Like the mk2 escort reminds me of when i dropped a 1760 lotus twin cam into mine years ago. Unusual to see a 4 door used as a rally car tho.

Thanks guys, I am much happier with these. Hopefully more to come, but mostly the historics now. I must admit, it was nice seeing the old MkI Escorts still going for it!
Getting there! Thanks to you guys

OK, maybe it's not great photographically but I actually really like Too Quick! It gives a real sense of the action which the others, good as they are, just don't.

I wouldn't actually call the last two failures. I think 'Too Quick' is great shot, and you could probably make something of 'Too Slow' with a quick rub of the sharpening brush over the front lamps and grill of the car and slightly tighter crop to loose some of the dead space to the left.

Great photos.
The Mk1 Escort photo takes me back to the days when I used to rally one.
Regards, Chris.
