Davep1 Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 Went to watch a test on the Flying Scotsman rally (Endurance event in Borders) - fantastic to see 7 litre 1920's Bentleys being thrown around the mud! This finishes at Gleneagles tomorrow - if you get a chance to see the cars you wont regret it. Over 100 mainly prewar cars - includes over 20 'proper' Bentleys. http://www.endurorally.com/pages/flying-scotsman-rally-2017 4 Quote
CosKev Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 Bet that is awesome to watch Dread to think of the value of those cars combined! Quote
Davep1 Posted April 1, 2017 Author Posted April 1, 2017 I really admire the drivers / owners who are prepared to take cars worth £1/2m plus out on wet, muddy roads rather than keep them cosseted inside. They were generally really going for it - much wheelspin, crunching of (non syncro) gears. When the 6.5 litre Bentley (2nd pic) took off from the standing start - the ground fairly shook!
