telstra rally australia.

finally! my exams are over and it means one thing, i got to go to the telstra rally at last!!!! :)

with many still having exams, there werent many people that could afford to accompany me to the rally. but luckily michelle was keen to go as well, that and the fact she finished one day before me *boo*. woots!
so langley service park was the first stop. catching the first glimpse of the cars that were in the rally was an eye opener for me at least. with the driver's title and the manufacturer's title already decided, this last rally of the year was a sort of show-n-tell for next year's teams and and also a way to secure placements on teams for drivers. so there we were watching the cars come in after a washdown. and i lost track of time just snapping away. :P
then it was off to glouscester park where we had bench tics at the superspecial stage. with the gates opening at 5, we joined the crowds and made our way to the benches. which sucked bad. why? all cos it was blocked by fencing and it seriously was a terrible way to spend $30. so we decided to try our luck at upgrading, and even after already entering the stadium, we found that we could! :) so upgrade we did and gronholm we went! much much better and the $20 more was worth it.
the pre-race segment was pretty alright. flypasts. skydives. motorcross. celebrity races. v8 ute races. with the rest to be seen for yourself... enjoy`
