... lie in towards the middle, but that only saves one soul!... We call it the 'whoever gets the head down 1st wins' game!
At the Welsh Enduro rally a long time ago, a competitor wore a bicycle helmet to protect his head as it didn't fall foul of the enduro regs.
The regulation guru that is @RallyCiaran reckons you are allowed helmets but not intercoms but without an intercom you wouldnt hear the instructions. Im all in favour of helmets and cant see what advantage it or an intercom would give you. it seems silly to me to not allow safety equipment or ban intercoms which makes the use of safety equipment impractical.

It was probably that bit of Nova that infected my car with tinworm.
