  • I’m being too picky (edited)

    Just listening to the podcast about the 1995 RAC Rally as if it’s happening now. I don’t mean to sound soo negative, but this is a story that’s been told to many times. And in the days leading up to the 2025 Roger Albert Clark Rally which is becoming such a cool event on the Rally calendar, I feel like it would have been soo much better to talk about the cool stories of cars and competitors doing that event than to pretend is 30 years ago.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Lia Block on the ARA title she almost won
Q: What do you do that is the most impactful to you to maintain sort of that mental strength?
Block described relying on self-belief and a mental shift when she puts on her helmet, alongside consistent preparation, sleep, nutrition, stretching, and routines that help her focus.
Lia Block on the ARA title she almost won
Q: Tell me about your fundraising strategy and how all the puzzle pieces came together.
Block said she committed to the full ARA season, then broke the costs down rally by rally. She started with about half the season's funding, relied on a cost-conscious team arrangement, and gained more support after strong results and exposure.
Remembering Terry Harryman (ft Allan Harryman & Ari Vatanen)
Q: What made their partnership work so well, especially in high-pressure rallies like Safari and San Remo?
Ari describes Terry as a calm, reliable partner whose notes and reading of the road complemented Ari's driving style. The dialogue emphasizes mutual trust, strategic planning, and Terry's ability to stay composed and focused even in dangerous moments, such as the San Remo return after the Argentina crash.
Remembering Terry Harryman (ft Allan Harryman & Ari Vatanen)
Q: How big a deal was the move to Peugeot for Terry and Ari, and what did it mean for their careers?
Allan explains that Peugeot represented a pivotal platform in a period of major competition, with the new era bringing more factory backing and a different promotional balance than rival teams. The change helped them maximise performance in a time when Group B required intense development and testing and it's framed as a turning point that solidified their success during that era.
Lia Block's first win - can she be World Rally Champion one day?
Q: How has Lia's preparation and note work contributed to her success?
She studied notes and videos from past events and worked with the team to rewrite and refine the notes, which allowed her to approach the rally with a deeper understanding of the stages and better strategy, contributing to her strong result.
