7 Uren van Emmeloord
« on: June 26, 2018, 10:00:26 »
My son Tom and I participated in this rally this weekend, as a practice rally for the SLS which we will take part in later this year. We won third prize. Here a couple of photographs.

I agree.  It is a fantastic picture, caught at just the right moment to catch the profile and emphasize the speed.

He's older and wiser now. And with these properly organised rallies cheating is virtually impossible.

That, and you can't see the rust!

I see no rust, only a nice blue Pagoda rolling down the road .... a smiling father and son inside ... great photograph worthy to be framed and displayed in the garage or in the house as a nice memory.
