Marina Stage Rally Action

Post by rallysport_boy » Sun Mar 21, 2010 9:42 pm

I hae just got back fro a pleasant morning at Weston Park, and can happily report that Trevor and Ian have managed to srart their first event in their Marina at last!

It looked and sounded fantastic - Trevor commented that the Marina didn't handle quite as anticipated - lots more oversteer than he was expecting!

Anyway, a couple of pictures that we took:-

I am glad that everyone enjoyed the pictures!

It was great to see out their in the flesh - it really did sound fantastic - with plenty of sideways action too. This has really spurred me on to make some ground with my project!

I think the idea about all the tuned cars meeting is a good one. I hope to have my car painted and built within 6 months or so, that way I can come aong as well!

I notice the rear wheels are not Marina.
Presume they are Triumph.?
No doubt making the most of the parts bin....
