Wink and John Forrest’s appearance at the Dayinsure Wales Rally GB was a bit
last minute and struggled to find accommodation but thanks to previously booked
hotel rooms by another team which didn’t make it (thanks Neil) they actually have
a roof over their heads tonight. Of more importance the hotel has a Guinness
tap. Apparently this is one of the staple requirements of Service Crew Chief,
and four times Scottish Rally Champion, Ken Wood. Just proves that when you go
rallying, you have to get the priorities right, and that means keeping the
service crew happy.The life and times of a partially retired motoring and motor rallying journalist in Scotland. Author of three books on 'The Scottish Rally Championship' and one book on 'The Mull Rally'.
