Well, Targa West Rally ran a stage in Bullsbrook yesterday. LITERALLY outside our house. Streets were closed, obviously. The driveway you see in the pic, next to the streetsign is ours
All the neighbours set up our chairs and eskys behind the barricade (right outside our gate ) and we all watched these awesome cars fly by. They were a little delayed - there was a crash on the liaison stage (not anyone in the race) and by the time the last 10 cars came through, it was starting to get dark and several cars just missed some kangaroos that took exception to the loud noise
We had Lambos, Jags, Porsches, Ford GTs, Toranas and many, many more fly past our house :thumbup:
The Aussie (ok, he was born in NZ but we'll claim him ) V8 racing legend, and now Targa rally competitor Jim Richards, raced his Porsche - I think he's currently in 2nd.
Anyway, it was a great way to spend a few hours yesterday afternoon. Here are some pics - sorry about quality - must have had the camera on the wrong setting :spank:
Aussies, PLEASE note the wonderful Holden Torana A9X - :drool: :drool: :drool: Sorry there is no sound. It looked sexy and sounded even better ......
