Damn, that looks amazing. I REALLY need to attend this one year. On a different note, I'm amazed there are any mk1 Escorts left on Malta, as sadly, most seem to have been exported here.

Damn, that looks amazing. It's a bl00dy good event coupled with the weather, the friendliness of the Maltese people and the fact that everyone of them is a petrolhead makes it AWESOME. Hare and Tortoise Racing are already planning next year  |

Also (sorry for the hijack scimjim) we got a mention in Octane and I can't get a copy so if anyone can scan the relevant prose I would be so grateful. |

What a great week highly recommended, we were spectating the hill climb just above the people in the photo on the rocks in the photo
I love Malta and the people, my son lives there so always a free holiday for me, Hal Far dragstrip is always worth a visit as there is something on nearly every weekend and only 5 Euros PP to get in

how cool does this little Honda look, why weren't these being snapped up and saved or did they rust out before becoming retro fodder?  thanks for sharing your photos |

Please don't throw litter, take it home.
