Imagine how many photos I'd have if I'd followed it around for more than one day!

How did the street racing go the other day?

Was good fun eh - they run a hillclimb and gravel sprint as part of the same event, but I only went to the street sprint for the sunday afternoon this year. All good though.

Good to see the mighty escort represented in both marks ... I love those cars - for first ever car was a 1600 Escort Sport

Good grabs there Ben, was at my mate's place in Cambridge with couch in the paddock, beers ready and saw a trickle of cars come past before someone had a heavy shunt and then the stage was closed. :(

Gutted! They had to tour through one of the stages down here slowly too because some muppet ignored the instructions about the detour and drove a school bus into the middle of it.

Great pics GB. Hope you don't mind, but I linked your flicker page to my bro in uk via FB.

No worries, go for it :) If I didn't want people to see my photos I wouldn't put them on the net!

Gravelben will you be taking photos of the silver fern next week?

cool pics!
I have a mate in a V8 Datsun 240z doing this...

Not a bad effort, do you know what he was driving?

No I dont sorry but can find out when I see him next

Open class, 4 wheel drive?

This might be him here then? (unless I've got the 4wd classes mixed up)
