Knockhill Rallycross.

Had a very challenging day at Knockhill last Sunday. It was pretty grim weather wise but it did brighten up later on. I just couldn't get my head into it though for some reason. Just one of them days.

Still a learning curve for me though, so not a bad day all round as lots learned for next time.

Just 2 for now, I'm still working my way through them.

Probably my favourite car of the day, a Mk1 Escort. There was a Mk2 in as well but that got a bit broken earlier on. It did run later in the day though.

There were a few other proper cars, a Kadett, a Chevette and the afforementioned Mk2, stunning things.

Thank you, a new (dark) art for me, that I'm still to perfect.

Most racing is over at Knockhill now though I believe, until next year. There will still be trackdays etc and my buddy also runs a Mini there now and again.

Served my time on Chevetts, Ventoras, VX 490s, Vivas.

Used to be VX fanboy back in the day. Had a few Cavaliers, Mk2 and a Mk3. My baby was a MK2 SRi130, still have the wheels off it. Removed a gearbox from a Viva, I was aged 12.

I do believe Knockhill has 'classic' events, I will keep an eye on the program for next year.
