As the title said a few of my shots from the weekend past ;
One of my Brothers (Barry, AKA Hemibum, Late of this Parish.


And the other of the Piranha Brothers (Peter) taking their Fury up the hill


A real rip snorting beast of an Evo


Single seat in hurry


The best sounding motor on the hill in my opinion


The exit from the hairpin was a good point for action


As was the approach


And finally, "Fintray? I can dae it wi ma eyes closed

I believe its a Tuscan... it was listed in the programme as a grif but the commentator kept saying this was a mistake. it was one of 73 fitted with the Ford 4727cc V8... but I could be wrong on that.

Visualy a 1970s Series 3 Vixen and Tuscan are pretty much identical, the difference being under the bonnet. Only the Tuscan has the V8.

Yep I think that's right. Also it bagged the class record at Doune a few weeks ago that had stood for some years.

I suspect it would have got the Fintray one on Sat (dry-ish) if he had kept it on the track. As to the wet......rather him than mebow

I had one of him very sideways at the Hairpin but was'nt that sharp

What Number/Car were you running at the weekend. I remember Stiglet on the side of one of the cars but can't for the life of me remember which one (a green & Gold 7 perchance?)
