That looks like a shot straight out of a film called Villain, featured Richard Burton as a very nasty gangland boss http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_127541-Rover-35-Litre...Car's first shakedown run a week ago. On rolling road to optimise fuelling next week then a "proper" track outing planned for not long after that.
Car handled beautifully "out of the box" - like a dirty great go-kart :-) Currently working on fixing a recalcitrant gear change, optimising fuelling and tweaking suspension settings. Ears still ringing and smile has yet to fade ....
Getting there ....

Here we are getting lost on a rally in NL last weekend. I'm in the GT, Lut in the GTV6 and Tamara in the Spider.

Sorry to derail the thread but I have always wondered this: Where do I go to do this sort of thing and what is it called? I know this is a photo from the Berwick classic, but is it a rally or a trial or what? Also how do they work and how competitive are they? I would be really interested in doing something like this but to be honest I'm not really sure what they are/how they work. My car is very ropey and I have never driven anywhere but a public road, can anyone recommend anything?
I've had a look but all I can find are events that seem to be mostly on public roads for immaculate cars, either that or banger rallies, maybe me and my MG would fit in better there
