 in the cargo park fermé the second to last day and tonight they'll end up in Wanaka some of these cars are looking decidedly secondhand but the battle at the front is between these two guys this is Jeff Judd who leads the event by 50 seconds and the Englishman Vince Bristow is right on his tail and they are dueling all day and there's only a few seconds in almost every stage one long stage Jeff Judd managed to pull about 30 seconds out of him and that's where it remains at the moment we'll see how they go tonight in Wanaka one of the things that's always fascinated me about the sport of rallying is just how damaged cars can be one day and back on the road the next now this is the escort of Gary Smith and his son Adrian they've been sharing the driving initially Adrian turned out to be quicker and so dad conceded and let him have the drive we think this one's probably passed it right now but cars like this can be repaired and back on the road sometimes in a few hours scary adcox lovely BMW and in the results he'd been running right behind Dave strong in challenge all of a sudden yesterday disappeared from those results and had a contention what happened I had a problem with the starter motor pulled up at the service park and had to wait 10 minutes before we allowed it turned the car off and then when we went to start it no starter so it just sort of seized and now did itself so we didn't have a replacement in the kit otherwise we wouldn't have lost the three stages in the afternoon had to send the crew to the need to get one so lucky they sourced one from there and fixed it overnight and we're back today
