I'm going to track them too.

Been bored absolutely rigid for many years now, and this could be just the thing to liven up my dull and dreary existance.  evil:

I did the Cape to Cape rally back in August 1994 in a new Frontera, courtesy of Vauhall Motors. cloud9:
Cape Tarifa just up the road from Gib. to Nordkapp in N.Norway, non stop. between 2 of us and 2 navvies.
Did it in 42 hours, total mileage from home there and back and all the publicity stuff prior and after was just under 9,000.

Probably the best experience of my life tbh, and the most knackering.
