.... of the world.

Anybody there this weekend - and especially Sunday. Due to the fact my camera didn't want to work - anyone got any pictures??

And has any one got any pictures of the second show by Russ Swift - especially when he took the 90 up the ramp and drove on two wheels?? Very interested in these as I was in passenger seat!!! :shock:
Not natural having a 90 tilted that far over... but was the funniest thing I've done for ages!!

You should have butted in - would have been good to put a face to a name.

Is there any chance of a copy of the original picture??

Was it not a factory owned vehicle? Interesting it was one of those old fashioned Td5's. I'd always asumed he'd have been showing off the latest model.

Is there anything the driving genius Russ Swift can't drive on 2 wheels? He's even done a Leyland RoadRunner lorry if I remember right.

That was down to the blocks of wood in the drivers side springs, and a couple of other bits and pieces.
Along with the locked rear diff, and no front propshaft.

Nope wasn't there Saturday (was in bed - not feeling too good) - I went in the LR on Sunday afternoon (the later showing). I didn't quite pay Ã‚Â£50 though... but close. Oh well, was for Charity (and I hadn't paid to get in the show!!)

They belong to a mate of mine... were specially made, and not that cheap AFAIK, but I could have sold them 10 times over at the show!!
