Mayo Success!

Crozier Motorsport Engineering in action at Mayo Stages 2009

Mayo stages was one of Clive and Ian’s toughest rallies to date.  Stage 1 was cancelled due to snow and hail on the mountain stage. But on stage 2 the duo made a fast start to the rally and almost a fast exit from the rally with the car getting out of shape over a very fast crest into a double jump.  With the extreme weather they were struggling to gain grip and overshot a chicane on stage 3 luckily escaping any damage to the car.

After a few adjustments had been made at service, they got into a steady rhythm and completed the next loop of stages 3rd in class despite brake problems.  This was remedied at the second service by ‘Crozier Motorsport Engineering’ when they replaced the front discs which had warped.

Big Jump @ Mayo

On the final loop they were back on pace and moved into 2nd in class which left them 32nd overall out of 141 starters. Clive remarked that ‘a lot of experience has been gained from this outing’ and was well pleased with the performance of the Hankook tyres.  This result leaves them in a good position for round 2 at Monaghan.
