Great job by Team Benefi for finishing today’s Coffs Coast Rally 2024. The Holden Commodore VY Ute had no service issues and I found myself on window cleaning and refuelling duties during service – maybe a nap on the grass after 4 hours sleep too. Mick needed a few lollies to to kick his sugar levels on service – might help to start 9 stages with more than just a shot of coffee downtown. Nige might also want to not drive over one of the toolboxes entering service too

The roads were much like the Banana Coast – BENT – TOP speed 160kmh and there were humps. The rain held off. Unfortunately Nige caught a stick on a TURN HARD LEFT from a main road to a secondary road (lodging between the rear left brake caliper and rim) and this took more than 15 minutes to dislodge. Then Nige found himself electrical taping his fancy Ferrari racing boots as the soles fell off…we`re all class here. It matched the poor XXXX cane toad beers Mick managed to obtain from the rugby club – we assume by dubious methods.

All in all a top day after 15 years – thanks to Kick ASS for the hats. We’ve cleaned up and ready to head to Coffs Jetty to celebrate
