"Pleasantly surprised by today. The car's not handy but actually it dealt with the Taitas quite well between the bends. It was short of testing and funnily enough it feels like it's short of power. It's only a four-speed gearbox of course but a big V8 tends to get round that with its torque".

The first section was good for us but then we had two rear punctures on the second. We had the second just five kilometres after the first. The rim was damaged and the car dropped off the jack and somehow loosened the rear brake connection thus we had to finish the section without much in the way of brakes. And then work like hell in service to get the car mobile again. I nearly finished the rally going away from service when a rally car in front of me slowed up for some goats and I discovered my brakes were not yet one hundred per cent.

The Mustang had a puncture on the first section when they hit a rock hidden in the grass. They stopped and changed it. The car arrived at Naivasha with no starter motor. "Something clicks down there", said Duncan "But nothing turns".
