Aguascaliantes: Across The Finish Line..

F an I finally crossed the finish line in this beautiful medieval town around 1830 last night. Mixed emotions: sad to not be competing in this adrenalin-fuelled Rally, pleased to have made it safe and looking forward to seeing our families. Made some great friends and were continuing to improve through the week. Our Jaguar was somewhat outpaced by the 911´s in Historica ´B´ and we were hit by one and a bit day´s car trouble but we competed well against some world class teams. The resultados and times therein can be seen on La Carrera Pan American website: 74th from a field of 114 with 36 minutes of time -absentee penalties . I have buckled the Co Driver footplate with the pressure of my feet compelling the car away from cliff edges yesterday at La Bufa so today walk as light as a butteerfly having floated close to my edge.

Apparently.

Will post pics and film later today.
