  Report: Peking to Paris, day seven 3 Jun 2013 (News)
  In the Classics Division the lead has changed yet again, with Gerry Crown, aged 81, beating all the younger blood to re-take the lead in the Leyland P76. The Citroen DS was no match for the determined pace of the veteran Aussie in the big V8, who took minutes out of the Citroen on all three test-sections, ending the day two minutes ahead of its rival. Welding, grinding, banging, soldering, and all manner of running repairs are now noisily going on in a frenzy to catch the final remains of the fading light, with most of the rally now having set up camp for the night as fatigue and exhaustion from another day in the struggle to reach Paris finally takes over.

  Report: Peking to Paris, day eight 5 Jun 2013 (News)
  The needle-match at the front of the two Categories proved to be as competitive as ever, with the Time Trial of the day seeing the Citroen DS seeking revenge for yesterday’s drive by Gerry Crown in the Leyland P76, snatching back 20 seconds out of Gerry’s lead which is now less than two minutes. The two Russians in the Moskvitch are an impressive 10th, but they have Mercedes-Benzes, Jaguars, Mustangs, Porsches behind them… In the Vintageants, second placed Bruce and Ben Washington poured on the coal to stoke up enough grunt to stay second and hard on the heels of the leading Chevrolet of Phil Garratt, but third placed Bill Cleyndert and Mark van Hees in the Ford Model A raceabout set the best performance on the Time Trial, covering the ground in 17 minutes 08 seconds, no less than 19 seconds quicker than the Chevy.

  There were two Time Trials today and Gerry Crown dropped time on the first, having broken his rear shock absorber mountings, allowing the Citroen DS to prove quickest car and beat Gerry’s Leyland P76 by eight-seconds, but on the second, uphill, the big V8 had the low-down grunt to haul the big car up to the top in a storming best time of 9 minutes 56 seconds, the only car to get under the 11 minute barrier, the Citroen posting 11.23.
