They finishes the night stage at about 2.30am and got back to camp, which was the village football pitch cut into the side of the mountain.  Rained through the night.  Started on Thursday at about 11am were they had 55kilometers of road book to follow on mountain passes, this was not scored. 

At the destination there were 6 stages to complete.  The moral is really high and they are all having a great time,  Paul and Nev still chasing Jim and Adrian very closely.  Martin rolled his vehicle but has not hurt and had no damage.  The amount of spectators that are out to watch is amazing, literally 100's of people watching everywhere they go.

The way they are working the scores out are that you are scoring 60 points for every minute competiting in a stage. (So basically 1 point per second) So for example if Paul did a stage in 23 seconds and Jim did it in 3 minutes paul would score 23 and Jim 180 points.  Points are also added for penalties, and the team with the lowest amount of points wins.

They are completed stages 1-5 well (apart from Martrins roll) but when they arrived at the last stage at about 6.30pm there were two competitors very stuck in the stage and after waiting around for quite a while a decision was made by all the competitors to all abandon the stage and all receive a 20 minute penalty.  Obvoiusly this would effect everyones scores the same and so was the fairest way to resolve the situation so they wern,t out all night waiting to start the stage. 

They had a night off last night and were taken back to the main square where food was laid on , good sleep in a hotel should prepare them for another day tomorrow.

Last night only 12 cars remained in the compeition out of 24.

Firstly I got it wrong, Jim and Adrian did a wheel bearing not a CV!!!  They hit the side of a tunnel when driving fast through it!!

The night section on Wednesday night went out in order in which they were in the competition at that stage.  At this stage Jim was 7th place, Paul and Nev 9th place and Martin 18th place. Martin not to keen on staying out late so decided to DNF on all the night stages and go to bed!!

Jim still hasn't managed to change his power steering box and Paul is staying just close enough behind him to keep him commited!!!
