Weve also had Local Joe in touch about his Trackrod Car.... What an epic mix weve had this week huh!!
SO MANY MORE to be seen tomorrow here at NY500!! Were so Excited!
Joe let us know - Its a Vauxhall Astra Gsi 16v Mk3, 1997, it the left the production line straight to Dick Archer at Wizzard Motorport to build for the Group N British Rally Championship with Stuart Egglestone, finishing 1st in class on Pirelli Rally 97 and with Daniel Harper finishing 7th overall on Mull Rally 1st in Class in 98 among other notable results. Still with the original shell, since then has been developed into a Group A car with a race engine redlining at 9000rpm on jenvey throttle bodies, a quaife dog box with L*D, 3 way pro flex suspension, with rear coilovers. Alcon 4 pot front brakes and electric power steering. With a recent full bare shell rebuild by JoeRallySport, where you can follow the car throughout future events on Instagram. 38 year ago Stuart and Steve made the roadbook for the rally Yorkshire and 37 years ago since they first did the event also in a Vauxhall Astra. I do believe they’re first in the road on Saturday morning...
Epic Joe - have fun, good luck and see you tomorrow!!
