WRC mexico - was Re: Ashcroft, BC rally X

[Ned Ritchie]

Tumwater, Washington to be exact
I ran the Parc Ferme 
(secure place to park the cars)

A whole week of rally -- Real racing with real cars on real roads
Toyota Olympus Rally --  FIA World Rally -- not WRC
Many years before that it was in Michigan I think.

For the prerunning of the Olympus we had the first Audi S1 here; serial
number 000001.  We nicknamed it the "BatMobile" for the extensive wings.

Audi flew it here and paid the extra not to have the sponsor's
advertising plastered all over it.  So it ran as just a white audi.  Top
speed 112 but it would do that in three blocks.  It had the "constant
air" anti lag system.  At the end it was ten minutes ahead of John
Buffum in his Audi.  

Three injectors per cylinder.  Two for fuel and one for Alcohol.

After that I eventually started Intended Acceleration. . .
