the squiggle Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 (edited) Some pics from the Race Retro event down at Stoneliegh Park nr Coventry Lancia Owners club display Mighty 6R4, ex Tony Pond and with one of its stable mates Mk2 Escort, ex Ari Vatanen Lancia S4 Ferrari 308 GTB Rally car ...........on throttle bodies Ex Vatanen T16 and Mikkola Quattro ready to go out on stage Miki Biasion Delta about to inflict some more damage with Miki behind the wheel Jimmy about to hit the stage in the Grp A Cosworth Jimmy's old Chevette N555BAT driven by Ryan Champion Alan Jones old ATCC Bathurst winning Cosworth Merc Cosworth French Rally Championship Some nobody creaming his pants, i would like to clear up that this was not Jimmy McRae driving the Grp A Cosworth. The "numpty" in question was indeed moi as Mr McRae was still too slightly tipsy to drive. 5 miles on Knobbly tyres from the hotel to event with 400hp RWD, a history as long as your arm and about 1.7 bar was sweaty hands material but worth every millimetre of sheer panic dealing with a paddle clutch and rifle bolt like dogleg box If Carlsberg done garages then this would be it Well worth a trip down to see some awesome machinary being thrown about like they were designed for Over and trout Edited March 15, 2011 by The Squiggle Link to comment

the squiggle Posted March 15, 2011 Author Share Posted March 15, 2011 Sidc should have a display at a show like this, if the Intergrale owners can muster a dozen or so average examples i am sure we can rustle up a few specials. Plenty of space available in the hall we were located with the Lancia's and maybe one for our southern members to benefit from Updated post 1 just to clarify a minor detail Link to comment
