Some Fun in My Rally Car


On Sunday it was the 5th Round of West Cumbria Motor Clubs Autotest and it was to be held on grass.

In the last 4 autotests I have used the MK1 Fiesta rather successfully and sat in 5th place on the leader board (out of 28) and was a good amount of points ahead of 6th place.

So, I decided to drop the competitive aspect of the championship and go for all-out showmanship. How you may ask, well that is simple.

Autotests (especially grass ones) are designed for front wheel drive cars as they don't put too much power down. With this in mind I decided to bring along our 2 litre Pinto Ford Escort MK2 Rally Car.

My aim was to get it as sideways as I possibly could and to have a good time and allow others to have a good time. It is needless to say I succeeded in this aim.

Below is a few of my tests that a couple of folk videoed for me. Watch out for the needless 360's and the arm out the window on two occasions

I hope you enjoy watching as much as I enjoyed messing around!

P.S. Despite my tomfoolery I managed to pull off 13th overall out of 20

Looks like fun, but could you not just have gone to a big empty field and done it for fun?
