Name: Terry (Taxi) O'Donnell
Age: 41
Location: Brisbane, Australia.
Occupation:Heavy Vehicle Mechanic for a Government department (not allowed to say which one!)
Marital/Life status: Married, to my supportive, understanding, beautiful wife, Pam.
Time involved with rallying:Since some time in the early-mid 80's.
How did you get involved with motorsport: I never missed an issue of Chequered Flag as a kid, and it was Rallying and Off Road taht really caught my eye.
How did you get involved with rallying: I stuck my hand up and helped other people work on their cars at Rallyequip when I was (a lot) younger - when Frank Kilfoyle owned it. I have done lots of road closures and over the last few years, done a few start controls at various ARCs.
Time competing in rallying: First got into it seriously in about '03 navigating in a class 5 Gemini at the Goondiwindi AORC event. Navigated in a couple of VCRS events last year whilst studying in Victoria. I also ran my Kombi Van in KCs for a year down there!

What am I doing on the Excel Series forum?
I was referred here by Skypilot after I replied too late to his request for a navigator.
I've taken an interest in the series since it's inception, always thinking it's been a good idea. After watching the Kaitler X3 doing so well in KCs, I was convinced. Although I was a little saddened at the time to hear that QLD would not be running a series. Fortunately, that has changed and I'm looking for someone who needs a keen and moderately experienced navigator for the QLD series (Don't forget that I'm also a mechanic!).
Cheers,
Terry O'Donnell.
