New Brighton Stage Rally 2008
Posted: Sat Sep 06, 2008 10:13 pm
Well was up earlyish this morn to go down to New Brighton (on the Wirral for those who aren't from around here) and watch the annual event that is the Wallasey Motor Club Promenade Special Stages.
Involves a wide variety of cars hammering it around the promenade on various stages though the day. It's always a good day, even though the weather was toss first thing. Dried out later on though, and everyone sped up.
The most dominant car of the day is the mk2 escort, but most of these have had the XE conversion and are a really good watch. Talbot Sunbeams, Sierras and Scoobies are also a common sight.
I managed to get a few photos myself, and some are from scrutineering on the friday...but if anyone wants to add any of their own that they've got of the day...feel free!!
BAT Motorsport's new Corsa C, never looked as good as the old B did...
Nova sport 1400, looked quick all day tbh. The GEG corsa above was an x16xe with throttle bodies and again, was pretty quick despite picking up more damage every time it came around!
The blue Sunbeam just in front of the Nova was running an XE with twin 45's. Sounded really nice!!
Thats all i've got folks. i know Adam-D has some so i'm hoping he'll put them up, but if anyone has any...fill the thread up!!
