unfortunaty Dean's car was burnt completely to a crisp.
From unconfirmed reports the back caught fire after the 2/3's mark on the first run of Cedar Hill - no injuries

so far we've heard that Paul Borne may be out with hydraulic gearbox problems and Cristian borne rolled on bronte; Barry mckenzie broke the back right suspension just before he ran out of fuel, he should get the suspension repaired in time for preysal. Something may also be wrong with Neil Armstrong's evo 6; Cadiz ran off and reports are that Donald Gopaul ran off soon after in almost the same spot - the attrition is high.

so far Higgins is running strong, maybe just behind John Powell who is keeping it strong and steady - Ainsley Lochan is doing well so far and could very well be 3rd at this point

the rally has stopped for lunch right now andinstead of running 2 more cedar hill and 2 more bronte they may just run 4 bronte in reverse, maybe just 3 depending on the time

preysal still set for 3pm

It seems because of time constraints only 2 stages in bronte will be run starting at 2pm and then off to preysal

Jerome seems to be taking it easy, Reezan is pushing strong and Vishal is still in the running though he seemed to be seeded lower than I expected

Cristian borne is back out though missing the rear spoiler on the evo 7

Reezan and vishal pushing harder

Higgins is unreal - he is always on the gas - almost no lift even downhill into 90

Powell may be leading higgins though

Jerome is pushing a little harder

the swift from Barbados is a demon

Neil Armstrong is also back out in full force
