Emerald Stages Rally - Rockingham 16th Feb 2008

[Trackside]

I went along to this rally at the weekend. Some 60 or so cars entered including a couple of 6R4s, a lovely Celica GT4, Scoobs and Evos (although not that many), Escorts, 205s and even a Datsun 240Z. Took a load of photos which I've loaded into my Pbase gallery.

Some very nice shots there, was a lovely day for it. Started out as abit of a car killer tho, 3 or 4 out on the first stage, 15 (light blue escort) came to a stop next to me layin down plenty of oil round the hairpin we were marshalling . Poor bloke had abit of a go at a member of the rescue crew that pulled him back to service when he made fun of his situation. Im not suprised tho his £5k redtop engine had only had its last rebuild 100 miles ago costing £2k. Whoops lol
