RRG 19 pictures

As people have mentioned a lack of pictures from RRG 19 I'm going top post mine here (if be somebody can move them), and as luckyseven has given up on his excellent photo threads hopefully this will go a little way to compensate.

The choice of images is probably quite personal and there were a few cars that I really wanted to get some images of. I've tried to group the images and ignore chronological order but the flow probably jumps around a bit.

On arrival I parked up on the BNMAC 'stand' and proceeded not to talk to anybody, first time I've ever been part of a club display...

Obviously the star of the BNMAC display was the bubble top VW of colinhd but the only image I seem to have is of it being driven on the show-field

There was a Camaro (or Trans-Am) with a rather nice engine, is this the sort of thing that is in a certain El Camino, I guess we'll never know now

Talking of engines, the Allegro of edk83 looked immaculate

In the Paddock (and on the Hill)...

This BMW E30 touring car replica was amazing, if I remember it's V8 (Lexus?) powered

Another touring car replica was the Alfa 155, as an Alfa driver (when it's working) although a 1.9 diesel probably isn't as desirable, I really liked this.

Also going up the hill running cross-plies (if I remember correctly from the commentary) was this hot-rod, looked great.

(it's almost a cheat taking panning shots when the cars are coming down the hill)

Some other random cars going up the hill;

Back on the show-field, what an eclectic line-up;

The Chevy Bel-Air certainly had some presence

There was a great selection of Imps (this one is probably well-known but not by me)

I've been watching some old Wheeler Dealer episodes from the US and one featured a very similar VW.

Like the orange detailing on this.


Wheels, I normally take lots of picture of wheels but restrained myself this time;

Liked these BMW wheels, and the Volvo in the background



and lights..

This BMW was superb, the 'race' number on the bonnet set it off perfectly



RRG-32 by Mark Palmer, on Flickr
Lovely just lovely (and not just because it's an Alfa).

This was very imposing..

Little Tyke by MrSpeedy amazing to see this running, even more to see how he fits in it. I think it's more a case of wearing the 'car'.


One of the cars, and person, I wanted to see was Nathan and his MX5 powered MGB, had a good chat about supercharging MX5 engines although his has a turbo went well.

Another car I've always liked and the back story makes it even better is the laddiecapri by PhoenixCapri worthy prize winner.
