We wanted to ensure we grabbed a good spot but as you can see from the picture right, we were the first to arrive so we parked Nellie in prime position on the grid at the start tape.
The weather was warm though overcast and rain was forecast at sometime today.

With this news, this stage of the rally was discontinued and we awaited the all clear to take to the road and return to Olvera......in the rain as forecast.
I thought it was a brilliant day out....Anne wasn't that convinced, having managed to get a good way through the book she brought with her entitled "Twenty reasons I'd rather watch paint dry".
Well done to the organisers for putting on such a great event. Now what's next.......??
