Hello and welcome to 'myrsr.com'. This online diary details our project of buying a crappy '80s Porsche 911 and turning it into a beautiful replica 1973 911 RSR, before driving it halfway across Europe on the Cannonball 8000 rally. Well, keeps us out of trouble..

One month to go.. Car Still in pieces!

Well, there's only a month to go before the rally starts. Thank so much to everyone who's sponsored us.. We're up to around £1,400 now which is amazing. Mark is back off holiday and is completing the final assembly of the car now. It's going to be very tight indeedy. We may have to forego some of the mechanical work that needs doing, and just hope the car lasts the trip! Next week we're going to meet with Rani and Flembo for a drink to discuss preparation for the rally. These guys are doing it in a frankly awesome Ferrari 360CS… It's a stripped out racer (though it's still got air-con. Damn). You can go to their web site here: http://www.team79.co.uk/
