Rally and Rally Sprint competitions and events:

This site deals with information on the races and events where we have been involved.


We were enrolled Laihia Rally Sprint 16.9.2007, but found the engine oil leak prevented participation in the competition, which would have been 74 starting number.

So we have to try again in another race in 2009 !!!


Well, the Sierra has been used for the first time and the adjustment after we had seen the engine side of a few gaps and needs change. Fortunately the car was pretty good reference for the control already so horrible changes we need. We can only say that fortunately for us we had not driven a race yet…. We’re trying to get in the car yet, all the necessary components on time, in order to participate in Rally Sprint 15.2.2009


We are finally included in the first race since 1994. So roughly calculated as 15 years before you went to get re-compete. So we are involved in 15.2.2009 executable ermine hill sprint number 50. Competition venue is located in Kauhava, and the first car starts at 11.00. Let’s hope that everything is running smoothly, and we performed the first car race tests a happy…. Welcome to see if you are moving Kauhava direction.

Ermine hill Sprint 15.2.2009 has now bee run and it went little further less than the bench. In the first driving round went all the crossings, “ the trees “ because the gearbox caused a little confusion and no gears, had difficulties to find any and when the gear was found so the time was already go too much. In the second driving round, then I go already snow wall in the first condition curve, bit my front wheel into the snow and then it was already on the kit and time go again.sierra1.jpg The only positive thing was that nothing was broken and the car works relatively well. It now became clear that a small and narrow chute suitable for the car at all. It does not fit tracks and then the proxy is so long that a lot of change needed. But my first race at the back and we start to prepare the car for the summer races. Pictures can be found in Kärppämäki kuvat 2009.

Here is also 2 video’s….         Kärppämäkivideo 1.                Kärppämäkivideo 2.


Jalasjärvi sprint 5.7.2009 is now behind us and it is now lucky enough to have traveled in any way. I decided before the race already, that I will take safe and test the car faster on the road and what happened there either. A slow narrow road was keeping it safe, then I thought that now sees how the car goes to a wider road section, then an intersection after the acceleration period was bang and I thought, shattered car came vibrations due to but, but…. I started to drive slowly toward the goal and I got to see that charger is low and the temperatures was high car so I guessed that it occurred in the engine room was that bang. I drove it in spite of the pit area, because I noticed the oil pressure to be ok and the car did not smoke, only the vibration was shoking. I drove the car directly to the trailer and opened the bonnet and found the fault immediately. Engine water was up and came to the yard of the cranksaft and alternator pulley was in pieces. Need a little vacation to investigate damage and see how expensive the repairs will come, but at least now there is no doubt supporters…. To return to the pattern again when the time will tell…..

Next comes a VM Motorsport Show at the Helsinki Fair Centre 8 – 9.1.2011. Car restoration and renovation took so much time and money that only now we get back to attend an event. Thank you for this include our partners, that allow participation in this exhibition. Welcome to our stand and our offering to our booth.

Now the exhibition is over and we think that went well for us. The car and the products exhibited were of interest too, so the exhibition was a success. Overall, we think the show was poor, because private lacked almost completely. Hopefully, the organizer of thinking about what went wrong and how to get more cars and participants in the exhibition. Another departure from what came up was to show participants in the fair centre’s indifference towards the loading and unloading, the courtyard was shoking a lot of snow and it shovel to flow area increases from the roof of the house, as was also down yard  plowed snow in front of trailers. As a result, we have already heard statements that “ we are never going to Helsinki again in exhibition “. Was this is a good idea who will be participants in the show ??? Well I guess others, however, was satisfied with and participate in exhibitions in Finland continues to commercial reasons. Next we try again to get somewhere…. to compete….
