Ubiquitous
Another rally, another Escort. The Malcolm Wilson event attracted a massive entry, from WRC spec monsters to historics. Again the historic class was dominated by Escorts, with a smattering of slower but more interesting machinery.
Deflated
Three wheels on this WRC spec Hyundai Accent after suffering a puncture on the Greystoke stage.
Evo
Mitsubishi Lancer Evo takes the shortest possible path around this particular corner on the 2012 Malcolm Wilson rally.
Blur
A couple of weeks before the RAC Rally I attended the Malton Forest Stages to get a bit of practice in. Both events were blessed with reasonable light, though for some reason I was far more experimental on the earlier event.
Esses
One of the many Escorts at this event dances daintily around the periphery of the traction circle, steering on the throttle, searching for those last few elusive tenths of a second.
Forest Flyer
The glorious-sounding Lancia Stratos barks, snarls and powerslides through the first Langdale forest stage of the 2011 Roger Albert Clark rally. Though it was the first weekend in December the weather was sunny and mild, a far cry from the arctic chill and deep snow of 2010!
Full Chat Fulvia
Though one of the prettiest rally cars around, the Lancia Fulvia doesn’t really set the time sheets on fire. It’s probably competitive enough within its own class though. I’ve been enjoying motorsports and action photography more and more and the idea of a system change or second system keeps popping into my mind – though the reality of my bank account soon kicks it back out!
