it is sad, ppl can hear the cars coming but cannot judge the distance of how far away the car really is and with the speed the cars are travelling you have no reaction time to avoid an accident.

thats why you should always stick to spectator points and cross the stage and designated areas

thats sad and all, but really, crossing the road during a rally is asking for trouble. some people have no idea. the spectators were the reason why the group B cars were banned....

What everyone has missed is that the spectator wasn't crossing the road during the rally. The unfortunate woman was killed when one of the group N cars lost control BEFORE it had reached the start line of the stage. Two other people were also hurt. For the record the driver was Gonzalo Alenaz.

      Yet another clutch question

      Sounds like a good excuse for a trip to Australia! But yeah, trying it out is probably the best way to go about it. Please report back what you find.

      R34 Series 1 And 2 Front Reo Difference?

      Well as I will have both S1 and S2 front parts i will see what works best out of the two. Im not fussed if i need to drill extra holes, and im a big fan of Nutserts/rivet nuts and a nice painted dome head bolt as a way to hold stuff in place where plastic clips have broken and are hard to source new ones

      Yeah truthfully it seems like the headlight supports for the ALTIA and S2 should be the same, but they aren't. I can only guess that the grill area of the Altia bar is different to the grill area of the S2 bar. Either that or it's due to the S1 bar having an angle up to the center bar that the Altia doesn't, or something. That said, I recently bought an Altia bar myself, and I fit it over the S1 brackets and thought "Yes, this will all work fine" so even as I doubt my own words as I post, I also daresay you'll be okay.

      Me too. Apparently the new version of Invision will allow some customisation so look forward to a 'Love' reaction and a new 'Like' icon.
