Harry Flatters Rally '08

[Rhodri.Lew10]

Had an eventful two days on the Ranges over the weekend. Plenty of committment and the best showing of MkII Escorts I've seen in a long time.

We witnessed a massive accident at Llandeilo'r Fan which completely caught me by surprise, I got the sequence but they're not 100% sharp though you get the idea of how big it was:

The co-driver was knocked out cold at first which didn't make a pretty sight with the car on its roof - but both driver & co-driver have since made a full recovery thankfully.


A couple from Saturday evening at Dixies:

A couple of flying Escorts (first time I've attempted jump shots):

And a wider shot of the gorgeous Escort Maxi - looking out towards the start line at the German Village:

Thanks for the comments chaps, much appreciated!

Regarding the variety Chris, I did take shots at other locations but I don't think they're worthy of posting on here - such is the setting of the bar so to speak!

Cheers,

Rhodri.
