cheers for the pics Ray, nice to see some classic metal among the new stuff

Cheers guys,
Most of the cars were getting close to 200 km/h when they got to the first corner as shown in this pic (taken at the start)


Like I said before, lots of mods in some of these cars, the black Capri ran a small block Ford V8, the green Bluebird had a 13B as well as the yellow 'bug eye' Sprite in front of the black RX7.
The Lamborgini and the V8 240Z were the quickest ones there, however the Lambo suffered a suspension component failure. The 2 R35's were very quick as well....
That green RX3 was unreal, very quick and very loud
I didn't take a pic of this Fiat X19 which was pretty awesome too
Just go back through the pics so you know what I'm waffling on about

Real like the Capri got a soft spot for them missed buying one it was sold 15 mins just before I got to it. Only seen one kit of one its on my wish list.

Realised I've posted the Hill climb pics in the wrong spot....apologies around

Hey, forgot to say I walked up the hill for a sticky beak sweating
Here's that 240Z going nut's up the hill

This thing was insane

Nice XR Falcon with a tricked up 302, he got the thumbs up for warming up the tyres at the start

Speaking of Trains....My old man was in the Railways for 45+years, so naturally my brothers an I showed an interest as we grew up around them......

Did you see 'Thomas the Tank Engine' has an Aussie mate now...based on the 'Steamranger' loco here in SA

Here's the real deal, like this photo because my old man was the Station Master here and it's where we lived (Aldgate)
This loco is going through some major work at the moment, Tender been rebuilt.
