|
Guy in the yellow 2nd from right my co driver in the road rally days
|
Gav Taylor
|
well spoken kinda guy, always very polite?
|
slippy
|
Yes but he has been known to lose his rag but I can be quite tesing at times
|
Gav Taylor
|
why did you sack him from SS?
|
slippy
|
Didn't, he wasn't in a position to contribute as he was paying to train as a riving instructor so quite admirably he said if I could find somebody who could chip in I should go with them but he would be there if we needed him 
|
Gav Taylor
|
good honest set up there, dont get that much from boro like 
|
slippy
|
Very good of him have to admit
|
Gav Taylor
|
was he any good though?
|
slippy
|
Better than you 
He was steady away mate on the stages and a legend on road rallies
|
Gav Taylor
|
good mentor for a then nipper
|
slippy
|
Indeed and he's probably do the same for another young nipper I know who is starting out
|
Gav Taylor
|
as it happens I'm friends with his son Peter Littlefield on facebook, might give him a tinkle and see if his old mans game for Team Taylor Rallysport.
|
slippy
|

to summarise, I may contact him through his son bro. though they may not share the same surname they always seem to be together out on rallies and the frequent calling of "son" leads me to believe that there some form of paternal link 
|
Gav Taylor
|
unles of course you have a phone number in which case a pissabout on facebook will be completely unnecessary 
|
slippy
|
I do have a phone number and an email but I am not aware of any 'son' from a previous 'knock;
PM me if you reqire said detail
|
Gav Taylor
|
your boy's been about son
|
slippy
|
Rather not give that much thought thanks mate
Details pending if required
|
Gav Taylor
|
shall we file this until needed captain.
|
slippy
|
Yes lets do that though I suspect Alan maybe incapable of co driving by the time you get sorted out
|
Gav Taylor
|
probably right mate, the way its going!

|
slippy
|
I can put you in touch with a friendly repair man
|
Gav Taylor
|
I'll probably use all of your rally contacts big lad!
I'll run a Smog Sport B team
|
slippy
|
Any support you need mate I will assist were I can, as I have had a lot of help/guidance from people so only fair to share the wealth 
|
Gav Taylor
|

Looks like there were a few of the road rally boys out for a drift (as they say in Wales).
How did Darkie Lewis (& Dan) get on in the modern blue BMW ? Darkie can be quite spetacular when the mood takes him, but thought he would have used his Escort for this type of event ?
