MU-X of Di Lallo heads Isuzu Australasian Safari charge after Garland misses stages.
Adrian Di Lallo and Roger Pedersen took over as the front-running Isuzu Motorsports entry in the Australasian Safari yesterday after Bruce Garland and Harry Suzuki were unable to rectify the electrical issues in their D-MAX from Tuesday.
Garland said he was disappointed to lose out on a chance of another victory in the Safari but the car would be ready to go for leg five to run in support of his teammates.
"It turned out to be an electrical issue that affected the engine timing, which is why it cut out," he said.
"However it is now definitely up and running and we’re planning on a start tomorrow and – all going well – crossing the finish line of this great event on Saturday."
Di Lallo and Pedersen's production-class MU-X moved up into fifth outright and maintain their position as class leader.
OLan Sornsirirat and Veerachai Thorangkoon in the Isuzu Motorsports Thailand production-class D-MAX had a good day, holding down second in their class behind Di Lallo and moving up into seventh outright.
The Safari stays around the coastal town of Exmouth for day 6 with two stages taking place. The first is a 161km run near Yanrey and the second a 209km stage at Emu Creek/Winning, sections of which are a repeat of yesterday's stage due to course changes.
