  • Legendary 1000 Lakes Rally 1967 when Timo Mäkinen drives a 3rd fastest time of Ouninpohja stage with his Mini Cooper S with bonnet open.
    Timo tells, that since the engine was overheating at the previous stages they tried to left the bonnet little open by tying it with a strong leather belt. However, at the middle of Ouninpohja stage the leather belt holding the bonnet broke down and so he drove the bonnet open the latter half of the stage. Still they had 3rd fastest time! They had notes of course, but the co-pilot tells that the Timo was so familiar with the road that the notes were not used. Co-pilot Pekka Keskitalo suggested, that he would close the bonnet, but Timo just cursed and kicked tha gas!
    Timo just tried to look at side window when his Mini was sliding sideways. Luckily Mini was so little car that there were more room for sliding.
