Hello, Gentlemen! :rolleyes:

Seems to me there are some folks seriously considering appearance in Russian Karelia woods.

Could it be we've met w some of u there last year...?

Would be good to know, as good company could serve as better motivation to make a "go" decision this year. ;)

So - anybody been there last year? & perhaps recognizing my profile pic? :P

P.S. if I can help somehow w regs translation, etc. - don't hesitate 2 ask - Russian 4 me is just little forgotten in speech (some vodka usually removes this obstacle), but no reading probs at all!

Hi Rednex - you'd probably remember us, we all had hawaiian flowers round our necks 24/7 last year :lol:

Well - loox somewhat familiar, but not sure...

We ran into couple of guys from your island who were trying to do TR1 in non-modified Series; had some difficulties, and - to my knowledge - did not finish any of SSs. :(

But - if I'm not mistaken - we had some drinx at your camp on last night before going to official party, where I got my head painted as seen on my pic in profile... :lol:

Or could it be so that there were several companies from UK there...?

Hi rednex

Were you the Raid team that drove us around the campsite in a suzuki on the night of the party?

We were the raid team with the orange Landrover 90, green Volvo C303 and a white Landcruiser.

Our friends ( Ade and Crazy Paul) were in TR1 with the grey series 3

We met another team from Riga who made me drink far too much Riga Black Balsam :o in return for a crankshaft seal, do you know they are?

"too much Riga Black Balsam" was what happened on last night - it got mixed w vodka, and result was, well....hard to remeber....? :(

That was when I got this:

Balsam was brought by LV team driving in Proto w their self-built ride on self-built portal axles:

The guy from that team painted my head while we were in extremely serious discussion w someone from Albion I can not particularly recall now ... :o

If you look carefully in the last pic u'll notice watermark saying Macsport4x4. I found that pic of mine accidentally on their site.

Happen to know those guys?

I do recall NL folks - we and them were only ones "wearing" mud traps on sides of cars. We had a chat w them at one of SSs. My regards to them! ;)

So - getting back to subj:

who's planning to go there this year? :unsure:

I promise - not _too much_ Riga Balsam this time! :P
