And home from a “different “ Malton Rally !
Both crews OK !
About 15 cars in a MK2 Es**rt argued with some rather large logs and partially blocked the stage enough to get it stopped
Our good friend Will Knox was the MUK registered Recovery Unit with his Girlfriend Millie crewing and got sent in to recover the car
A few mins later he radioed requesting “some
More hands” so the Stage Commander sent us into assist. All they really needed was another Jack and a few extra ideas thrown about and Will and Millie nailed the recovery of the very badly damaged Es**rt (Driver permission for photos)
The Stage Commander then asked us to go and assess another car on it a roof near the finish whilst Will took the Es**rt WD back to the start.
Not enough time to recover car k roof between stages so it was left.
Got back to the start to do timing again to find we had been asked for an attendance sheet for the event so we could actually properly assist if required
2nd run through everybody made it out so just the one on roof from first stage to assist with.
Got to the scene and Will and Millie already had a plan so we just assisted with a bit of rigging for them. 35 mins or so later it was on its wheels and I used the beast to tow it back onto the track and down to the crews trailer.
Great being able to assist and top jobs done by Will and Millie Crossrigg 5 Recovery
