    JIM,

    In Setember, the wheather is usually hot, but if it rains... You may need some diving equipement. :D:D . The place in the picture is in the track of the European Cross cars, every year we have an SS there. In the year of this picture was the worst, i stayed there 30m and my cpu broke down and i had water in the fuel tank as well. All the others years, we did ok. In 2008 we will be there in the last night(saturday to sunday), during the last 3 SS, it all depends how the organization makes the SS.

    Hello Adrian and Shaun, that is my car under water in the 2004 RFC Murça. I stayed there 30m, but there was no fish.... :D It was the last SS on Sunday morning. I had to turn off the engine, becouse the water got in the snorkel by the top. When i got the car out, and turn on the key, the lights look like a Christmas Tree lights. I post some more pictures of my Submarine Defender.
