Here are some pics I took at the Mt Alma Hill Climb today. Some very nice cars out getting thrashed up a closed section of road.

Good pics d.c. - shame we didn't meet up!

Was a great meet, especially considering this was the first time they'd run it.

Pretty sure it will be back next year.

The car that 'looks' like a Datsun 260Z isn't - it is 4-wd and running a 600cubic inch 800+bhp Chev engine - was the fastest thing up there I believe!?

That thing was a monster! You had no trouble telling it was a big cube V8 as it blasted up the hill but 4wd is a bit of a surprise.

I will definitely head back next year for a look if they run it again.

Technically - yes! (that's what it says on the manufacturers sales blurb!?)

It was running Dunlops at the front whilst the rears were a couple of Bridgestones left over from the last Classic Adelaide that needed killing off.

Yes, I'm an Escort fan myself, owned a few when I lived in the UK. Truth be known I would have liked another MK2 Escort instead of the TR7 but people want stupid money for them these days; plus the TR should be a quicker car for less outlay.

The little RX3/4? in the pics has now posted in-car footage of how it got to look like that:-

I've also posted a few 'iffy' vids from the event, (search username nadg63), apologies for no in-car shots, but we are working on sorting that ......................... !!!!
