FROM HENNING ISDAL CO-DRIVER OF TORD LINNERUD!! edit: (Not me!)
To all rally friends!
Will you keep eyes and ears open? As some on this forum may know, I am the codriver of Norwegian driver Tord Linnerud. We are campaigning a Toyota Corolla WRC in the Norwegian championship as well as selected international events.
Last saturday (14.02) we did the Rally Finnskog event in Kongsvinger Norway. Sadly we retired with engie failiure, but that wasn`t the worst. On the night to sunday, someone methodically robbed Tord`s service vehicle (parked near his home at Kapp, Norway). Nearly everything in the large service vehicle was stolen, including lots of parts for Corolla WRC, many complete wheels/tyres Pirelli/Michelin studded winter tyres and lots of tools.
Both WRC-parts and wheels are not easily sold (if possible at all). Market for winter rally tyres is the Nordic countries and possibly Russia and the Baltic States. There are not very many Corolla WRC cars in this area - so the number of "customers" are very few.
Tord is devasted. Nearly everything he has built up during several years is lost. I will plead to all forum members with all their contacts to keep eyes and ears open.
Contact THEM as fast as possible if you see something.

(I have no relations to Tord Linnerud or his team, just spreading the word)
