Hi, friends!
I like the whole idea about Scorum as a sport oriented social network for a sport enthusiasts. And that's what I am. I am sport enthusiast and occasional rally driver at the moment.
I still have a plans for driving my rally car and it's still in the garage. My trouble was some health problems as I had a surgery on the back of my neck at 15th of February this year. I guess that 17 crashes in my driving career resulted with some injuries on my body. But I hope I'll be back. I never give up.
I must say that I have some rally sponsors here at Scorum. It's my friends: kingscrown and b0y2k. Guys helped me a lot and I would like to have a new ride because of them. When someone helps me, I never forget. Some say that I am just like a dog - I never forget.
I started my rally career in 2001 driving some small and cheap rally car, very popular in ex-Yugoslavia countries, called Zastava Yugo group A. I saw that car when I was driving to my work. Every day that car was 'killing' my eyes and I decided that I must have that car.
I found the owner and we made an agreement that I will be the new owner for the right money. The same year I started to compete. Next year, the 2002 season, I started with to rallies, but on the 2nd round of the season I had a big shunt with completely destroyed car. That rally was the part of European Rally Championship and that was nice experience with some really high demanding stages.
That car was written off and I started to rent the car from colleagues from neighborhood country Slovenia. I must admit that guys across the border have much better prepared cars then we have. It was a nice experience with some professionalism that I never saw before.
After that I had Renault Clio Williams group A in my ownership for a short time and a short stint with ex-Škoda dealership in my home country with their proposal to drive a car for a selected rallies. The first rally was without any sharing of expanses except for tires which are the biggest problem if you want to compete on a top level.
I even signed up for a Monte Carlo Rallye 2011 with that car (we were only diesel car signed up) but with 310 entries and 120 starters, we were not the starters. It was 100th anniversary of the rally and I had a big desire to start that year. But that's the way sometimes.
Now I own an old (but nice ) little car called Suzuki Swift GTI which is very cheap to drive and has a nice speed if prepared good. The oil pump destroyed my engine twice so we changes a tuner and we hope to have a better luck this time.
Just to have a good health, that's my only wish at the moment.
Back to Scorum PRO label...
