Rally - Still Edwards

With 6 stages gone and 2 to go, Bruce Edwards in the Tupperware GT continues to lead the DCC Stages at Ingliston. As for the forecast afternoon rain, so far it’s come to nothing but a few spots. Fingers crossed.

Bruce now has a 45 second lead over the pursuit but Stuart Baillie and Alistair Inglis are having a rare old ding dong. Tying after 4 stages, Baillie now has a 4 second gap to Inglis who spun on the previous test: “I should have listened to Gillian,” said Alistair, “I was just trying too hard.”

Ross Fernie is still 4^th but dropping back on the two in front as he struggles to get on terms with his sensitive sequential gearbox. Gary Adam is first 2WD car in 5^th place, but Ian Forgan in the wee Ka is just 3 seconds behind him in sixth place.

Darren Doherty is on the move, up to 7^th place with Hamish Kinloch 8^th. Barry Lindsay has got his 1600cc Peugeot into the top ten with Nick Runcie only 10 seconds behind in 11^th position but setting some very quick times.
