Oh, go on then. Here's my Corvette kicking up dust in Kazakhstan, en route from the UK to singapore a few years ago...



And a few years further back, my trusty old '944, with some camels in Northern Kenya.



And finally, a Fiat 126. In the Arctic...

Pretty epic!

There have been some great pictures on here so far.

Here is a picture of me in my 1972 Escort Twin Cam going "slightly" sideways at Calder Park Raceway in Melbourne around 1982

What a fantastic thread.

Interesting that so many track shots are near that castle in High Wycombe. hehe My first ever track day was there too.

Another Alfa, my old one at Goodwood a few years ago.



In case anyone's curious about the effectiveness of anti-roll bars, here's one without (a drop link kept popping off so I had to disconnect
it for the track day).



Long journeys in the car often brought the rain... A long weekend in the Lake District from London involved many hours with the wipers on. It had modern tyres though and was great fun on some of the passes.

1968 Giulia Super getting a workout at AROC NZ grass gymkhana near Christchurch. The Giulia does around 4000lkm each year - few of which could be described as taking things gently. Fantastic all-round classic car.

Where better to have a blast in my Alfa 2000 GTV after upgrading the brakes than at a Oulton Park. Slowest thing there by a mile, but definitely the most photographed. Shameless plug, it's in the classifieds if anyone is interested.
