Lovely stuff...

Somewhat selfishly, you haven't got any more of the quattros or the Lancias have you? Only we couldn't get any pictures of them out on the stage.

Thanks in advance

Ian

There is something so right about a muddy A2 Quattro...

[Isimmo]

Lovely, thanks, as you say, they do look better muddy...

Lottery dream;

Audi Quattro (ex-works) Sport, nice big camper van and a trailer for the car.



It's surprising what you find sometimes... (Mk2 Escort with a 2.0L 16v Vauxhall engine)

Heres some photos from me to wet you appertite.

[RSD 25]

In the begining there was an empty rally stage, not knowing that it's peace was going to be shattered by one of the greatest rally cars ever made returning for a final crack at what made it great.



and in the words of DCI Gene Gunt, Fire Up The Quattro!



















Unfortantly after showing everyone why the quattro was such a legend and when we were going to another angle to carry on filming on my video camera, Ray in the quattro above spun and clipped a tree and one or two advertising signs. walst he was tring to move another A2 quattro was coming and almost had a big crash but luckyly he avoided ray and put the ad signs out of they're missery.

heres the damage done to both cars after i inspected them.

After a bit of a clear up, it was time for the Lancias to have they're turn.

3 Delta Intrgrales and Fulviafiends Lovely Fulvia Coupe took to the stage.

























Little did i know at the time that when i was taking this photo below, Fulviafiend had left his in-car on and caught me photoing his car!!! OOPS.

Here's Ray having a go at demolishing the advertising...

Not a brilliant picture, but you get the idea...



Did anyone get any video footage of the quattros by chance?

Edited by Isimmo on Sunday 28th February 16:58

[RSD 25]

i tried but kind of failed as i was walking away when it was happening and zoomed too far to get the near pile up and it's on my video camera.

i was going to ask the same thing really about if anyones got video footage of that.

[Isimmo]

Got a couple of nice pictures of our old girl getting dirty...



But wouldn't mind hearing it on some footage, the quietest place within a mile of it is inside a crash-helmet, with ear plugs, in the car.

Were there any genuine Ex-Works Rally Cars there, apart from the Competitors and The Richard Burns Collection?

[Isimmo]

No Jon....

[hansport]

What? None?.........!!!! Where the hell are they all?

• Hides*... I should have asked shouldn't I???

Sorry...

It is indeed the real thing. The guy does Oulton Park Drift Days quite a lot and it is the real deal!
