Motorsport came to me at the weekend when a Belgian Classic Car rally passed my house around Saturday lunch-time, so I made my sandwich, sat back & enjoyed!
There was quite an array of entrants, from full-blown rally-prepared machinery such as a Healey 3000, two Toyota Celica's of different vintage, Lotus Cortina, Sunbeam Lotus etc, down to near standard cars. Bringing up the rear was one for Gerard - a Healey Abbott Drophead Coupe that looked far too nice to be thrashing around on muddy rally stages.
Yesterday we went to St Valery for a day-out with Alfa Club du Nord, only to meet the Belgian rally boys yet again as we neared St Valery yesterday morning.
