The car belonged to Derek Tyndall (think its him on the left hand side of the 2nd picture). Dad supplied him with the engine for the car as well as lots of other bits. Can't remember all that well though as I was so young. He raced it at Castle Combe in what I would guess would be the saloon car...
Umm well 'we' would be me, my Dad or Mark Higgins. Think Mark might win the fight tho, seeing as hes 3 times british rally champion. Plus my dad would be worried about me crashing it trying to 'drift' in the sideways competition.
Evening all,
Anyone making there way to combe this weekend for the Rallyday? Should be a good one with a wide range of old and new rally cars taking part.
The Strictly Sideways event should be pretty good fun with noise metres measuring the crowds response to decide the winner of the most...
I know the guy that owns that car! He is the chap with the hoody on in the picture. He is a mate of a mate and lives in Leeds. He said he had only ever taken the car out four times and only when it wasn't raining.
Anyone one off here heading to the RBMR this weekend? We are there with the two Aston's. One driven by Mark Higgins (3 times British Rally Champion) who is car no.4 and Alan Thisthwaite in car no.36 (I think). Aparantly they have improved spectator areas from last year and there should be access...
Did anyone go to the Race Retro show at Stoneleigh this weekend? I was there with the Aston Martin Rally GT which was running on the rally stage, driven by Mark Higgins! If anyone has any pictures or video's it would be great to see them!
James.
Had an awesome first race yesterday, started 9th and finished 6th. Got some typical tin top damage tho, got a badly damaged door from another cars wheel, and shamshed front bumper from hitting another car in the rear accidently! Got my second race today at 3:40.
I have found a guy that does almost everything for the V6s. By the look of it he must have more V6 parts than Renault. Give the guy a ring if any of you are interested on 01769 540123 or on 07768 814710
