Hi All

The Performance Finance & Leasing /Turner Motorsport team of Dylan Turner and Sandy Bansal had a great weekend at the third round of the 2005 Parker ENZED New Zealand Rally Championship, Racetech Rally Wairarapa.

The team finished Leg One 8th overall and Leg two 8th overall to move up to 9th in the championship standings.

Run in gloomy wet conditions on Saturday and slightly warmer and drier weather on Sunday, both Turner and Bansal had a great event long tussle with Marty Roestenburg and Dean Sumner.

"We have had a great event, with minimal problems. Our stages times were good, with all our stage times in the top 10 and a highlight was 4th equal in stage 8. "

"On stage 9 we had a moment on the bridge about half way through. I braked a little late and we took off into the bank on the outside of the corner and bounced off it. We were really lucky not to suffer any major damage, other than pride and a few bits of spoiler going missing", explains Turner.

"The car was going great; the tuning that Gary Capper did before the event combined with the Dunlop tyres enabled us to push really hard all weekend."

The team now has a short timeframe to prepare the Performance Finance & Leasing /Turner Motorsport Evo 6 for the Hella Rally of Rotorua in two weeks time. Needing only a few spoilers and a good spanner check at Gary Capper Performance, they will look to build on the results at Wairarapa and gain more points at the 3 day event.

The team would like to thank our sponsors for the 2005 Parker ENZED New Zealand Rally Championship - Performance Finance and Leasing, LJ Hooker Manurewa, AB Panel and Paint, Team Evolution, Dunlop, Chiropractic and Sport and Dale Perry from Rally Drive NZ for all his assistance.

Til next time.
