New Zealand Datsun Club

Photos of Datsuns in the 2010 SilverFern Rally

all the cars we pitted at the palms yesterday arvo/evening. I wondered what was going on.

There is a matching pair of those 1600's, ex oz, one of the guys drove the tits off his one easily as fast as the majority of the BDA escorts. The other guy was pretty slow
There was also a 240z rally car none up in similar livery with a white bonnet
a stanza fj20
910 z18et
I think that was it this year. No 1200's

I was out at the 3rd stage today, I didn't see Duncan come through in the 910, VL Commodore doing it RB style!

Some more pics

The guy in the 240Z has done a number of events including the East African Safari so must have a fair bit of experience. He is in the Challenge part of the event so it either doesn't comply with the Historic specifications or they haven't bothered to register the vehicle as complying. The historic compliance is very strict as to only period modifications.
Shane Murland who is leading in the BDA is a good friend of mine, he also has a Sunny rally car (even though it now has a T@y!ta motor!).

Me Nick & Bede watched stage 1 & 2 in the freezing cold on Sunday morning.
The Dimension1 510 is one crazy car. Easliy the fastest at the hairpin we were at.
Was good to see soo many classics!

What happens to A Fiat after a 400m drop off the on the Banks Peninsula Stage. They where very very lucky to come out with only the injures they did.

That's not gonna buff out!

Jeez glad they're ok

ahhh gutted. 2 cars on day one. There was a ae85 too that went off too
